Would like to lose 100 lbs; need a buddy!

[KimmieCup86]

Hey y'all. I am in desperate need of weightloss buddies or at least someone who can help me feel less alone in this journey. I feel so overwhelmed. Ideally I need to lose about 100 lbs but it seems impossible. I'm an emotional eater who has been big all my life but WANT to make a change.

I need support and help with motivation.

Thanks for listening!

Thank you!!

Hey kimmieCup86,
We all are here to help you, and nothing is impossible in this world. So, keep smiling and start with some workout and contribute 7 min for a fast walk, 7 min for lunges and easy push-ups.

Kimmie, I would suggest you start a thread in the diary section, there you will find plenty of buddies to help you along the way.

Hey Kimmie! I need to lose 30 more pounds, lost 30 already. I keep a diary on here, and you are very, very welcome to join in on the conversation there and/or make your own diary and let me know on my diary so I can maybe be of support! I will stay on this site even past when I lose the weight because the community here is so supportive and great. Plus I need to be sure I stay on the right track and don't gain it all back again, for the umteenth time! I am trying a low carb/intermittent fasting diet, but the people who I chat with here are doing all different paths and we all support each other. What most of us have in common is that we have dieted so much that it is now darn hard to get the weight off. We all can also relate to backsliding because of emotional eating!!

Welcome, and I wish you a wonderful path back to health! I can say after losing the first 30 pounds, all the effort is more than worth it!!!

Hi, I'll be glad to help you in case you need support. I was in a similar case. I wanted to lose less weight but I felt like I hit a plateau. I'd advise you, if you feel bad and feel like eating: first, swap your favorite foods to healthier ones. Second, try to solve the emotional issue you are facing with. If you want help on that, feel free to hit me up.
I used to struggle with those issues a lot.
Also, fasted cardio can be incredibly beneficial. That means at least 30 minutes of medium-intensity exercise in the morning, on an empty stomach. That helps you to utilize fat stores.
Hope this helps!
