Hi everyone! I'm looking for some young women who have been struggling with weight their whole lives. Even though I'm not extremely overweight, in my family, there is a history of obesity, and ever since I've been young, I've struggled to maintain a healthy weight. I am currently a college athlete, but I often take my frequent exercise as an excuse to treat my body like a garbage disposal--not good!! Not only does it make me feel bad/tired/worn out, but the weight creeps on despite all the exercise I do. I'm worried for the day I no longer work out for 2 hours a day, and how my eating habits will quickly destroy my health. I want to establish good habits now, and I'm looking to lose btwn 10-15 lbs in 10-15 weeks (aka 3-5 months).
If any young lady out there wants to have a motivational friend, I'd love to be yours and for you to be mine! (only girls please--sorry guys!!)

Hi, I'm in the same-ish boat. I am young, but just got a desk job and have started packing on the pounds since. It has been a year and I now have 20lbs to lose.
Just looking for some people who can keep me on track.0 -
Hi, I fit your bill. Small goals, but dang the last pounds can be hard. I have been at it almost three months and am down 10 pounds (slow and steady wins the race). I don't know exactly how much I want to lose because for me its hard to tell how much left I have to lose (maybe 15-20 left?) I'm currently a full time college student with two part time jobs, so I often have a hard time finding time to exercise, but I try my best. It would be nice to have some have some friends my age with similar issues and goals.0

Hi! I'm a little older than you, but I do remember those college eating days. Man I miss those days...that being said, I can sympathize with watching that pounds creep on no matter the exercise because of poor food choices. You can add me if you want :-)0
