Talking Need a buddy...Losing approx. 50 lbs.

Hi. I'm just starting this program tonight. I am currently at 164 lbs. *Pay no attention to what my stats say*

I would love to lose to approx. 120 lbs. Anyone wanna help? Let's help one another!!

I'm in north Texas and I find that I work best when I've got a friend to help!

I'm about the same weight you are and I just started again for the umpteenth time. I want to lose about 50 pounds as well. Sometimes I think it is impossible. I lose weight for about 2 weeks and then it stops. Then I give up and go off the diet. I just don't know how to get over the 2 week hump and keep my weight moving down. I'm going to start going to the gym and see if that helps but I don't know. I'm also not going to get on the scale because I think that really defeats me when I see the scale going up or not moving.

I started a bit higher but I've already lost 9 pounds. I've got a ways to go til I hit my target. Its been very difficult for me to lose weight in the past. This seems to be working better than anything else!

I've been on this 9 days with no cheats. I hope the loss continues. Even though I've lost 9 pounds, I don't know where I lost it from. I don't notice a difference... I hope it soon starts to become noticable.

I look forward to having a buddy to talk with and hope that will help keep me on track.

Hi Brandi,
I'm from Texas also, would love to do this buddy thing. It's always easier when you have someone to work with. Good Luck with your LC'ing, we can all get through this together.

Let's be LOSERS!!

Me too! Me too! I'm getting ready to move back to Texas in about 2 weeks (never should have left ) ANd I too would like to lose about 40-50lbs total. My big goal is to get into a size 8 or 10. It's doable...I've done it before without atkins, but I know that atkins is a lot easier for me. Please PM me or email me so we can support each other. My AOL id is Sybil 3895 and we can chat on there...I hope to hear from you all soon!
