Hi everyone!

I'm graduating this year and hoping to lose a stone to a stone in a half in time for the ceremony.

My weight loss process has always been a bit slower due to my pcos and hypothyroidism but would love some weight loss buddy's, students dealing with cooking for themselves would be ideal, to help one another with motivation and staying on track.

Feel free to add me, message me. I'd love to hear from you

  • I am 23, however looking to loose a lot more than 20 pounds. I work full time and have two kids so I understand the "student cooking" aspect. My biggest thing I've learned Is to keep it simple. I've tried all the fancy healthy stuff but too much work and money for what I get in the end.

    Anyways, feel free to add me if you'd like :)

    Sounds interesting! I'd definitely like to keep in touch throughout the next few months with our progress if that would be good for you?

    I'm 22 and looking to lose 15lbs through following IIFYM. I find it easier to stick with than trying to eating clean 100% of the time.

    Added you all! I'm soooo down! :smile: let's do thisss!

    Stats:
    23 years old
    I weigh 115 pounds

    I lost 20 pounds last year and gained almost all of it back. (Howeveerr, I have to say that it looks a hell of a lot different due to rigorous weight training and lifting sessions in my routine that I've kept doing for 2 years) I want to get down to 101 pounds because I know it'll so be worth the hard work.

    I'm 27 and would like to lose another 15 - 20lbs....already lost the first 8lbs. Working full time at a desk job really caused me to become a couch potato for the last two years. I'm going to do a slow cut and hopefully be at my goal by mid to late spring this year.

    Hey there! I am 27 y.o. and I've lost about 30lbs so far - still 10 to go! I know it is not a lot of weight but the great thing is that I haven't changed too much in my life to reach it. I tried out a lot of fancy diets, products and so on... But as some of you already said: the simple things are the most successful ones. :-) Keep up your great work and feel free to add me, message me etc. Would be wonderful to have some buddies who are on the same path :-)

    Hi! I'm Ali. I'm 165 pounds, 5'3 and I would like to lose 15 pounds by my birthday in April and 20-30 pounds by July or August. I would love to hear and share any at home or gym workouts! I feel fairly new to MFP because the last couple of times I've tried to use it have been inconsistent. This time I want to stick around and I think having some friends wouldn't hurt! :) Feel free to add me! :)
