Seeking like minded individuals

Many people here have probably realised that few people on this (or other weight loss forums) actually reach goal, and this is a bit of a concern for me.  Personally, I'd like to be in regular contact with people who are going to successfully reach goal, especially this year.  I feel that if I'm around successful people, I'm more likely to be successful.

 If you feel that you will reach goal this year (or perhaps early next year) and you have various supports/motivations that make you feel that this is likely, please post here or send me a message.

I'd like to have a chat/email/forum thing going, where we are all in contact with each other, get to know each other and support each other in times when we fail to lose weight.

Thanks.

I believe everyone here feels they will reach their goal. Some may have slip ups now and then and leave for a bit, but they usually come back. Weight loss is a constant struggle, but it doesn't mean they aren't motivated to reach their goal. There are plenty of people here for support and to motivate others just a look on the forums will show you that.

I wish you luck! :)

I started this site about a year ago. I am faithful to logging everything in, I am faithful to my exercise. I never really hit my goal but became happy where I was at. Maybe my goal was a little out of reach for my body. Anyway, because of the exercise (I like weight lifting), I fell about 10 lbs short of my goal. I could lose about 5 lbs which I work hard at most of the time but because of the noticeable gain in muscle over time, I don't think my original goal makes much sense. All that being said, this site is what got me to where I am. I consider myself a success. Every aspect of my life has improved because of the changes I have made. I know that you can find the support you need here. Weight loss doesn't happen overnight, so if you can stick to what you are doing you will get there!
