Hey guys, I'm a full-time college student with a part-time job, and I need to lose 40 pounds. Anyone else going through the same kind of thing? I'm sick of having all the weight on me but I'm awful with motivation, so having some friends to motivate each other would be nice!

    Not that boat but if the point is busy I get it! Full time job, plus growing a business, and a 5 and 7 year old.

    Just Start! Find a 30 minute program you enjoy. Keep at it. You will start to feel better with the exercise, and then you want to do it more and its a Good cycle, versus a viscious cycle of bad food, feeling down, etc.

    You Can Do it!! :)

    Full time college (17 credits), part time job, and I'm pre-med to boot. At least 25 pounds to lose, probably more.

    Add me if you'd like. :)

    Right there with you! I'm a premed student double majoring in Molecular Biology and German Area Studies, not to mention I work five hours shifts for three days a week during precious study time. Squeezing in weight loss is going to be difficult, but we can do this!! Add me if you want :)
