in Introduce Yourself
I'm a full-time student studying a degree in nutritional biochemistry. I'm 26 (a mature student) and have around 8 stone to lose. I would love to find some friends on MFP for support, with similar goals (or not), which would of course go both ways :)

    Welcome! I'm 23, working full-time as a project coordinator creating an interactive ebook for strawberry farmers. Not in school, but working at a university. I'd love to have some friends my age.

    Im 24, 25 next month, full time student to be a med lab tech, work part time (only 15-20 hrs a week) and have a 2 year old son. I dont have a clue how much 8 stone is, sorry, but I have lost 44 lbs and have about 35-40 more to lose. Anyone can feel free to add me, more support is always a good thing!!

    *waves* I'll be 25 next month. I graduated from college in 2011 but will probably end up going back at some point considering I still don't have a job in my field..

    Howdy! I'm 22, I'll be 23 the day after my wedding in October. I'm going to start college after I get married (better financial help and all that). I'm going to try for my Master's in Education. I'm wanting to lose around 80 pounds. In my honest opinion, being a fat science teacher is about as bad as being a fat doctor :P

    8 stone is 112 lbs. Sound depressing in lbs!!

    You're so right. I find it embarrassing that I'm studying a nutrition based degree but don't seem to be able to follow my own advice so how can I expect anyone else to?? Hoping to do my post-graduate teacher training after my degree to be a chemistry teacher and I have the exact same opinion as you!! I don't want to be an overweight teacher :-/

    Yes, exactly, but that may be our greatest motivation! I think Chemistry would be fun to teach. I didn't get to take it because my high school considered Cosmetology as a form of chemistry. I missed out on that :( I was able to take anatomy though, that was pretty cool.

    I'm 19 but a full time student, in my second year of studying Mathematical Sciences (I chose physics and statistics modules) in England. Looking to lose somewhere in the region of 35lb, although not exactly sure of my end goal because I want to start bodyweight fitness once I'm down in the 130s/140s.

    Good luck and feel free to add me (that goes for anyone reading this tbh).

    I want to be a teacher too! My old school offers teacher training so I'm aiming to do what my cousin's doing at the moment and train there. Future maths teacher hopefully.
