Looking for friends!

Hello there!
Im 18 and currently working full time and enrolled in school. Over the years I have gained a ridiculous amount of weight and my goal is to loose about 50 pounds. It is a struggle to pass up on fast food and go for the healthy options when coming home late from class. Also, finding the motivation to get up and go for a walk is a struggle. So some friends on here for support would be great!
Thank you for reading! Have a great day :smiley:

    I know the feeling! When I was in college, I was working 60+ hours a week and taking 23 credits at a time. Fast food became my best friend...and the weight gain followed. Now, I've graduated college and started a full time job, but I'm working on losing all the college weight I gained.

    Feel free to add me! And this site is great for motivation and support. I, too, ate a lot of fast food in college, but I've lost a lot of the weight that I had gained as well. Just got to stick with it. I know eating right in college is tough, but definitely try buying frozen fruits and veggies - those will definitely help in eating healthier and they last much longer than if just fresh. Might even help save some money as you aren't eating fast food every time then. Good luck!

    Hello! I know how it looks like, as a lot of people!
    I have to foresee everything when it comes to food because I'm like a junkie and always want to eat junk food. You can imagine that this is happening very often if I come home and have prepared nothing. So feel free to add me :smile:
