About you:

I'm Cameron, 16, a junior in high school. I'm about 227 lbs and my weight goal is 160. I wanted to lose weight so I'll feel healthier and all that other good stuff about being in HS ;) My family also has a history of diabetes or IS the history of diabetes so I don't want to end up taking insulin shots like my Dad. I live in Hawaii. I'm a musician and a video game nerd.

Feel free to add me :)

  • I suppose I would still fall under the 'teen' category.

    I'm Laura, 19, married, college student. Currently 170lbs and my goal weight is 130lbs. I want to lose weight to be healthier and fit. I live in a family that also has a history of diabetes as well as blood pressure, so I want to stay clear of ever having those problems.

  • Hi my name is Rebecca, I'm 14 and I'm not trying to lose a lot of weight, just about 10 pounds to get back in shape. I'm currently 124 and I'm aiming for about 115. I come from a family with high blood pressure and my grandfather died of a heart attack a couple years ago. I dropped about 16 pounds from 135 earlier in the school year but gained most of it back. My goal is to run a marathon before the end of high school!

    It's so awesome to see another teenager on here!! (:
