Hello everyone!

My name is Liz and I am a 27 year old college student from Detroit. I will be graduating in the fall, and my life is going to be changing. I decided that I wanted to make it as positive as possible by living healthy. After high school, I was 20lbs overweight, and the next thing you know...it was bumped up to 150lbs. I need to take control of this, and I need support from people who are going through the same thing. I am looking for friends to push me as I push them. Feel free to introduce yourself to me and add me :-D

    Hi Liz,

    Good luck! I just joined today and hope the forum chats will help with a bit if motivation! I'm in the UK, a part-time student working full-time. It's all too easy to hit the junk and not exercise when you've got a lot on, but hopefully I can stick to it this time.

    Anyway, all the best ????
