in Introduce Yourself
Hello! My name is Sara and I am a college student trying to tame a few bad
habits. I have actually been using mfp for at least a year now, and have had a lot of success with it.

Unfortunately since losing a lot of weight, life changed and my health habits suffered. Having a boyfriend has not helped my waistline either, ha.

I went from 160+ to about 130-135 last year and I really learned some self control! At about 145 now I am trying to slim down again . I am starting to not fit in all the newer, smaller clothes I bought, and I am just not feeling my best anymore.

I have been doing mfp on and off here and there but it's time to buckle down and commit to it again.

I'd love to be mfp friends with any active members, especially people my age (but not necessarily). Any takers? :)

    24 year old grad student! I sent you a friend request.

    I lost weight and got fit about 1.5 years ago, but in the past few months my weight has been slowly creeping upwards again. Being a student makes it difficult to constantly stay healthy and make healthier choices. My goal this time is to take it off (again) and KEEP it off!

    Anyone else with similar goals, feel free to add me :)

    howdy!

    im a 23 year old college graduate from new jersey. since ive graduated in may ive been trying to be healthier and keep up a more active lifestyle. seems like we are in the same boat; i weighed in this morning (my first day) on MFP at 148 lbs. I would really like to get back down to 130 - 135, since thats what i weighed in high school. of course with summer looming, the idea of a great beach bod is also whats keeping me going.

    i've been eating well but really happy i found this app. i think having to "see" what im eating and how im exercising is going to help me. i would love to be friends so we could do this together!

    add me and hope to talk to you soon!

    I'm 22 and just graduated college! A few summers ago, I went from about 160 pounds to 120 pounds. WIth the stress of college and finding a job, I went back up to 150 pounds. I'm currently at 141, and I'd LOVE to get down to at least 130.

    I'd love to be friends! :)

    I Had Brain surgery about 6 months ago, I just had my 6 month follow up with my neurosurgeon and he gave me the green light to start going back to the gym.

    I gained a lot of weight during recovery, so i'm really hoping to start slimming down.

    Looking forward to getting to know everyone. :)
