Hey,
Another newbie here, I've been unhappy with my weight for quite a few years now and finally decided to do something about it. After being totally ripped off by a gym I'm now going at it solo and thought this looked liked a great community to make friends in. I'm 21, a student and have got my final exams coming up and am hoping getting healthier and losing some weight can keep my mind de-stressed and lead to the best summer yet where I won't be self conscious about going swimming!
Feel free to add me

Thanks for the add! And trust me, exercise is a great way to de-stress for the sake of finals. I feel so much better about school when I'm exercising--and I focus better on studying afterward, too, which is a big plus. (:0
