Hi, I've had like ten million moments of "this is it, I have to lose weight", and this is the last time I'm going to say that. I'm so ready to lose weight. I'm turning 30 at the end of May and I refuse to enter my 30's feeling and looking this way. I live in the Chicago area and am looking for buddies in area or just online buddies to keep me going. This week, I measured around my waist and now just have to buy a scale to weigh myself to know exactly where I'm at. I know I have to lose about 70lbs-- to be honest, I'm afraid of getting on the scale, so I even need support for that!! Anyone want to buddy up to reach our goals?!! This is it people-- time for a change! : ) Lilian

Hey lillian, I feel the same way. I've also started so many diets but never kept any. I hope this time with the support of everyone i can keep going. If you ever need anyone to chat with just send me a message bacause it's definitely time we take control of our lives!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, I am from the Chicagoland area too. What part are you from? Let's buddy up. We can do this! I had lost 60 pounds. I have gained 20 of that back. I set a goal to lose 80 and I plan to meet that goal. Of course, I need support. So...lets go for it! Angie

Count me in, anything we can do to help each other because I totally know the feeling.
