in Getting Started
Hey all! I am a college student, and would love to have some similar aged or lifestyled friends to help me with my weight loss- I used to weigh 115lbs (I'm 5'2), and had my anti depressant meds upped in dosage. I gained a lot of weight, between that and a pregnancy (which I lost), and was 160lbs at my heaviest. I'm down to 157 now and losing steadily, but would love some friends to encourage me and to encourage.

    Feel free to add.. I had been on antidepressants for most of my teenage years and it really caused havoc with my body so I know exactly how that is.. Be patient and keep up the hard work..

    I am not in your age range but I can totally relate to other areas. I have been taking meds for bi-polar and i sleep walk and eat. I also got married 2 years ago and getting lazy and comfortable I managed to put on 35 lbs. I just started today tracking my fitness and calorie in take. I have been going to the gym in the past few weeks but have not been able to maintain a stricter schedule.
    I have also posted on FB to some sights that I have joined to find a workout buddy because I have read that it gives you the initiative to do better but I have only received 1 response and she flaked on me today.
