Need a buddy!

Cyard · 12-29-2007, 06:53 AM

Hi all!

I've been South Beaching for about a month now and posting in the SB threads (those ladies are great!), but I feel like I need a buddy to bounce things off of and go through the journey together, any takers? I'm 29 (*gulp* for a little longer), need to lose about 80lbs or more. Currently I'm on SB but thinking of making the switch to Atkins. My loss is pitifully slow and I'm up again this morning.

Anybody want a buddy??

Hi! If you are still looking for a buddy, I'm here for you. I have been a lurker here on this board for years. I've lost weight doing both SB and Atkins. I've slowly fallen off of the wagon and decided to start Atkins again. I'm on Day 2 of induction and need to lose about 30 pounds. I'll be 35(ugh!) in 2 weeks and have found the weight creep back on this past year. If you want to switch to Atkins, I can help you out. It is different than SB. Let me know!

Cyard · 12-31-2007, 08:31 AM

Thanks, I'd love to be buddies

I'm still considering switching to Atkins. Hard to do when I'm munching on ww applesauce pancakes, legal on SB, not on the big A. I've lost big on Atkins before, but gained it all back. So far on SB i'm down 10lbs in a month...well, I gained 2 over Christmas, but now I'm back down LOL.

I have SO far to go though!

Pcola Girl · 01-02-2008, 11:17 AM

Hi everyone, Just wanted to see how you are today.
So far I have started the year off well, hope you have to.
Got my paper out and began planning my meals out better and not to overeat like I was doing. If I don't keep track of my meals I will make the meal with to high of carbs.
So I plan all three meals for the day and eat only them and not snacking between meals yet until I get back on track real good like I need to be.
Really I am doing induction all over again.
I have already lost alot of my weight but need to lose around 70 more and just cannot seem to get it the rest of it off.
I NEED HELP...

I am here most everyday so you all post often ok.

Cyard · 01-02-2008, 11:42 AM

I can't believe your in P'cola..right down the road!

I am looking for an online support friend. I am about to start the Atkins (on 7th Jan) and also have around 30 pounds to lose. If you fancy communicating with this chubby 48 year old (even more ugh than 35, but i still spend half my life on the water kayaking and swimming and at the beach, socialising and having fun). Also spend far too much time working and getting fatter while i do it. i travel a lot for work so end up eating out and drinking way too much.

cheers,
the fat pigeon

Carolina1977 · 01-02-2008, 04:12 PM

The Fat Pigeon · 01-02-2008, 04:42 PM

have added you to my buddy list, perhaps that will make a difference

Pcola Girl · 01-03-2008, 11:12 AM

Cyard, where do you live? I am liking Pensacola really well now, it was a big change moving here from Jacksonville but now that I am use to the smaller town its great, especially the traffic is not so bad here.
Our only child, a daughter moved here after her divorce so when my hubby semi-retired we moved here to be closer to her and the two grand children.
