I need to lose all the weight I gained in college. I'd love to have some friends to motivate me, and keep me on track. I used to be 130 and now I'm 190. I'd love to fit into my cute clothes again.

    I'm right there with you. I have 65 pounds to lose since college. I tried for a year and now I'm coming back at it after a back injury. If you want a friend for some encouragement let me know

    I am 190, looking to lose to 130-155 (we'll see how low I can get while still being sane). I might be a couple yrs older than you, I'm 29. Add me as a friend if you'd like.

    It's hard to consider alcohol as something one needs to cut back on, in college it got to be every weekend! I still love getting that bit of buzz, but it sometimes becomes an excuse to eat super unhealthy bar food. :( boo. However if i get a lower tolerance, that one glass of wine once in a while will go a lot longer then it is now. so that's something to look forward to!

    my mom just has half a glass and its is plenty for her!
