Losing my Freshmen 15

Oh the life of a college student. It's pretty crazy to see that I'm finally in college, but holy moly they weren't kidding about this freshmen 15 thing.

A little about me, my name is Delaney, I'm 18 years old and I've always been a fairly active person. I enjoy hiking, geocaching, swimming, volleyball, basketball, kayaking, you name it I'm probably down to do it. But this summer I worked crazy hours at my insane job so I didn't get to be my active self, and well I went into a short depression. I wasn't able to hang out with my friends, nor enjoy the outdoors, and I began to eat on the go a lot. So I gained weight over summer and now I have some pretty bad habits. Don't fret- I changed jobs so I'm all better in the mentality area, but I'm missing being called the healthy one in my family and group of friends.

So here I am, asking for new friends to help motivate me to break these new habits and those whom will let me help them! Send a request! Or comment below!

    Hey! As a college student I can relate to the Freshman Fifteen. It's a curse! Thankfully I've managed to lose most of that but I still have 20-30 pounds I want to lose (to be a healthy weight) so I'd be happy to join you on your weight loss journey! ☺

    College junior here! It's hard to lose/maintain weight loss when you've got exams, long nights and a meal plan. I gained the freshman 15 and finally lost it over the course of the last year and I'm looking to lose another 10 pounds to get to my goal weight. Feel free to add me if you want another person to lean on!
