Does anyone have any suggestions on how to find a good accountability buddy? I'm a 5'6" 28m at 260 lbs. I've always had self image issues. Even when I was younger and I was in my prime I was always embarrassed to take my shirt off. A few years ago I was diagnosed with anxiety and shortly after that I was told it was depression. I've always been hard on myself to succeed, but guess I over did it and burned myself out. During high school I had to gain and lose weight for certain weight classes and I think that inadvertently turned me into a yoyo dieter. Over the years I would lose weight, then gain it plus 5 more pounds. I'd lose weight then gain it all back.
I'm so embarrassed with how I look now that I actually can't walk around my own apartment without a shirt on because I dont want to catch a glimpse of my reflection.
I'm ready to start taking care of myself mentally and physically. My wife and I want to start a family one day and I don't want to be one of those dads that can't keep up with there kids because he's too tired and out of shape.
I know it sounds weird, but I'd like to find an accountability partner that isn't a friend or family member. I'm too embarrassed to ask anyone and would feel like they are judging me if/when I slipped up(even though I know they wouldn't). Does anyone have any suggestions on finding someone to talk to? Its obvious from past experiences I can't do this alone. This is also my first post on here so hopefully the was the correct place to post this.
