Hey all! Well after 5 long years (yes FIVE) I'll finally be graduating with my Bachelor's and for my graduation party I'm going to be spending a week in Las Vegas with a bunch of friends. I really really really want to be thin and fit since I'll be there in the heat of the summer and wearing a bikini is a MUST! And after all, who knows if I'll ever have another graduation party! I'm looking to realistically/hopefully lose 10ish lbs by then (in 11 weeks, I'll be going mid-June) and ultimately I'd like to lose 15-20 so I can be back around 130lbs. I'm 5'7.5" and fairly in shape already. I've been switching back and forth between Insanity and Turbofire. I want to start a running plan with my bf when the weather is decent enough as well as starting up some tennis. I do have some issues with binge eating that are going to be difficult to ward off, but currently I've started South Beach and I'm doing pretty well on that..

I'd love love love any kind of support, advice, words of wisdom, pats on the back, or anything that anyone wants to contribute to help keep me motivated! I'm very open to making new friends so we can help support each other as well :)

Anyone else out there, and I'm sure there's a lot of people, who have goals of getting slim/fit for summer: I support you! Go you! We can do it!

    Ooh I'm doing the same, graduating in May after 5 years. Congratulations! Your fitness plan sounds excellent, as does your trip to Vegas :) I'm moving right after graduation, and my goal is to have good exercise habits kind of engrained in my daily routine before then so that it'll be easier to stay in good health despite life upheaval. We can do it!! What you are doing is awesome :)

    I'm exactly the same - graduating in May after 5 years! I want to look my best for my graduation ceremony. I'm eating healthy and following a running programme (ending with a 10k the same week as my graduation!)

    All the best to you guys! If we managed to get through 5 years of study we can definitely manage this!
