Hi! I'm Aurora, I've been using myfitnesspal on and off for years. I figured it's probably about time to add some friends and get involved, so I'm more motivated to keep at it this time!

I have a goal of about 20 pounds to lose, but more than anything I'd like to take 2014 by the horns and get into the best shape of my life! I'm a 19 year old student and I'm learning how to work exercise into my routine and make healthy eating a habit. So anyone with similar goals/lifestyle is welcome to add me and we can encourage eachother :)

Good luck everyone!

    Well young lady, if you don't mind having a crusty old geezer who has 150 lbs to lose as a friend, I would be honored to be your friend on here :-)

    Hi! I'm 28 and have been on my journey for 2 years now. I'm married, and work full time. I also only need to lose 27 more lbs. I'm not a clean eater, but I try to eat mostly healthy. I try to work out at least 3 to 5 a week, even if its just a walk. I'll gladly help keep you motivated. Feel free to add me

    Hi! So I don't have a similar lifestyle but goals. Like in need of an exercise routine and a healthy eating habit. I've got lot's to lose though. Anyways, I do know of someone who's in the same position as you as far as school and losing weight. I think it would be good for you guys to be friends. She goes by the name: apfitlife. If you're interested, send her a friend request as well as a message? =)
  • i've also used my fitness pal on/off for a few years - trying to recommit to using it regularly! i'm not too focused on weighing a certain # (about 5-10 lb from "goal") but focusing on changing my body, reducing body fat a bit, building strength and endurance! i've been out of school for a few years but busy working - so i am always trying to find a balance between being healthy and having a life - finding ways to squeeze in a quick workout or prep a fast nutritious meal :)
