Hi all!!

I'm new here today and really need a buddy!! I have 100+ lbs to lose and so I know it'll be a hard journey...I know I'll cope much better if there's someone to walk with me! I'm 34 years old (ouch!) and the single mum of a 12 year old son. I have gained my weight over the past few years, my powers of denial are huge!! I'm ready now though, it's time! I can often lack motivation and I'm definitely a lazy mare at the best of times...if there's anyone out there who'd like to kick my butt occasionally I'd be eternally grateful! ( I'll be more than happy to do the same for you!) Hoping to hear from you.....

Hello,

MY name is Shelley. I would love to be your buddy. I have over 100 pounds to lose as well. It is hard and I need the occasional kick in the butt. I'll pm you my email addy and you can email me when you are ready.

Hi SystemAddict and Shelley! I can be a good butt kicker!!! (I just can't reach my own)! I have over 100 pounds to lose and would love whatever support and inspiration I can get. I'm full of encouragement and would love to help hold both of you accountable. Let's get this adventure started and never look back with regret. This is the last summer I will spend fat!

Hello my name is Felicia and I am 27. I have about 100 pounds to lose also and I am pretty good about staying motivated and helping others. My problem is that I don't do very well when the weight stops coming off. I know that my body needs time to adjust and blah blah blah but at the same time there is this voice in my head that tells me that "I am working out and dieting for nothing." I really need help keeping that voice out when the time comes.

I have been trying to lose weight for 8 years now and my weight goes up and down a lot but mostly up. I am ready for a change NOW and I am not giving up this time.

Do you have room for one more?

Hi Ladies, hope there's enough room to squeeze me in. i too would love to be part of a buddy system as i am very determained to get this weight off me. I have lost a couple pounds so fat but everyday i have to re-commit myself and this journey i know will be a long and difficult one. Nevertheless giving up is not an option, so i know if we stick together we can all achieve our goals.

I have about 100 pounds I'd like to lose and I need some motivation. Any chance I can join in too?
I get excited in the beginning, but after a few weeks it dies and I'm back to my old unhealthy ways. It'd be great if I can get a little kick in the butt every once in awhile.

I say the more the merrier.....how would all of you like to start a thread that we can go to and check in whenever we need to talk. We can do it in the 100 club or we can just do in in misc.

What do u think???

I think that would be awesome. We can do it wherever you choose. Let me know. I think this is going to be a good deal.

Hopefully you can all find it with this link but if not the title is "counting down from 100" it's in the 100 club.

I hope to see you all in there.
