Need Accountability Partner!

New to the forum - but an oldie to the battles of weight loss! It's a joke in my family about "what new diet" I'm on when I see them.*sigh*

Truth hurts.

I'm a newlywed, and have gained a not-so-surprising 35lbs over the past 4 months (pre-wedding liquid diet didn't stick!). I'm now the heaviest I have ever been and am scared at the prospect of gaining more weight in fulfilling our desire to start a family in the upcoming year or so.

Looking back through all the diets I've been on, the only one that worked was LA Weight Loss - and not because of the diet. It was because I had someone scolding me when I cheated, and celebrating with me when I succeeded. I NEED that. My husband loves me "just the way I am", my friends could care less....and as much as I care....I can't do it on my own.

So...if you're interested in helping a determined girl out, let me know. I have 80lbs. to lose, and began my journey yesterday (yet again) to a healthier me. I'm desperate for someone who will communicate with me off the forum to hold me accountable to my goal and hopefully allow me to do the same for them.

Starting Weight - 220lbs
Goal Weight - 140lbs

Hope to hear from you!
 
Hey hey! :waving: I posted a "reply" on one of your pictures...it won't let me PM until I've been a member for 2 days...

But I'm excited to talk to you more! We're the same height with the same weight goal - seems like a good start. :)

:iagree:
The whole forum will be watching you if you do this.

But I really recommend learning to hold your self accountable. It's important for you to be able to learn self control and self awareness. Before/After you go to maintenance and there isn't anyone around, you need to be able to stay healthy on your own and not gain it all back. Like in the past.
 
What you are asking for is exactly what I am needing and looking for also. I've got great determination but when I start feeling like I need help I never have a partner. We definitely need to talk to each other on here and often. You and are are in the same weight range. I weigh 211 pounds and am wanting to get down to 140. I'm 5'6 btw. Let's do this. I'm gonna send you a private message tomorrow. Tonight it's 1:31am here and I'm sleeeeepy. Anyway, if you haven't heard from me when you get on here plz send me a msg.

To anyone else who wants to be buddies plz let me know. I'm open to whoever really wants to stick through this with me.
 
Actually I just realized I can't send you a pm until 2 more days. I'm from northeast, tn so we are even decently close to each other and around the same age (I'm 25). We are destined to be lol j/k ... but I'd like to know how you are planning to achieve your goal weight? I'm starting off with cutting back calories/portion sizes, no fried foods, water/crystal light only and occasional milk since I love it and it's healthy for you. I'm not sure what type of exercise I'll do yet but I will start off small...maybe 30 min a day for 5 days.
