in Getting Started
I'm trying to lose weight and it would be nice to have some friends to keep each other on track and just see other people's progress! I know the spring semester is almost over, but there is still plenty of time to diet and workout to see results (:

    Hey!

    Yes, I'm also in college. But I run cross country and I'm in track season right now, and then once spring semester ends (April) cross country training will start back up again, so I'm not trying to lose weight. My goal is to tone up - to strengthen my weak core and arms, which my coach has told me is basically the holy grail of me becoming a better runner.

    According to coach,
    Strong core = being able to take longer strides which = running faster.

    I look forward to getting to know all of you. Feel free to add me.

    Started this past fall, after being a SAHM for 10 years. I had no problem working out before starting, but since, I have to make deals with myself that I can't go to the gym unless I complete assignments and read the night before. So workouts don't always tend to happen. Plus, eating well has gone down hill since starting because of exhaustion. I no longer take my workouts or proper eating for granted! Looking forward to the end of the semester so I can get back to the gym consistently, without feeling guilty.

    Yep! I'm about to be a grad student and I want to lose another 45 lbs. I've been here for a while now and I'm just getting restarted (again) after realizing that I have depression. So I'm learning to work around that, working 40+ hours a week, and being a full-time student.

    Definitely looking for more friends, so add me if you want!

    Yes, I am a college student and in the same boat :)

    If anybody here is interested, I'm actually going to be starting a Spring challenge/accountability group on Facebook the first week of April to prepare for summer. I'm using Beachbody programs (I've been using them since 2011 and have lost 30 plus pounds) and we'll be checking in daily with our workouts and meals, asking questions, getting and giving support and motivation - I'll also be giving daily recipe and snack ideas since nutrition is often the hardest part. And I'm giving away some free prizes throughout the group :)

    If anyone is interested just shoot me a message and I'll send you my facebook page. :) Good luck to everyone <3
