For the most part, it's just me. Sometimes my trainer will ask me what I've been eating, particularly if I've been off-plan for a few days, and that has sometimes been very helpful. Also, knowing that my SO will probably notice if I eat every last piece of food in the house is sometimes the only thing that stands between me and the fridge.

As a general rule, though, I agree with JayEll that I don't want my friends and family that involved in my weight situation. Particularly with my SO, I think it is very important that I be responsible for what I eat and when I exercise, and that he remain supportive but completely neutral on these issues. 1) We have enough stuff to fight about without adding my diet and exercise to the list and 2) It is important that I feel like he loves me the way that I am; that he isn't trying to make me skinnier or prettier. It's great when he compliments me, but I don't want him telling me that I shouldn't eat something or that I've put on a few pounds. That's my responsibility.

And my friends just don't want to hear the day-in day-out stuff. We talk about what I'm doing sometimes, but some of them are struggling with their own choices about their own food and exercise, so they don't want to hear a constant recitation of how many calories I'm eating or how much I've exercised. And while that stuff is endlessly fascinating to me; not so much for others. ;)

So really, it is 3FC where I pour out my heart about my diet and exercise. And I sometimes use the planning threads on 3FC to hold myself accountable. Honestly, this forum has been a huge source of support!

I am only accountable to me. I don't want someone to tell me I don't need that slice of pizza. If I'm eating a slice, it's to satisfy a real desire for it. If I don't have something "bad" occasionally, I'll end up face down in a box of Hostess cupcakes! I account for my treat in fitday and figure the rest of the day from there.
I have failed so many times in the past that only one friend knows I'm dieting. She has changed her body over the last few years through nutrition and faithful exercise, so we encourage each other. Went on a little shopping trip the other day and went out to eat. We read that menu cover to cover, discussed what we could have, then enjoyed our lunch! When people at work notice I'm doing something different, I just tell them I'm watching my cholesterol under doctor's orders, which is true.
For encouragement, I have my hubby, my son and my friend. Oh, and you guys! :D I would not be ten pounds lighter today if it weren't for 3FC. :yay:

I am pretty much on my own. I occasionally share things like 'oh I really want to lost X lbs by *insert time* or 'I lost 2 lbs!' with my friends or family (I am one of those people you know who is always on a diet/worried about their weight) but I never give out specific numbers. My hubby doesn't even know my life time highest weight. The only place I have ever admitted it was here.:(

Me too, Ally. I only admit my weight here and it feels good to talk about it openly. I don't want my husband to know 'the number'. I'm afraid it would change the way he sees me. I know he loves me through thick and thin, but I don't want to wonder what he's thinking about my weight!

I'd like to say that I hold myself 100% accountable, but my Dr. definitely also holds me accountable. It actually helps with my maintenance to know for certain that I will be weighed by him every 4 months and held accountable for keeping the weight off.

My DH was with me at first Dr.'s appt. and saw my true weight. He is very encouraging for me but has also never made me feel bad about my starting weight.

My greatest support comes from 3FC's. I'm much more likely to pour out my daily struggle here than with any family or friends. The people here are on this same journey and can identify with my battle much better than people that I actually know.

I am deathly afraid of this, too. I know it is completely irrational (I am smaller now than I was on our wedding day) but it scares the crap out of me. It would be too embarrassing to me to tell him that number.

It does feel good to say it here though! Like a sigh of relief...:)
