Need Buddy / Mentor

Hello, I am a 24-year-old New Yorker, in a domestic partnership, no kids, and I am looking for a buddy who is around my age, and also has about 150-200 lbs to lose - I would prefer to speak to someone who is already banded, although I would also like to speak to someone who is recently banded, so that I know we are on the same page. I have been going through some rough mental times and would like an email buddy so that we could communicate on rough times, when temptation strikes, and when the mind games are nipping at my ankles. Let me know if you wanna be my accountabilibuddy! Thanks!

I have been banded almost 3 yrs and you are welcome to email me anytime for support. I might not be exactly the age/stage you are looking for but would be more than willing to lend some experience. Sounds like you are struggling just a bit. Could help you over the hump.
