Hi! 20 yr old female college student looking for friends

Hi everyone,

I'm new to myfitnesspal and I'm planning on using this app daily or nearly daily. I'd love to connect with you! A little about me: I'm a huuuge foodie and I'm going to the UK in August. I'd like to lose some weight before I leave and I'll try to continue that while I'm studying in Europe. I've been lucky enough to have a fast metabolism but I've been living with two huge football players this summer and they've made massive dinners every night. I'm 5'4" and I'll try staying around 1200 calories. I've never counted calories before and I probably eat twice that much regularly. I'd be interested in recipes if you have any you'd like to share!

I'm super positive and enthusiastic about getting back to where I need to be! Let's get in shape and feel great about ourselves.

Nathalie

    Hey! I'm 23 and just finished college (whew!) so I know how that goes. Plus, you're right, 1200 cals is HARD (that's where I'm at now) Feel free to add me and I'll help with the motivation and support. :]

    :) She pretty much summed me up.
    I went backpacking around Europe last year and adored it. Are studying aboard?

    I'm trying to create a 'clean' eating recipe book right now!

  • Ugh I gained 38 lbs in my first year of college, thinking makes me hungry + I had a job with a pizza company. :/ That's why i'm on here! I'm looking for support as well so I'll send you a request.

    Hi! I'm a 21 year old university student, 5'2'' and usually around 1300-1500 depending on the day! Feel free to add me, I'm on every day :)
  • That's awesome!!! I'm pumped about this. I'd love to read your book when it comes out!

    Yes, I'm studying abroad for a semester. I'm a computer science major, but I'm looking forward to a semester in London that I can devote to econ, history, theater, and writing.

    Thanks everyone for your support so far! :)

    I saw Wicked when I was in London, it was pretty epic! :) You will adore it. It is such a decadent city - one of my favorite places in the world.
  • Hi, Nathalie! I'm Elsie, currently living in London; you'll love it here, I hope, it's super cool. :) Feel free to add me, I'll try to offer as much motivation as I can. xx
