Hi!

I'm twenty years old, 5 ft 4 and 11 stone 8.
I have been at University for a couple of years and have put on more than a stone since I have started.
I could really do with some friends with similar stats and a similar weight loss aim.
We can all motivate each other!

    Hi

    Im in the same sort of situation, 20 years old and weigh 11stone, i 5ft 3 and ive managed to put on nearly 2 stone in the last 2 years of going from a waitressing job (always on my feet running around) and walking to work to an office job ( sitting on my arss all day) and getting lifts to and from work cause too far to walk :( *sigh* also got into a good relationship and have got to comfortable to notice the weight creeping on!

    now hoping to see that weight creep back off again! Enough is enough!

    Im happy to give help and recieve support!

    Yay.
    Hi everyone!

    I've added you all. It's just nice to keep an eye on each other and give the occasional motivational comment I suppose. I know how much it motivates me.

    Hi, I started uni last September and I realised that I've been steadily putting on weight ever since I've had the freedom to eat what I want and choose my own meals (because at home we usually have quite healthy family meals and don't buy a lot of sugary snacks or anything). I was surprised when in only a few months I'd put on several pounds and got to my highest weight 150lb. I want to get down to 130lb and fit into my size 10 clothes again. I was kind of relying on the earlier teenage high metabolism which quite a few people are lucky enough to have but it seems like I need to be more active about losing and maintaining weight! Feel free to add :)

    Hi I have done the similar, I'm 19, 5 foot 11 and weigh 162 lb or 11 stone 8 lb except I am on a gap year in the USA and the combination of, like above having a high metabolism when I was younger and walking everywhere I could really eat whatever I like. I have put on 10 lb here but I would like to lose 15lb and to be really fit for when I start uni this autumn as I want to take up rowing.

    I think I've had a very similar situation to you. My mum is constantly on weightwatchers so doesn't buy in any junk food whatsoever. The going out and drinking and takeaways have really started to take their toll and I would love to get on top of it before Summertime! x

    I am very similar to you all as well and would love to give/get support from this forum!

    Am running a half marathon in 7 weeks, and would love to get down to 9.5-10stone by then, with my ideal weight at 56 kg, or around 8.5stone.

    I'm in the same situation, too! I'm 23, 5'3" and currently hovering around 130 lbs. Once I got into uni, I gained about 40 lbs or so (I was at 160 at one point), but fortunately that's over with now. Now I'm just trying to get to my goal weight (115 lbs) and then if I feel like I could improve even more then my dream weight (105 lbs). Feel free to add me!

    Hey there, I'm 18. Currently from the last time I checked (weeks ago) in the 170's. Started at 203 also. I'm starting Insanity tomorrow. Hoping to get down around 140 before the end of summer. After that I just want to focus on gaining muscle and getting toned. Wherever that puts me is totally fine as long as I'm happy with the way I look. I'm also attending college. Going to school for Culinary Arts. Hopefully they will teach me better ways of eating. I'm learning little by little since I started my journey in Sept.2012. Feel free to add me. I try to motivate and support all my friends as best as I can.
