Hey, I'm Patti! I'm a freshman in college and I'm going for nursing and I'm a dancer. I gained a lot of weight this year because well.... college is stressful and when I'm stressed I eat. I mean don't get me wrong I didn't get this overweight in one year, I was chubby in high school, which was due to my parents divorcing. But heres where the excuses STOP!! It's time to take back my life! I'm going to turn that freshman "15" around!

I would love some friends!

    Hey I'm just finishing up my freshman year as well! I'd be happy to be your friend :) I've found that working out is a huge stress relief (instead of eating).

    Friend request sent!

    I'm Abbie, I'm a grad student with a full-time job, and somehow in all of that, I lost time at the gym. I joined MFP to make myself accountable to actually eating right and working out more.

    Good luck to you!

    Hey, I'm finishing up my freshman year too and in the same position as you. Freshman 15 sucks! I'd be happy to be your friend and feed off of each other's accomplishments. :)

    Good luck with your goals!
    I actually was in the best shape of my life my sophomore year of college.
    I took a dance class, and walk/jog class and they were within 2hrs of each other so I would hang out in the gym between the two classes. I miss that. Working out was such an intertwined part of my routine during that semester.

    It's all what you make it! :)
