in Motivation and Support
Hi, there, Gwenyth here. I'm 19, 5'3, sophomore in college, and trying to keep at 121 pounds while not losing my mind. I'm not really looking to lose, but I'm maintaining where I am so as not to gain weight. Using diet and exercise, I want to get over the mental block I have that is fear of food and would love some role models and accountability partners. Mostly for support, but also to compare/contrast, I would love to meet some others my age who are in a similar stage of life as myself. I've been on MFP for months now, but am always looking for friends my age! :)

    I just joined, and I'm about to be a freshman in college. I have lost a total of 135 llbs through weight watchers, but I can't seem to lose the final twenty. I'm going to see if this site can help. Any advice would help!

    I'm nineteen, a sophomore in college, and looking to lose... 40 more pounds, I guess? My good scale doesn't seem to be working properly, so I'm not sure what my exact weight is right now (need to buy a new scale ASAP, ugh) but I'm looking to get to 125 pounds. Feel free to add me--and that goes to anyone on this thread, haha, it's nice to find people my age who are also trying to lose weight.

    I'm 20, 5ft 3.. 133lbs and I've been stuck at this same weight for about 4 months now.. If not longer.

    I feel like my weight isn't going to shift so I gave up for a bit but I need to be back right on it because I WILL look good in a bikini when I go on holiday!

    Hi! :) I'm Lucy, 20 and going into my third year at university this autumn..aah! A friend and I took up running last term and I've been trying to keep up some level of fitness/exercise over the summer break. The last month before I go back is coming up so I just want to push myself that little bit further to get the best results for university again (:

    Hello! :)
    I'm Alana, 20 and 5'4.5 (Still think I am 5'5 though!) I'm going into my second year of uni in Wales. Starting at 179, I'm now 176, aiming for 135lbs and see where I go from there. Tried the 'healthy lifestyle' for my first year. How naive was I to think I could beat all the student deals on chicken nuggets.. Anyway I'm going to do it the right way and since I'll be living in a house rather than student accommodation hopefully it will make my life a whole lot easier! :)
