I just joined today and I'm looking for an online buddy (more than one is fine!) to lose weight with; preferably someone who needs to lose about the same amount of weight so we can reach our goals at the same time. I'm one of those people who "carries my weight well", whatever that means so when I tell people I want to lose about 30 lbs they think it's too much. According to the various online calculators, I should be anywhere from 139 - 143 lbs. I'm currently 165.

Time to get going on this. Who's with me? :-)

I should also add that at home I have a treadmill, exercise bike, various hand weights, jump ropes, etc... so I intend to pair that with practicing portion control. My eating habits aren't too bad (not a lot of junk), I just need to eat more frequently instead of waiting until dinner time and then pigging out.

hi, my name is Stacey and I reside in Philadelhia. My weight goal is 145. Right now I am at 207. tell me your secrets to eating. I have problems staying away sometimes from the fries.
