Trying to lose weight in college

Hi! I'd like to lose about 40 pounds.
I struggle with good eating habits, especially because I have a meal plan required by school and it's hard to have a good routine and good habits.
I also like working out, but don't have much self motivation....
I'd love to add some friends to get more motivation!!

    Hi! I'm also looking to lose 40 lbs(or more)! I'm also in college, but I don't live in the dorms anymore, so I know what it's like. It's tough when you can't really cook for yourself, but maybe we can motivate each other to eat better and exercise more :) Feel free to add me as a friend!

    Hiya, I'm also in college trying to lose weight. I'm trying to have better control over my food/excise away from my parents, who've pressured me for as long as I can remember. I want to lose weight because I'm making a positive choice about my life and it will make me happy and not anyone else. Hopefully we can motivate each other :)
