In need of a supportive friend!

Hi everyone!
I am 18 years old and finishing up my first semester of college. I have gained about ten pounds since June and it's because I'm not as active as I used to be and I've been eating a lot of crap lately. I am 5"4' and about 135 lbs and I'm looking to get down to about 120 lbs. I'm not so interested in the number on the scale as I am about how I look and feel. I could use some friends and support on my journey!

  • Wow! This is so funny you posted 20 minutes ago and I am basically in the same boat looking for a weight loss buddy. I'm 5'5 and 136 pounds trying to get down to 120. I'm 22 years old. I've been "trying" for a year to lose weight but nothing has changed. Real weight loss takes real effort. By the end of July I want to have lost these 16 pounds. I know that sounds like a while but I have been trying for a year and clearly have not been trying had enough. The key to weight loss is to plan practical long term goals. Want to keep in touch and challenge each other so we both meet our goal?
