20 somethings!

My name is Lisa and this is yet another journey I am starting to lose weight. I have been successful in the past, only to be disappointed by perpetual weight gain. I am 24, and looking for the support of not only people my age, but those sharing the same experiences as myself. Please feel free to add me as a friend!

    hey girl, i'm 26 and know exactly how you feel, as i'm in the same boat. good luck, and i'm adding you now =)
  • Hai Lisa!

    I'm Kitty, I'm 25 and OMG do I hear ya! I have been trying to lose weight for years now but am finally getting the motivation I need to get to where I want. I joined up on here because I loved how I could calculate everything and also help motivate friends! Unfortunately the two IRL friends who joined with me bailed after a couple of weeks, I kinda did after that but after a 500gm weight gain I am back and more determined than ever!

    Sending a friend request now!

    Kitty :D

    I'm turning 25 next month.

    I've never felt really skinny, but I've never been this fat. Looking back at pictures of myself in 2005-2006 (right after high school), I was 135ish and teeny tiny. I got up to 195lbs because I had a boyfriend who loved fast food and got me addicted, then we went off to college together, and I sat on my *kitten* a lot.

    I still sit on my *kitten* all day (the curse of the web designer), but I've dropped the fast-food junkie of a boyfriend (along with 10lbs so far!), found a great guy who loves being active, and I'm trying to lose enough weight to keep up with him on a soccer field.

    I'm 26 and still on the never-ending (it seems) journey to finally lose weight and shape up! Although I've never been overweight by a whole lot, but as I grow older, I've noticed that my body becomes much more flabby... I suppose its now or never at the moment :)

    I hear you guys! I've lost weight in the past, but a few years ago I noticed I was growing. I tried different things- adding exercise, eating healthy. But my size just continued to resist my attempt to halt its growth! until I joined this site- suddenly I can see everything I eat and know what I need to change. It's working! :)
  • HI, 25 from south africa! know exactly what you going through! friend request sent :)

    I'm 24 and have been overweight all my life.

    I keep trying to get down to my ideal weight of 68kg, but every time I reach 78kg, I get lazy and the weight starts creeping up to 90kg again.
    Bit tired of it, so now I will get to 68!

    Feel free to add me :).

    I am the exact same way! I'm in my final year of college and all that sitting on my computer or studying is horrible for my weight!
