Seeking buddy with a lot to lose

Hi

I'm a 35 year old female with about 11st to lose, seeking a buddy to chat to along the way.

I know losing 11st is going to take a very long time, and I have a track record of losing several stones, falling off the waggon, and then piling it all back on plus more on top, which is how I've reached this size in the first place.

In my heart of hearts, I know I've got to do something about this, but it's hard work when nobody understands how you feel, and I thought maybe finding a weight loss buddy, would help me to maintain my motivation, and hopefully make a good friend or two along the way.

Anyone else out there in a similar position?

Don't hate me cause i'm american!

I want to lose a bunch of weight also and this is the best site i've found by far for online support...I'd like to lose 60 lbs or 4 stones Ever since I started taking a certain medication I've completely porked out/gotten big...it takes a toll on my metabolism.
So in answer to your question, vegasbobs, YES i can completely empathize.

Would you be interested in checking in daily and reporting on our exercise activities and diet?

Old, fat and desperate!

Hiya.
Just found this site and noticed your message.
As it's almost 9 months since you posted it I was wondering how you are getting on?
I too have a lot of weight to lose-about 10st.
I am almost 49yrs old and I would love to have made a good start on my weight loss by my 50th birthday next December.
Like you I am a yo-yo dieter.
Any tips and support would be really appreciated.

In the same situation

Hi, I`m 35 next week and in the same situation as you apart from the fact that I`ve already started dieting and have lost 31lbs since the beginning of jan.
I know exactly what you mean about yo-yo dieting as I`ve been there and got the medals from more than one battle.
This time though I feel different and more focused on what I want to achieve. My aim was to loose about 11stone as well (in an ideal world) and with 2 of them off already its only 8 3/4 to go.
Contact me at essextreehugger@btinternet.com if I sound the type of person you think could me a diet buddy along the way.
Oh by the way, I`m English and live an hour and a half east of London.
I look forward to hearing from you soon and if I dont, then good luck anyway and I hope you reach your goals.
