    I'm 22 and will be 23 next week. I'm only doing workout dvds and eating healthy isnt an option for me as I can't afford it so I'm eating poorly but still working out. I'm doing what I can.

    I'm 24 and have used MFP throughout my 20's to pull me back to reality of what I'm putting in my body. As you use this tool with your workouts I think you become more aware naturally of `your body, what you need to feel good/healthy, and what works for you.

    I'm 24.
    I eat a pescatarian (as clean as I can manage/afford), but mostly vegetarian, diet.
    I exercise a couple times a week. I like to switch it up a lot.

    Feel free to add :)

    Hello! I'm 25 and from RI. Welcome to MFP! I've been here for almost a year myself, fell off the wagon a bit. But while I was on the wagon it worked wonders!

    I'll add you. :)

    21, from Arkansas! I've been overweight all my life and it got to the point that I was just sick of it. I'm 5'5" and 214 as of now. I started dieting a little over a week ago and I've lost 7 pounds so far. I've stuck to eating around 1200-1400 calories a day and exercising (lightly) for about 30 minutes a day, 2-4 times a week. No fad diets for me, they've never worked. I've tried a few other ways to lose weight and so far, this is the only thing that's worked at all. Good luck!

    It's hard to give specific tips to you without knowing your eating habits, lifestyle, exercising etc. But I definitely suggest starting small with things that you can handle, and then adding more when you feel comfortable with it. Write a least of things you know you can do to improve, and pick a couple of them. You said you like the ice cream. How often do you eat it? If you eat of 3 or 4 times a week, cut back to twice. Drink soda? Cut that back a couple each week. Don't exercise? Try to at least go for a half hour walk 3 times a week. Don't eat vegetables? Add a salad a couple times a week. It will all help and its more likely to be a permanent change than if you do anything extreme.

    Good luck! Feel free to add me if you want!
