in Introduce Yourself
Hello Guys, I have been one of those people constantly saying they will start the diet tomorrow and now I am starting today. Not a diet as much, just healthy portions, exercise and cutting out chocolate (mostly). I just wanted to official introduce myself and join the community. My name is Karen and I am 19 years old. Looking to lose weight while at university. I am not really sure how to structure my diet/ exercise plan yet so could really use some help. Not being able to afford a gym membership and being at university away from my bike it is hard to think of easy to do exercises. Any help would be appreciated :D

    Running! You can do it just about anywhere, and the only thing you need is a decent pair of shoes :)

    Hi Karen,
    Congratulations on deciding now is the time. You CAN and WILL do this. I'm happy to help as much as possible (feel free to add me).

    Does you university have a gym? I use my school gym every day because it is free. It might be a little bit more limited than some of the gyms which require a membership, but it's free and in college that is very helpful!

    @Cassondra1370 The only problem I have with running is that I get very self conscious about people watching. I know its a bit silly but the main reason I haven't tried it before.

    @cschiff Hello :) Thank you. It does have a gym but still has a membership payments which I can't afford at the moment (I spent a lot of my loan on my summer holiday). I have in the past booked out the tennis courts however for free.
