Default looking for a friend

I'm not super new to this site I have been coming and going fora few years now and I am looking for an accountabili-buddy. I used to have one but fell out of touch when my life became to stressed and I let it efect everything about me (including my weight again) but now I have a less stressful job and am taking this seriously again. I'm doing this for myself and would love to share triumpths and sadness with someone who like me needs a shoulder to cry on every now and then. Anyone up for the challenege?

I like challenges... and I'm around a lot so I would love to be your friend/accountability buddy whatever you want to call it. I find it easier to do this with someone else rather than alone

My last semester in college I lost 50 pounds in about 5 or 6 months... Gained almost 20 back this summer and here I am again... in two weeks I've lost ten pounds so I'm pretty excited

This is what I came here for, to find someone, or even a group of people who I can celebrate my success with and motivate me when I'm feeling down.

You sound like me bbybear, I kept letting go of my healthy changes when work got stressful.

We need a support buddy match maker thing here!

This is why I came here too... my bff and I have been talking about accountability and we have that for each other to a certain extent, but maybe having other people on here that I don't know will help me. We can do this guys!

I need someone to hold me accountable as well....I moved out to a town with my job, I don't know a lot of people here, and I quit working to go to college full time. (majoring in radiology)

I'm a single mom to 2 boys!
I just need someone that I have to answer to like weekly...and to get on my back if I'm screwing up or not making progress!
Where's my dad when I need him!! lol...

I'd like an accountabili-buddy too! I'm an American student studying abroad in Australia, which means:

a) Lots of good food (Australia has the highest obesity rate of any country in the world right now) and
b) I haven't had time to meet many other like-minded women, most of my friends are quite thin and can't really relate.

I second what esoccer mom said, I need someone to "answer to" to keep myself motivated.

We should start pairing off since so many people have responded to this thread!
