Hey everyone! I'm new to the group and have been reading everyone's stories and it definitely reactivated me. I started MFP a year or so ago but could never stick with the regular program. Then one day I looked at myself in the mirror and thought "wow man, you let yourself go since college." I knew I had to really dedicate myself and focus. I am just a hair under 6'1" and right now weigh 218. I was up to about 250 as recently as this past October. I'm committing myself to the gym 5-6 times a week. Mostly comprising of swimming and jogging to this point. I'm going to keep up the different cardio and swimming but start lifting again 3 days a week as well. I was a swimmer and golfer in school and was always active. I was down to 178-185 in college and I would love to get back there. My over goal is to roughly be between 175-190,but my real goal is to get my body fat down from 27.3 -single digits eventually. I would really like to find some motivational friends to keep each other going. Anyone feel free to add me. I know we can all do it together!!!

    I'm in college at the moment and have noticably (to me anyway) put on weight since I started. I'm a small guy anyway, and it's not a lot but I can see it and don't like it. I'd love to get fit though. Not bodybuilder kinda fit, but at least toned and with some muscle definition. I've not got a gym membership but I work out doing strength exercises at home.
