I just joined today and I am looking for some diet buddies! I need to lose about 80 lbs to be at a good weight for my body type. I am afraid to get on the scale these days because I fear that my weight has reached 245. I am 26 and live in the North Carolina area. I am desperate to change my life style and become the happy person I used to be before I gained all the weight 3 years ago. I too have struggled with my weight my whole life and it has truly been something that has set me back. I want to gain control and take better care of myself because I have a running list of health problems and I would love to accomplish this goal before my 27th B-day, not to mention I would love to get my body in shape to start a family. Through this website I hope to find great buddies and I hope to be a great source of support for someone else! I look forward to hearing from you all!!!!
Thanks in advance for responding to my cry for a friend!

Hello! I'm 26 years old. Single, divorced mom of 5 year old twins. I have struggled with my weight since my children were born. I also really need to get in shape, because I want more children. There is no way I could have kids right now and have a healthy pregnancy. I have started having more health problems. I've noticed it recently and seems to be that they are slowly creeping up on me. My aunt was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. That really scares me. Every doctors appointment I have gained a few more pounds. i'll just keep gaining if I don't do something now. I've got to the point where I wont' go places because of it. I'll have a hs reunion in a little over a year and despretely want to go to it. But if I look like this, I won't go. I would be really embarrased. I'll be your buddy!! Maybe we can help each other get thru this. Feel free to PM me and we can chat. Good luck!
MUST lose it for my health and self-esteem!!
