Hey everyone. I've been using MFP for a few months, but haven't really been sticking too it. It's time for me to get serious, and I need some motivation! Please friend me and I'll try to help you stay motivated too :) I'm also trying to find friends who are in my age group (I'm 22) who are maybe going through the same thing as me. I gained a lot of weight in college and now that I've graduated and will be starting a new job I want to start being healthy and taking better care of myself. Thanks!!

    Speaking from the distant future (37), let me say you're doing the right thing by getting your diet in shape now, before your new job drops your activity level while adding all sorts of snacks, co-worker birthdays, etc., as daily temptations. It'll be much easier to do it and establish good habits now than in a decade or so.

    You can do it!

    I'm 22, just finished school last year, and during my first year at work - working nights - (as well as my time at school) gained back the 40 lbs that I had lost prior.

    I am now restarting my weight loss journey, and love the support I get from everyone here!

    Welcome, and feel free to add me!!

    I was thinking of posting pretty much this same topic. I turned 22 in February, have two kids and am a stay at home mom. I plan to start school online next year in the fall (I have an infant this year and undecided on what I want to do for sure). I'll add you :)

    I'm 25...almost done my masters degree but unfortunately gained some weight due to the sedentary studying! I will be graduating in December and want to get out into the working world looking fabulous! It would also be nice if I could be a healthy example for my patients! Friend me if you would like! We can support each other!
