College Student needing support

I have been using myfitnesspal on and off for years, but now that I have been derailed by college I know I need to make a change. I was 120-125 in high school and got up to 130 my first year of college and I felt healthy there, even though I was striving to become more toned and fit. I got up to 155 and am down to 145. I moved out in September after doing community college for 2 years and now that I am away from home I don't have much of a support system. My boyfriend supports me, but he is fit and healthy and can eat whatever he wants, so it doesn't motivate me when he is eating junk and I am sitting next to him eating my healthy foods. I just need an actual support system that can help keep me motivated, get to know me and possibly make some friends.

You sound a lot like me! Since highschool where I weighed about 125, I had gained up to 157 last March. Now I'm back down to 135 Honestly this thing reeeeally helps keep track of calories and exercise. You just gotta remember that when you're feeling lazy or tired you will never regret going to the gym or getting some exercise. That feeling of accomplishment and endorphins is the real cherry on top.0

I think you may have just become my twin. I was 120-125 since I hit puberty, up until my senior year of high school. I was probably about 130 when I graduated, and then was 140-145 my freshman year of college. I'm back down to 128-129. Feel free to add me!0

I always do well for a couple of weeks and then start to fade out. I am determined to keep with it especially since I have a half-marathon in April I need to train for. I was a runner in high school and started running less and less in College and every time I decide to run I remember how much I love it.0

This is the story of my life. My roommate also has a ridiculous metabolism.. so much so her doc tells her to gain weight -.- I am going to get the challenge when spring semester starts next week to keep up with the program so we can support each other!
Anyone can add me0 -
