Looking For A Weight Loss Buddy

I've been on the 'Calorie Count Diet' for like 2 weeks or so. I've already lost like 5 pounds. I have a tendency to binge when I'm bored or have nothing to do so I'd like to get a Diet Buddy so whenever I fee like eating some McDoanld's I have someone to bent to. Feel free to IM me at pointof.excess@gmail.com or drop me a comment here.

Hi groundbreaker, what's your weight range or how many pounds do you need to lose? That would help to find somebody who's in the same range as you.

I am 5'9" my weight is 178lbs. I am trying to lose at least 10 lbs but It seems way harder than anybody can think. If you are in the same range we can team up...

If anybody else within my weight range wants to join me, please do; I can use all the help I can get.

WE CAN DO IT :-)

i'm 5'11 and i'm at about 194 and i'd like to lose  30 or so before september.

Perfect; we can definitely help each other! I was 198 in January --only a little over 2 months ago)!!

I would also love to jump on board...I can totally relate to you as far as the "eating when you're bored" Feel free to email me (any of you) :) at Krewsie101@aol.com I was also looking for a "buddy" to communicate with on a regular basis to help each other stay on track! :) Kim

I could always use a buddy! I am the same way with eating when i am bored. I always find myself looking through the fridge when i have nothing to do.

I'm 5'7 and at 176-8 right now. (It's been going up lately... GRRRR!!!)

So, i've been doing pretty good lately. (Lost 12 pounds so far) but i've been slacking and could use a good push in the right direction and i always have a listening ear for anyone who needs it!!!

Do you guys mind if i add you all as friends?

Of course, I'de love to have a new buddy that I can relate to! :)

anybody knows how to do the friends list on calorie count? If yes could you create one so that we can start helping each other? We can really get something done if we team up since we are all on the same boat (same weight range, habits, goals....)

Let's do this as a team!

LOVE the friends list idea...wish I knew how to do it haha BUT count me IN

Hi my name is cheryl and I have about 72 pounds to lose and a buddy would be great! I myself love fast foods too. My hubby is tring to help by bringing home salads or wraps instead of burgers and fries which I think is great because it shows that he's on board to help me and he understands that it will make me feel better.  Also, I have a seven month old that will be crawling/walking shortly so I'd like to lose some of the weight before that so I can keep up with him.  My e-mail is c_engley@hotmail.com or just leave me a reply here.  Hope to hear from anyone:)

just stopping by to let you know that if you click on a person's name to see their "profile" and then click on "add to friends," you'll soon have a list of friends. if you "friend" each other, then you will be able to read each others' journals.

hey girls or boys!  i would also like tofind another diet buddy.   its fun to challenge eachother with tummy crunches and fill eachother in on our success, or b there for 1 another when times get bad as they sometimes do. send me a private message 

You guys sound a lot like me, I'm 5'8 and 195.. I've just lost my first five and I'm hoping for another 40. I would love to have some buddies going through the same thing!

Hey- wow, you all are in my boat too. I've also been on the "calorie count diet" for 2 weeks and lost 5 pounds. I'm 5' 10" and weigh about 184 at the moment. I apparently need to lost around 25 pounds.... yikes! We can keep each other on track.

I'm 167.33 lbs @ 5"9, male. I need to lose another 11 lbs, and I think it might be helpful to have a buddy with similar goals. Add me if you want.

Hi all...well I guess  the best I can say is I am old(er)...with alot of health problems  that has decrease my ability to be real active...I have lost 5 inches in heigth and I am now 4'11"...I quit smoking last May and right now it feels like it was the worse mistake of my life...I have gained 50 pounds and now weigh 220.  I'm not happy, my doctor is very unhappy, and my dog is worse.  I can't take him for walks because he is stronger than I am.

I am home alone 99% of the time  since my sons are all grown and scattered hither and you...hubby is working or in the bar.  I really could use some support.

Alright so if anyone would like to partner up with me I would be so very appreciative.

I know you are trying to get someone close to the range you are in, but with my weight it might be hard...but anything would help.
I can be reached at msn:  pvtsteel@hotmail.com

Hope to hear from you.

Sandy, I know the weight gain is hard to deal with, but believe me you gave yourself the best gift ever by quitting smoking!!!!  I quit 12 years ago.  It was the hardest thing I've ever done.  Just take it one day at a time.  If you can conquer nicotine, you can do anything!!!!!!

You all sound alot like me too.  I've just lost my first 6.5-7.5 (dang scale won't stay the same two days in a row..) I would love to have buddies helping me out.  I am 5'8 and 195.5..  I have been on the calorie count diet for 23 days and it seems to be working. I am still working on figuring out he right balance of carbs and proteins, Any help would be appreciated!!

cjeanr, I think we are exactly the same in height and weight right now. 

It's good to know that there are alot of us going through the same thing.

Sandy,

Hang in there with the smoking thing.  As yoyonomo said you did give yourself the best gift ever by quitting.  You are doing something about the weight now so it will all work out.  I quit smoking 5 weeks ago and it was the best decision of my life.  I would never quit before because I was scared of the weight gain but I reached a point to where it was worth gaining weight to quit smoking.  I would rather be able to laugh and exercise without coughing all the time.  It doesn't matter to me that you weigh more than I do or not I will be glad to be some sort of support system for you.  As long as we help one another that is all that matters.
