One of those changes is to create a healthy lifestyle for myself. I need some friends on here for motivation and support so feel free to add me!! And I'll take any advice I can get, too! (:

    Hey Everybody!

    I'm Kristy and am a senior at DePaul University in Chicago studying accounting and international studies. I started getting serious about being healthier back in October and lost right around 30 pounds since then but some things come up and I have just been maintaining now. It's time for me to really get back into a healthy lifestyle and just need some girls that understand how hard it is with school and work and everything else that gets thrown our way. Feel free to add me and give advice and I'll do the same as I get the hang of this.

  • Hi! My name is Alicia. I am a gonna start my third year here at New Mexico State University, going for my BBA in Economics. I've been on lots of weight loss journeys before that failed, except one back in HS where I lost 30 lbs, but I gained it all back after graduating HS and not buying their meals and shakes, so this time I want to make it a complete lifestyle change in order to make myself healthy.

    Hey everyone! I'm Noelle, a sophomore at LSU but studying in Spain for a year!
    I recently put on body fat after having a great first year at college and I am NOT happy not seeing my muscles anymore! My activity level and motivation have both been waaaay down and I'm hoping MFP will help me pick them back up!
    I'm 5'8" and around 140. I'm not really looking to lose pounds so much as to melt the fat off my muscles!
  • Hi! I'm Danielle and I am going into my senior year at Umass for Biology. I put on some weight and am ready to be happy again. I try to not let anything hold me back but sometimes I find myself not doing things because of how I look. I would like to be healthy and gain more confidence in myself! I love meeting new people so feel free to say hi!

    Hi I'm Kerri. I'm a senior bio major/psych minor at Maryville College. I've slowly been putting on weight since high school but getting to 160 lbs over the summer was just the straw that broke the camels back. Now I'm doing my best to get healthy and feel better. Although lord knows the cafeteria isn't doing me any favors in that department. I've also recently become slightly obsessed with exercising.
  • Hi everyone,

    My name is Zer. I attend Augustan College in Sioux Falls, SD and am a 4th year nursing student. I have tried many times in the past to lose weight but cannot seem to lose weight. My most successful attempt was last summer when I dropped a pant size but I was still the same weight. I started measuing myself then to see how many inches I lost. I just am having a hard time losing weight. I heard about myfitnesspal from one of my friends and decided to try it out. Hope to meet more people.

    Hey, I'm Julia, I'm a 21 year old senior at university in Massachusetts. Never been an athlete, long time hater of the gym. Trying to burn off stress, be more healthy and feel great and confident before I have to start interviewing for real people jobs and feel like I need to impress people :X

    Hi ladies! My name is Brittany, Im 21 years old and I am really stoked for this group. I recently went back to university (University of Ottawa) thinking its a new start and then I completely fell off the wagon forgetting how everything about college and university is a road block to losing weight! so I am turning over a new leaf and not giving up eating out, partying and such but trying different things out so that I can still do these things but lose weight and be healthier at the same time! :D

    Hi ladies!!

    My name is Jacia. I'm a fifth year college student in Minnesota. I will have a degree in Communication Disorders and minors in Spanish and Psychology. I'm currently in the process of applying to grad schools for speech language pathology.

    I have always been really active, but sometimes struggle with eating healthy. I live with my boyfriend, and his weekly pizza nights and ice cream before bed every night have caught up with me. I'm looking to lose the 15-20 lbs that I have put on in the last few years. We're going to the Bahamas in January and my boyfriend has been hinting at that he's going to propose while we're on vacation. Because of this I want to make sure that I look amazing!

  • Hey ladies :)

    My name is Kristin and I'm 20 years old. I am a senior in college at a small private healthcare college in Virginia. I am graduating in May and desperately need to lose some weight before graduation! I recently tried a Zumba class and had a lot of fun, I can't wait to go back. I'm hoping it will really help in my weight loss journey. I am starting a blog also if you'd like to follow. http://fat2fabulouslyfit.tumblr.com/

    Hi,
    I'm 25 and am currently working on a graduate degree in the sciences. My first year in apartment living as an undergrad was when I was finally able to change my life a bit, shop healthier, take more control of what I ate and was when I started the weight loss journey I'm on now. Took a break for a while, but now as a grad, I'm hoping to finish what I started. Studying as an undergrad (and even as a grad) required a lot of sitting and I didn't make it a point to be active. I'm trying to change that now as a grad and find a balance between school and health/fitness and attain a healthy lifestyle for good. Glad a group like this exists (thanks for creating it). :)
