    Hi, I'm also a college student. And no it is not the easiest environment at all to make such a huge lifestyle change. I'm 80days in on MFP and 19.9 pounds down. Feel free to add me.... and we can help out each other. :) I'm still a work in progress.

    wow great success :) Okay just sent u a request! Yeah college can be hard but it can also work if you really try like you are doing :)

    I'm not in college, but I'm 22 and gained a lot of weight after graduating high school because I had bad eating habits, but a very active job (even lost weight on that job while keeping my terrible eating habits...). However, I'm working on losing it. I've got about 40-50 pounds I'd like to lose.

    Feel free to add me if you'd like. I'm not a big commenter, but could always use the extra support and will be happy to return the favor. <<< This goes to everyone here. Also, I'm married, so I have it a little harder than some because my husband is in pretty good shape (active job, plays basketball at least once a week for a couple-3 hours, etc.) and doesn't feel the need to join me in this, but does support me WONDERFULLY.

    I am in my first year of college and had gained tons of weight by staying at home for almost a year. I LOVE FOOD and never thought I will go on diet but just tracking my calories and not depriving myself it will all works out. Add me :)
  • Hi there :D
    I'm rounding out my second year of college. I've always been overweight but of course, I gained weight my freshman year. So I lost the freshman 10 and then some :D and still going! Feel free to add me if you like :)

    ugh I hate the freshman 15 esp. when you live on campus and have a meal plan (the food at the cafeteria/lunch area is SO BAD and full of calories.)

    I'm a college student - gained about 40 pounds during the first couple years.. am a senior now and have lost 10lbs already, while trying to get fit and shed about 20-25 more! I'll add you - I love meeting people on MFP :)

    yeah it can be hard to eat right but I think the MFP app and the support here are great motivators!
