I need a weight loss buddy. I really want someone who is going through what I am going through to help me through this body makeover. I am desperate to change my life, and after YEARS of trying, I am finally committing. Is anyone else also starting a weight loss journey who would like to stay in contact with me for guidance and support while we do it???
I am very overweight. I have always had problems with my weight, but I used to be athletic. When a sports injury took me out for months and I needed surgery, I never got back into shape, and I am getting out of control. I have a very supportive, wonderful, loving boyfriend, but talking to him about my weight does not make me comfortable, because no matter how much I say I am dieting, him and his family just tell me that I am silly, and I am not that overweight. But I don't understand what they mean, maybe they are just trying to be nice and make me feel better but the truth is, I am severely overweight. Right now I am at 257 pounds, and I used to be 175 give or take a few pounds before my surgery which was only 3 and a half years ago.
I need help, and I need to start changing my life TODAY. PLEASE contact me if you are willing to make this change with me!

They are being kind (they think), but they are not being true. It would be both kind AND TRUE to tell you, "we love you and would like to support you in losing weight, which you need to do".
We're all here for you! God bless.
