Greetings and Salutations!
I thought it would be a good way to make new friends by finding some weight loss buddies! They don't have to be in person. Maybe there could be someone I can count calories with, figure out daily exercises, food intake, figure out what's good food vs bad food, etc.
It sounds like a great idea. Men and women alike come on in.
I'll start with why I want to lose weight. I'm scared I might be diabetic, but do to being a bit poor, I can't afford to go to a doctor to be tested. I've always been big and I've been worried about my weight. I don't have as much confidence as I use to and now I'm worried for my health.
I look at myself and say "I'm not that big. Not like some people."
Then I'll look at pictures of myself and videos of myself and I feel terrible. I don't believe in the whole 'cameras add 10 pounds' crap, but I feel I'm bigger than I think I am. If that makes sense xp .
Thank goodness my love tells me I'm beautiful just the way I am. But he's supporting me in wanting to lose weight. Lol He told me I could be 130 pounds or 1300 pounds and he'd love me either way just the same. If it weren't for him, then definitely I wouldn't be strong enough to go for this goal.
I am 5'10" and weigh about 285 pounds (last time I checked). I'll never be a size 3, but I don't want to be a size 30! I think for my body type, I am at the smallest a size 12. So my weight goal is to lose 100 pounds! After I lose that 100 pounds, then I might decide whether I want to lose more or not.
NEWCOMERS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!
(P.S. If there's a guild or anything like or if this is a second post I apologize. I couldn't find anything like that sweatdrop . But I still want to follow through with this! Best luck to everyone who wants to do the same as me!)
Alrighty I guess I have needed to make some rules.
1. Of course follow theToS and R&G on this site.
2. Please no soliciting. These people are here to help themselves to be better fit for their lives. They're not cash cows looking for an easy way out. I don't mind if you recommend a product that might help, but don't offer that you can "get us some for a cheaper price." If I were to want it that bad, I'd contact you or pm you. Otherwise please no soliciting.
3. No spamming or bumping.
4. No advertisements for weight loss products. Again it's the no soliciting policy I'm having put in place. I know some mean well, but still it's not a commercial paradise here. Just because we want to lose weight doesn't mean we want to buy every weight loss product we see.
