Looking for a penwho is trying to lose weight without surgery
Hey! I am a 27 yr old momma of 2 (boys, ages 2 1/2 and 1) who is trying to lose weight on my own before consulting for surgery. I am a military wife, currently living in Virginia and would love someone to talk to every day or every other day! I have tried to find a WL penpal before, only they all needed to lose 30lbs or less (nothing compared to my 150lb goal). They also felt very negative, like every time we messaged each other, they complained about EVERYTHING instead of us inspiring/motivating each other. It was very draining and bummed me out.
So, I am trying again to find the RIGHT penpal who a) understands needing to lose a lot of weight, b) can be a positive source of motivation (as I will be for you), and c) can message/email several times a week so we can hold each other accountable!

Hi hi! Marisha here!
I'm look for a buddy, too. I'm a fiction write who lives in Kansas City. I just turned 37 and want to get this weight off! While I'd love to get weight loss surgery, it's just not possible at this time so I've done a lot of research, have found a plan that looks like it will work for me, and am putting together all the details to begin (lots of prep work). I was thinking of a start date of Oct 1st, but I could move it up a week or too if that works better for you. I want to lose 180 pounds! So we're close on our goals. I'm all about focusing on the positive and seeing the silver lining.
I want a buddy to that I cheer and can cheer me. Someone who is all about getting things done. Do you use Voxer? It's an app that you can record messages, text, and send pics for free. It might be a good option as I receive hundreds of email a day for my job. If you (or anyone else who if looking for the same thing we are--I wouldn't mind having a small group) are interested in buddying up, please message me at [email protected]. I will do my best to keep a look out for a message from you. Please put PEACHY PENPAL in the subject line so I can pick your email out of the sea of mail. ;)
Hope to hear from you soon!
Hi I'm Sandra. I'm 30 years old and I am above 300lbs. However...I have lost 45 already...and looking to lose A LOT more.
I currently live in Fresno California (about 3 hours from LA) and I am looking for buddies to work out with. I have a friend who lives in South Carolina and every day we would text message each other our work outs. Well unfortunately she had a tragic loss in her family and she no longer has the momentum. Although I am doing everything I can for her and she KNOWS I will be here for her when she's ready, I want to continue my workouts.
Because of the awesomeness that we have started...I realized via cell phone (APP, so no phone numbers are exchanged) I am able to work out with whoever wants to exercise. So that is why I'm here. I already have a group started...but its REEEEEEEEALLY SLOW. My goal is to have 2 or 3 workouts posted each day.
All of this will make more sense if you check out the link below. It is a local womens only group, but I am able to extend the WORKOUT version (vs personal in town meetups) to those far and wide. Its free, easy, and innovative so if you want to just at least check it out let me know ok! =)
PS: I'm looking for people who will actually POST workouts...vs join and never do anything :P
Its a motivational mobile group. Check it out....btw this is not spam.. !

Hey there! My name is Billye. I am a 23 yr old momma of 2 kids .. a boy who is almost 7 and a daughter that just turned 5. I live in Tennessee and am very desperately wanting and trying to lose weight as well. I feel like ive tried about everything and am considering surgery but still arent all the way convinced that surgery is what I want to do. I weigh about 357 right now and would like to lose about 200lbs but need some female support. None of my family is overweight but me and my fiance is trying to lose weight with me but he only needs to lose about 30lbs and he doesnt quite understand what its like. I am a stay at home mom so im available to email/message whenever.
