Hey there I'm obviously new to all of this, but super excited to find this site/app. I've always been semi heavy, I lost a good bit, then I started college, I always thought the whole "freshman 15" was crap, but boy was I wrong! It was more of a freshman 60 for me. Here I am in my sophomore/junior year and I'm terrified of what will happen if I let this continue. My downfall I guess you could say would be fast food. I'm on campus alllllllll day, so I more than likely eat there then hit a drive thru on the way home since I know I'll just be studying anyways. I have a goal of over 90 lbs. I also would love to hit 30 before the last week of March when I'll be attending a conference. It's a pretty big jump, but I have faith I'm open to any suggestions,, friends, etc. Thanks!

Hey!

I have at least 100 to lose, in a little over 2 weeks I have lost 11lbs so your goal of 30 by March is a good one :-). Just take it 1 day at a time and set small weekly goals. That's what I have been doing and I find it works well, I also use old clothes to help me, like a shirt that was too tight and now fits a bit better, I think its better than just relaying on what the scales say.

Good Luck :-)

Ben.

Thank for the encouragement! I'm in denial and refuse to throw all my jeans that no longer fit away, so that's an excellent idea! Congrats, 11 lbs. in just over 2 weeks is fabulous!
