    Weigh in: 259.8 lbs
    Net Difference:1.4 lbs

    Sorry that I have been MIA but my parents were around for a week, and I just didn't get much time for mfp. Didn't do so well on logging everything, but I probably got my 8 glasses of water in a day... I drink water like a fish! Wait, fish don't drink water, do they? Anyways... Don't know if I'll manage the mile run, but I'm gonna try to keep my calories in range! :) Good luck ladies!

    Hey I just joined MFP today, and don't know anybody on here. I'm a freshman with no major (although they like to make me feel better by saying I am undecided) and spend all of my time focusing on trying to find out what I want to major in, and desperately trying to pass my classes. Meanwhile, the "freshman fifteen" is constantly hanging over my head. That's a nightmare in itself, since I'm already technically obese. My main goal is to come back for my sophomore year with a new wardrobe and more confidence.

    Please add me :)

    Current weight: 194 lbs
    Goal Weight: 140 lbs

    Weight: 184 lbs
    Net Difference: -0 lbs

    Weekly Challenge Results:

    1) I completed my diary every!
    2) I exercised 1x for at least 1 hr

    The monthly goal of drinking 8 glasses of water did NOT go well for me. That has always been a stuggle for me, but the challenge kept my water intake higher than normal. I think this month of eating veggies is going to be much easier for me!

    I am in! Hopefully its not too late to get in on this?? I am new to this site, so don't really understand groups, but I love the idea of a group of college-aged people motivating each other. I started at 188, currently at 175, and my goal is eventually 125ish (i'm a shorty!). Senior Music major :)

    Do you all use sugar? Or some kind of sweetener? What are your thoughts on that...? I'm a recent convert to splenda, but it hasn't seemed to help or hinder anything. I was reading on WHmag that people who use sweeteners are more likely to be overweight than people who use sugar?

    I have gained 4 lbs since I started school this semester--which is when I started using splenda as well--but I don't think it really has anything to do with it. More like not exercising as often and eating the random BK meal on the go...

    re: sweeteners . . .
    I'm an advocate for real/un- or lightly processed food, rather than chemicals (and of chemical "foods" aspartame, the main ingredient in many artificial sweeteners, has one of the worst reps around). Stevia is fairly new, so I'm not sure what its deal is. For me, artificial sweeteners (especially in "diet" things, like diet coke) leave me ravenous. I crave food all day long, and they drain my energy. Because of this, I stay away whenever possible (and I avoid processed sugar/ high fructose corn syrup as much as possible).

    Whenever I can, I go for raw local honey (it eliminates my allergies) or agave nectar (lower gylcemic index). In packaged foods, I look for things sweetened with beet juice, or that don't list the sweetener as the second ingredient--I'm looking at you, cereal. I try to save sugar for dessert and eat it only sparingly.

    That's my goal, anyway.

    Oh! and I put cinnamon in my coffee and yogurt as a "sweetener." It's the best. Yum.

    Late to the weigh-in.
    11/5/11: 148.3
    Diff: -1 lb.

    I was doing well until the weekend hit again. I have really got to stop with the overeating on weekends. But now all the Halloween candy is gone from the house... thank god! I exercised every day with 30 DS and I am trying to run at least 2-3 miles three times a week.
    I'm excited about the new challenges I love veggies and definitely don't eat enough! I'm not a very fast runner but I'll do my best!
