College kids losing some jiggle?

Options
Hey all;

First off; I'm new here and so fu*king stoked about MFP. It seems like an accurate way to track cals in/out - something I have never been able to do consistently. On that end; I am in constant need of motivation - accountability is my best friend when it comes to this weightloss business. So, if you feel inspired; let's be friends. I have your back if you have mine. :)

While I completely welcome friends and motivators of any age or background, it would be so beneficial to me to meet some people on here who are in their college/post-grad years...I think there are challenges related to losing weight that are unique to our age and our living on college campuses.

So, if you've been there, done that - or if you're doing it now - let's join forces. These 50 pounds won't lose themselves.

:) - Jody

    I'm in my 2nd year of uni and trying to completely rid myself of the 20+ lbs I gained while living on campus in first year (that damn cafeteria food!). So far I've lost about 10lbs, but I still have a ways to go!

    I'm 19 and in second year. I have lost almost 40 pounds and am right around my goal. I'm open to friend requests, but be warned - my diary is NOT full of water, spinach, and "diet" foods. :) Good luck on your journey!

    I'm graduating in May and I've always been overweight. My goal is to lose 100 pounds and I'm at my half way point. I started losing in February and have lost 54 this year. I have 46 left! and school ends tomorrow so I'm getting back on schedule :) I am getting back to logging my food and not drinking sodas! I can help you stay motivated! I'm getting back on my dvd workouts! I've done it all at home so it can be done!

    Been there, and the freshman 15 does exist, and so does the Sophmore 20. I just graduated and working hard to work off the late night pizza/study sessions. Support is always helpful. Add if you want. :)
