New school, new me?

I'm going to give MFP the good ol' college try. I've been calorie-counting for about a year and a half now, and I love it. I decided to try doing all of this with MFP to get some support from like-minded people.

I'm 22, from CA, living in Chicago, and headed to Colorado soon. I'm just about to finish up college with a BS in Biology (graduating Summa Cum Laude in a week!!!), and I'm headed to vet school in the fall. I think now is the perfect time to work on becoming the person I want to be as I enter into this new phase in my life.

On top of those life changes, I'm also going to be getting married in September 2012 to my high-school sweetheart -- 7 year anniversary coming up in a few days! Whew, where did the time go?!

I've never been significantly overweight, I just think I've always had a little weight to lose. I'm hoping to lose those few pounds and also train for my second marathon at some point. I'd love any support - so friend request me, or let me know if I can friend request you if you're willing.

Sounds like you have your mind in exactly the right place. :happy: Seems like with everything else going those few little pounds should be easy peasy!

Congrats on all the fantasticness going on in your life!!!!

Welcome Aboard! Congratulations on your recent accomplishments. This is a great website for motivation and support. I have been on here for a little over a week and I love it and you willl too. You made a major decision about your health that you won't regret. It's not going to be easy, but with a little help from MFP you will succeed.
