KIDA!

Hi, I am starting Monday and would LOVE to have a partner. We could email one another because the buddy system has always been a HUGE help. I am going to Vegas in 3 weeks and all I need to lose is about 6-8 pounds. I have been on Atkins for 2 months and have lost 12 lbs. I went from a size 9 to a 5. Either way, I have a sexy dress that I HAVE to get into...so I would love to help you and inspire you.

Here is my email address: maraconn@hotmail.com.

I live in Florida, single mom, 31....

Talk to you soon...

Well...this looks like the place to be. I was on SBD since Monday 9/29 and blew it today. That's usually my MO. I would love some help/support when it comes to this diet. I would like to lose about 25-30 lbs and at my age it's getting tougher to get those lbs off. Add me to your list at sscheuring@cox.net Thanks and good luck....Sherry

Hi! My name is Emily and I am 25 living in NE Ohio. I too, am starting Monday. My cousins called me a few weeks ago raving about how much weight they had lost on this South Beach Diet. It sounded hokey to me, but when I read the book, I was really interested. They are both in phase three now and say that they feel great and that it really has become a way of life. My cousin Jerri Lynn went from about an 8 to about a 4/5. Her 6's are falling off of her. So, I'm going to do it! I have a good 10-15 pounds to lose so this might be the jump start I was looking for. I saw many replies to this post - maybe we could all make a list-serve and group email back and forth? The more support the better! My email is ejbou@yahoo.com - please email me if you would like another buddy! We can do this! -Emily :)

I hope there's no limit on how big this 'support group' can get, because I would love to join into the group. I am 23 years old, and over the past two years have gained about 20 pounds that I would like to lose, on top of another 10 or so. Being a part of a group would be a much easier way for me to do this. My email is Bobbkat79@juno.com, if anyone would like to be an email buddy with me.
