in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone!

My name is Jess and I’m 22, turning 23 in February! I graduated university back in June and my eating habits had become extremely poor. Eat whatever was convenient and was tasty. One day I looked in the mirror and asked myself “when did I gain all this weight?”. From that moment on I thought to myself that it’s time to make healthier choices so that I can feel better about myself. Since going to university, I gained a bunch of weight that I am not proud of. I am 5’4”, 176 lbs and I want to loose 56 lbs to go back to what I used to be before I got these bad eating habits. I’m currently working out three times a week on the treadmill to start. I am looking to make some friends who are around my age who are also wanting to get healthier and happier!

Feel free to add me so that we can all have a good support system!

Jess

    Hello :) My name is Brittany, I am 26 years old! I recently started working a desk job at a bank in June of 2013 and I weighed 130 lbs when I started. Now, 6+ months later, I weigh 154. I know it's not a lot of weight gain, but I am only 5' tall so 25 lbs is a LOT!

    It's nice to see others on here around my age !

    Best of luck to everyone and their journey!

    Hi all, I'm Amanda and I'm 21. When I started university 2 and a half years ago I was 124lbs but after moving in with my boyfriend I found myself at 139lbs. It's not a huge gain but at 5'3" 15lbs makes a vast difference in the way I look and I don't feel anywhere near as confident about my body as I used to, so the goal is to get as close to 124lbs as I can. I've already been going for 2 weeks and by day 11 I had lost 3lbs (I've not weighed myself since) so I now weigh 136lbs.

    I'm new to MFP so will add everyone on this thread if that's ok because it's always good to have support and see other peoples' journeys.
