Hiiii :) I'm brand new to all of this and would like some lovely motivating friends to help me get through!

I'm 5ft 2 and looking to loose around 30 pounds by next summer (maybe even before!)

    Want motivation ?

    For your health ... to be around longer for your BF and ultimately your life partner, family, peers, career, studies, those you will affect in a positive way in the future ? I find having a longer future to be very motivating.

    22 year old, finishing up my Senior year at university. Did fine managing weight until I moved off-campus and got a desk job this summer. Just sent a friend request (and open to others, just send me a message with the request!).
  • If there is anything I can do to help let me know. :)
  • College student as well! It's a struggle being in school and having all the temptations but you can do it. Find some great people on here and they will keep you motivated. It sure has helped me :) Good Luck!

    Are you living on campus and eating cafeteria food? You may find the cafeteria management can be very helpful. They work with standardized recipes and portion sizes, and they generally know exactly what the nutritional breakdown is. I suspect they would appreciate the fact that you appreciate their expertise.
  • Hi (: I'm around the same age, and I'm 5'1"! I'm trying to lose 15-20 pounds.
    I've only been on MFP for a few weeks, too! I'll add you.
  • I am also a student, and will be 19 in January. I'm trying to loose 40 lbs (:
