hi everyone!

i have had success on this website before, i was super motivated and lost about 20 pounds a couple of years ago. i basically gained it back slowly and while i'm not unhappy with my weight, i don't feel healthy, and i'm not eating healthily.

i'm a student and it's finals and i have a terrible time eating too much when i have to study. now that it's getting warmer i'm looking to get outside more. i am aiming to lose about 20 pounds, but i keep giving in to cravings and such. i'm hoping someone will be my buddy and be willing to e-mail/message me me every once in a while, and i'll do the same, to keep myself in check and motivated. anybody out there willing, with the same-ish weight loss goals and in similar circumstances??

:) ashley

    I have about 30 lbs to lose that I have gained over the past 3yrs. I actually am unhappy with my weight gain cause I am just not comfortable with myself. I am not confident like I used to be, so it kinda sucks. But at least I am on here willing to do the work and put in the effort. I can't wait till I get to feel like my old self again! you can add me to your friends list and we can keep each other motivated :P good luck!
