New and looking for friends!

Options
Hey everyone! I've been on MFP for a few days and am looking to add some friends on here. Basically, I have no one in my personal life who is interested in weight loss so there's not too much support.

I'm currently at 230 (or so, I don't have a scale at the moment because they scare me) and am looking to get down to 160. I'm returning to college as a Junior this fall after taking a leave so I really want to get into better shape before then, hopefully around 30 pounds or so. Feel free to add me!

    welcome!! congrats on returning to college. I recently finished my bachelors and know how challenging it is to keep on track. You can do it with a few changes.

    Welcome to MFP... I just joined a few days ago as well. I know how you feel, not wanting to go at the whole weight loss thing alone. Well the good news is you won't have to do it alone :smile: . I have a goal to lose 30 pounds by my 30th birthday which is in October. I've only lost 2 lbs so far, but for my first week I'll take any loss :wink: . As long as you are focused and determined you will reach your goals - together we will reach our goals :flowerforyou:
