Hi everyone!

I'm 22 and starting my weight loss journey. I am taking my last 2 classes to finish out my degree and hoping to drop the weight that college so generously added to me in the last few years. I thought I'd see who the other 20-somethings were looking to lose weight and be healthy, or hot, or both!

    Don't blame you its not an easy feat deciding to change but when you do it just happens over time. My goal so far has been to get fit and healthy and I am still working hard at it lost over 30 kilo so far and another 20 more to go.

    Congratulations on almost finishing your studies!

    I'm 25 years old, currently working full time and studying full time also. After losing more than 20kg back in 2011/2012, I unfortunately put almost all the weight back on.

    Now, I've managed to find some time in the little spare time that I have to concentrate on myself a more to lose the weight again! So far, I've lost 3.2kg in the past two weeks thanks to healthy eating and exercise. I got myself a personal trainer for the next few months to learn more about weight training and I'm also adding additional gym sessions concentrating on cardio.

    Good luck guys! :)

    PS. Congratulations on your 30kg loss so far, Cootason!

    Hi! I'm 26, seriously started my weight loss journey in Jan 2013. I've had fluctuations, but overall a net loss of 37lb so far (17kg).
    I'm 175cm, broad build, currently weight 77.5kg (12st 3lb), so I'm basically where I want to be!

    I still use MFP to make sure I don't over indulge for no reason!

    Yay!

    Hey!
    I'm 23, and I've been working on my health and fitness more seriously since February. Although I was going hard at the gym, my nutrition side was lacking big time. I just joined MFP yesterday, and so far I love it! Looking to lose 15-20 lbs, but it's the measurements and body fat % that matter more.

    Congrats on finishing at school! :)

    Hey folks,

    I'm 22, had a rough 2013 and finally started working on myself again in late December of last year. Been active with tracking my food since February. Looking to meld myself into a bit of the community here :) I primarily focus on eating Keto so if there's anyone like that here feel free to add :)

    Oh haaaaay. I'm 23, just about to graduate, and have been kicking *kitten* at this whole working out/eating well journey (third time's a charm?) the past three weeks now that I'm getting back into it so I feel more motivated than ever right now. WE GOT THIS GUYS.

    I'm 21, starting my program tomorrow. Been rough for me, due to depression, lack of motivation, death of a loved one last year, etc. but I'm ready now. Been overweight since 3rd grade and caught pure crap through the years from bullies. Add me please

    Hey!

    I'm in the exact same boat. I'm 22 and finishing up my undergraduate degree. I want to lose 10 pounds. I'm a pre-medicine and psychology major so I have a vague idea of what I need to do, but I really want to talk to others. I mostly want to swap ideas and motivate ( and be motivated by) talking. I just joined today. Anyone in the forum can feel free to add me :).

    Hey guys Im a 24 year old trying to finish up a degree in the highly physically active field of Animation...

    I've always been a fat kid at heart, so I figure I could stand to lose a few pounds!
    Good luck to everyone!

    You can add me if you want someone who will probably cheer every accomplishment you log ha.

    Hi everyone :)
    I'm 24, turning 25 in September. Full time college student. I've been trying to lose weight on and off since February. I've lost about 10-15 lbs but I have a hard time staying on track and encouraged. Feel free to add me, I'd love to meet new people with the same goals and could use the occasional encouragement.
