Hi! I am a 21 year old college student looking to lose about 5-10 pounds. I am looking for some supportive and encouraging friends. I am very kind and uplifting and just ask for the same in return!

I would love to have experienced fitness friends, older friends, younger friends, college students, etc. Any friends?
Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

    Hi,

    Feel free to add me. I'm 25 and just started my journey about 3 weeks ago. I have way more weight to lose than you though :). This site has helped me a lot so far. It keeps me motivated and on point with the food diary. I started at 212 lbs and this morning I weighed myself at 203 lbs. :smile: My first goal is 150.

    Hi. Hope youre finding all the fitness buddies youre looking for. You can add me if you wish, I just started last Tuesday and have a considerable amount of weight to lose since being short like me, I tend to look heavier. Anyways, happy friend hunting and the option is there if you like. Thanks and good luck!:smile:
