Arrow Help I Really Need A Buddy!!!!

HI my name is Julie, I am 27 years old and I really have a lot of weight to loss. I am currently 255 lbs and want to drop at least 100 lbs. I am thinking about joining Weight Watchers but am not to sure yet. Just a little more about myself..... I am a full time nursing student, work part-time as a optician, have been married for just over a year now and have a beautiful 12 year old step daughter. If you need a buddy like I do I would love to chat.:

Hi Julie,

Take care,
Susanne

Hey there Julie, congrats on your new road to weight loss! I am a 22 year old nurse, just finished school a couple of years ago and I feel your pain! Its a tough career to go into and def takes special people. What are you in school for? LPN or RN? Are you going part time or full time? I remember studying for those damn chemistry exams and eating a whole box of cheese its!! This is part of the reason I am on this website!! I would love to buddy up and shed some pounds and could probably even help you get over the stresses you are running into with school!
Hope to talk soon!!! Good luck with school!!

I am also a nursing student and know that the stress of school and a job are definetly contributing to my recent weight gain. I am 24 and have spent the majority of those years battling my weight.

I am going to try the low cal-low fat approach. I also considered WW but I don't have the time or money for it right now.

If you are interested in another buddy- let me know. My aim is Dakotasweett2!

Hope to hear from you and best of luck
