Female Gym Buddy / Weight-Loss Buddy Urgently Wanted!
Hi everyone, I am navigating through my weight-loss journey. You all must understand the pain, suffering, and self-doubt if you have ever tried to shape your body and curves. I am not sure if I’ve come to the right place, but I’d like to give it a try here.
I just feel lonely lately, and I hope to find a fellow lost soul here to monitor each other’s progress and keep each other company along this challenging journey.
I go to the gym three times a week, but there are days when I just slack off for an entire week. My weight is still within the average range, so I am targeting a reduction in my body fat percentage.
I know I am not the only one doing this, but I always feel like I am the only person on Earth trying to build a better version of myself, especially on my way to the gym. And I have no one to share my little wins with.
I am a stress eater. I especially crave sweet foods and tend to eat before going to sleep when I am upset, even if I am not hungry at all. That’s why I have gained so much weight over the years. After months of trying, I think that bad habit is under control now. It would be so great if I had someone to cheer me on when I succeed in controlling my urge to eat at night.
Things I would like to clarify beforehand:
I don’t do extreme dieting, such as eating only xxx or skipping meals.
I don’t take any medication.
I would like to follow a healthy diet, such as reducing my intake of sugar or carbs.
I would like to build some muscle while losing some fat.
I would adopt a cardio + strength-training approach.
I already have a training plan, so I just need someone to monitor my progress.
I hope you can sometimes ask about my progress. If every day is too frequent for you, that’s totally fine! And please scold me if I’m not going to the gym (maybe gently, please 😂). I would do the same for you, or tailor my check-ins to your needs.
We can also do a monthly or biweekly review to look back at our progress and figure out what we should improve or work on next.
That’s all I can think of for now. I am looking for female accountability partners, as I am female as well.
