Hi Mike let's do this. An accountability partner is just what will get us to our goals. Still interested? What date shall we begin? Online only or calls as well? Let's decide initially on what we need from each other to be specifically accountable for. Diet, exercise, encouragement? My name is Annette

Is there anyone interested in beginning an accountability partnership to support each other in staying on track with our lifestyle plan?

Hi everyone,
Is this a thing? Accountability partners? Texting buddies? I'm kind of hoping so.
I've been struggling for a little while now which I posted about elsewhere, and I've been racking my brain to come up with something that might help. Because of my schedule I'm not able to attend the support groups hosted by my surgeon's office each month and I don't really know anyone else going through anything similar with whom I could commiserate.
In late November 2016 I was sleeved. My highest weight pre-surgery was 347lbs. My weight going into surgery was around 280lbs or just under and my current weight fluctuates between 196-201lbs. At 5'5" I'm hoping to get to at least 150lbs before my excess skin surgeries (for which I have no dates, I just know I'm going to have them probably in early 2019). I think this amount of weight loss is completely doable, but I'm having a hell of a time remaining accountable to myself. I've also found it motivating in the past to have another person kind of working in tandem with me.
I was wondering if there was anyone who might be in a similar-ish boat and would like to be accountability/texting buddies? I'm hoping to get back to basics with my diet (have considered doing a sleeve reset diet for a few days) and have a gym membership but find myself not using it. I'd prefer to workout at home but it's hard to get cardio in at home. It would be nice to have someone to check in with about our workouts, exchange recipes or meal planning ideas with, and to support and encourage to meet their goals.
About me: I'm 30, in a long-term relationship, dog and cat mom, full-time student, work part-time, have a very weird schedule, and am also in the midst of some very lame Seasonal Affective Disorder. Really love yoga, one day in the far future would be interested in crossfit, like pushing myself (except for when I don't). I struggle with discipline as far as fitness goes but am ready to sacrifice what is necessary to finish making my dreams a reality. Just hoping to do it alongside a new friend.
Anyone interested?
P.S. If this topic somehow isn't allowed, I apologize.
Hi Ahappycamperi would love to be you accountability partner. I see we have similar goals. You game?

I will to. I definitely have this issue. How do you access the podcast and what is the title and author of the book?
