After many half-hearted attempts at losing weight over the years, I went to the doctor's today and saw a number that was one pound away from my highest weight ever, and I decided I don't want to see a new "highest weight ever". I usually power through about a month of a diet change before self-sabotaging and slipping back into carefree eating habits.
One thing I think is missing from all my attempts is accountability. I've always been active and strong, so I barely feel accountable to myself ("I can still do [whatever exercise], it can't be that bad!") This time around I want to promise results to someone other than myself.
My starting goal is to lose 10 pounds, with a stretch goal of 20. I see so many inspiring stories on here about people who have lost many times that, and while I know my story won't be as dramatic, just those 10 pounds still feel insurmountable right now. I'm hoping there is someone out there in the same boat as I am (or a different boat entirely!) who might want a friend and accountability buddy for the next few months, or however long it takes.
I've spent 10 minutes trying to figure out how to end this. Ummm can we be friends?
