I Need Buddy Support:)
 

Hi, my name is Danielle, I'm 21 and in the Tampa area. I just moved here and I don't know anyone. I desperately need a weight loss buddy. My boyfriend would be a terrible one because he is so damn skinny, lol! I need someone who knows how I feel and what I am going through to help motivate me. I'll motivate you too! Help! I am tired of being fat.

Hi Danielle!

If you are just looking for online support, I'd be glad to give it to you. I am 22 yrs. old, from Massachusetts, and I too am sick of being fat. My bf is 6'2" and weighs 165 soaking wet :p He can maintain that weight eatting whatever he wants and as much as he wants...he has a high metabolism, we should all be so blessed! :lol:

I started trying to lose weight in March. I joined Curves and on my first weigh in/measure I was at 220.5 - yuck... I didn't lose much my first month, but as of now, I have lost about 18# total... I'm getting so close to "ONEderland" and I can't wait to make it there!

I don't know how much weight you have to lose, but I want to get down to like 170, so I have quite a bit still to lose myself and could be here for you if you'd like ;)

You sound like my perfect weight loss buddy! But...I think I have you beat. My boyfriend is 6' and 135! Damn him! LOL. I weighed 210 yesterday. Bleh. My ideal weight is no less than 160. I would love to be 170-175. That's a good weight for me. Of course, when I weighed that much, I thought I was fat...if I only knew...argh. We have very similar goals! So...how do you want to do this? Through journals, email? Heh, I'm not quite sure:) It's so nice to have support. This site is great. Thanks!

Hi Danielle & Jenn!

My name is Becky, I'm 19 and live in NY. My boyfriend is very skinny as well and is trying to be supportive but it's so hard because he doesn't know exactly what it's like! I'm @ 225 and have been at this for a few weeks. Haven't weighed myself again though - I'm too scared!! Anyways I just wanted to say hello and I'm here if you guys want to talk!!!

Thanks!
Becky

I can't even imagine Tim weighing any less than he does, he's already a rail... your bf must be a twig!!!

We can do this through psoting on here or through email and AIM/Yahoo or any combination of those things. My email and everything is in my profile if you want to contact me that way and if not, I'll look forward to hearing from you on here!

Hey Becky! Like I said to Danielle, I'm more than willing to be your buddy too! You can feel free to IM me or email or send me a PM, or we can jus chat/keep track of each other here!

Hey guys. For now, I will just be posting in here. Somehow, I'm terrible at returning emails, but good at replying here, lol. And yeah...my boyfriend is a twig! But I like skinny boys and he likes fat chicks, so I guess it works out, lol. I'm glad to have you both as weight-loss buddies. I'm doing pretty well today...so far:) I don't think my info is in my profile, but I'll put it there right away. Good luck.

Hello my name is Heather I am 21 years old and looking for a diet buddy as well. I currently weigh 309 and am on the atkins diet to try and loose 100 lb. I have PCOS Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and i am trying to lose weight to make life easier on me and be able to try to get pg. Thank you.

I just wanted to say hello and see how you guys have been the last few days:) I've been doing ok. My eating habits have seen better days, but I've been working out just like I should. I hope you are all doing well. Feel free to email me if you need support or just someone to talk to. Ciao.
Danielle

Hey Ladies:)
 

How have you all been? Post and let us know. I'm feeling really sleepy at the moment. I need someone to tell me to get off my lazy arse and excersise!!! I'll tell you the same, lol! Pilates...I had a pilates tape once...accidentally left in 3000 miles away. Heh. It was pretty tough. Definetely a good work-out. Keep it up!

Good afternoon
 

I was kind of sick for two days...so I didn't excercise! But I'm back on track now and feeling better. How have you ladies been? I will be leaving today for Connecticut and then a road-trip to California where I'll probably eat like crazy! Nah...I'll tone it down, lol. But I love driving cross-country and eating at greasy little cafes in the middle of nowhere! I really do! I don't know if I will have internet access or not, but I'll try:) I'm bringing my workout video to California and I'm going to swim my butt off in all the hotel pools! Yeah! LOL. Ok, I think I need some sleep. Ciao!

Back from Vacation...
 

Wow, it's been about three weeks, eh? I've been on a family road trip for much too long, lol. First, I flew up to Connecticut and then drove (with my mom and sister) to California and back for my cousins' high school graduation. Oi. We spent a total of eight and a half days in the car! I didn't get a chance to do any kind of working out the whole time. I haven't weighed myself yet, but I'm not looking forward to it. And to top it off, I think my skinny boyfriend got skinnier! I wasn't here to feed him, lol. I'm exhausted, but determined to get back into working out and feeling better. I really feel like crap. Bleh. I hope you all have done better than I have in the past few weeks. Let me know! Sorry to have been gone so long, but I didn't have internet access most of the time. Good luck, ladies! Ciao.

I was reading one of your previous messages, anyway after I had my son who is now 26 I weighed in at 140 the day I had him - I would KILL to weigh that again, anyway, after I had him I was down to 122 and couldn't believe how FAT I was - man would I give anything to be that "FAT" again!!! Anyway hang in there and get back on track and you will be fine. God Bless You.

I'm glad you are doing so well! I don't even want to talk about how I did over the vacation, lol! I have been pretty sick for the past three or four days, so I didn't start working out again until today. It's been so long. It seemed so much harder! I'm going to stick with it though. I am now a blonde...and I want to be a HOT blonde, lol...workouts, here I come:) I'm not sure if I have gained weight or not. Before I left, I was weighed at a clinic and they said 207...but...the scale at my mom's said 217 and so does my scale at home! I don't want to believe that! Hopefully it's just water weight from spending four+ days in the car (each way). Oh well...back to square one! Damn. I guess I will have to try harder this time.

Thanks Jenn:)

I worked out yesterday, but have already lost inspiration today, lol. I think a better sleep schedule is in order. I'm still pretty off balance from all the travel. I'm gonna try to work out today, but first I have to attack the huge pile of dishes in my sink...not to mention the laundry. Argh. LOL. But housework is a tiny work-out in itself. Heh.
