new here and ready to lose weight

Hi my name is christy. I am 32 years old. I am starting my diet tomorrow and this time it is different. This time I am ready to commit to it. I am 5'2" and weigh 151. My goal is to lose 25 pounds. I weigh the same weight now then when I had my son 8 years ago. The sad part is that I lost all my weight after him. The older I get the more I put on. I am looking for a buddy that I can write to that will encourage me to do my best. I will in return try to do the same for you. I don't have a diet buddy here at home and need one to keep me on the diet wagon. Thank You Christy

Hey there Christy!


You will find loads of buddies right here! Down in the journal section there are some posters who do weekly journals, and there is a lot of support offered in each of them. Feel free to start a journal for yourself. Plus I believe we are going to be doing a week challenge of exercise. (That is that between us all we are striving for another 17,220mins of exercise) Join us....


Have a great day today!!

Hi Christy, nice to meet you. Deciding to "really" make the commitment is a big step. Like IG said this board is great for support and ideas because we are all different and have all different ways of doing things. Feel free to e-mail me through my profile anytime.

Hi Christy. I am also trying to lose weight and get to be around 129-130. I am 5'1 and have lost about 16 pounds so far. I am looking for a weight lost buddy to help encourage me to run the last leg of this race. Feel free to contact me if you wish. I have 2 kids. One is 6 and the other is 1 and 1/2. I still feel so fat..uuuggghh.
