20 somethings, students, nurses?

Hello all!

I'm new here. Giving MFP a chance after many started and failed attempts to do something about my weight. I'm looking for friends to help motivate me on this journey and I'd be happy to return the favor! I'm 21 years old and a nursing student. I'd love to have some friends who are similar to me and understand some of the circumstances (stress, busy schedule, convenience, peers who have bad eating habits but has no effect on them, etc.) that make controlling my weight difficult. If you fit that criteria, or if you don't and you just want to be friends, I'm okay with that too ... Add me, I'd love some motivation on this journey!

ETA: I'm 5'7 and weigh 267. My intermediate goal is 200 and my overall goal is 160ish, I'll evaluate that when I get closer.. I'd love some people with similar goals.

I think I fit this! I'll be 23 this month, and I'm a nurse.

Good luck with nursing school and reaching your goals!

I'm in med school so I definitely get the stress thing! I always thought it would be *impossible* to stick to a calorie goal and make it through exam periods, but I've proven myself wrong- yay! I added you- anyone else, feel free to add me!
