Sometimes_gypsy Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Hey y'all,I'm looking for anyone(s) to be an accountability bud for weight loss. I'm going low carb b/c that works for me. I live in central Connecticut (transplant) and would love to meet people here but emails, NF forums, whatever form of communication would be awesome, too. LIttle about me: I'm looking to lose 100lbs long term, but focusing on just making progress every day on my diet. I'm 29, flirting with 30, and I dont want to go any longer this size or weight. I dont have health problems yet and I aim to keep it that way. I'm adding in walking for now, until I'm on a roll. I love books and movies of nearly all genres (who doesn't?) INTJ, interested in talking about anything else as well. I live to travel so tell me your travel stories, too! I'm also very focused on body positivity. I may not be super happy where I am right now but my body has carried me through the last 3 decades and I love it for that in all its plus-sized glory. I'm hoping to focus on the good to achieve better, rather than berate myself (or others) for past failures. On ward and upward! Drop me a line here or PM if you'd like to talk. Cheers.x Gypsy (Jess) 1 Quote Sometimes_gypsy "Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.

Hellany Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Hi! If you haven't already, the NF women's Facebook group is a good place to make a lot of friends and cheer each other on. There's a lot of inspiring then and now pics and they do fun things like flex Friday. Also I'm down to help in any way...never been an accountability bud before, but I can try.

StrokerMelo Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 Hey! Ok, let's start! How do we start? My aim is to lose 25Kg or 55lbs (I think, I live in Brasil we use metric system...), so, how do we gonna track our weight and motivate ourselves? Monthly? Weekly? Daily? But first things first: How I get one of those progress bars things??????? Edit: I'm a complete newbie to forums in general... 1 Quote StrokerMelo - AdventurerSTR: 0; DEX: 0; STA: 0; CON: 0; WIS: 0; CHA: 0. 0%0% Link to comment
Sometimes_gypsy Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 OK, I made a public thread to share on as a group. Espeically if anyone watns to join us. Adrianne, you're in Sweden. Stroker you're in Brazil, and I'm in the USA so I made this: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/72830-international-accountability-squad/ I hope that works, let me know if the link is bad. And it's open for anyone else to join in at any time! Quote Sometimes_gypsy "Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
