Hey! :)

Anyone in uni/college and trying to lose weight looking for a MFP buddy? Or anyone else. :) It's just nice to be able to relate to exam-week binging, school stress and somehow trying to fit a workout or diet in with all that.

    I completely understand. I'm a full time student at cbu working two jobs and a single new mommy. Its really hard to not just grab some fast food when im hungry or chug a zillion cokes to stay awake

    Returning to school from winter break in a week! Also returning to MFP after a while of just maintaining (thankfully not gaining, because I wasn't paying attention). Add me if you like! A buddy or two would probably be good for my self control, haha. I was stuck in a dilemma about what to get at the grocery when I go back since I'm so crunched for time during school, and I might go to SlimFast a couple of times a day just for the convenience...

    Yep!

    I'm currently doing a placement in my third year of university, so I'm working 9-5 Monday-Thursday. I don't go out and drink Sunday-Wednesday nights as I just can't hack the lack of sleep and hangover!

    But the Thursday £1 a pint deals are hard to resist....

    Hey I am definitely your girl. I'm right at we're you are and would love a friend that's in college as well so that we can relate to one another.

    I'm in college and dealing with all of the things you mentioned. It can be really hard to keep on our goals while in uni/college, especially if we're not surrounded by people with weight loss or health goals in mind. Feel free to add me! :)
