in Introduce Yourself
In the past year, I've gained 40 lbs seemingly out of nowhere (if nowhere means moving in with your boyfriend and eating literally whatever you want without regard to calorie count), I'm looking to shed off the pounds (and honestly get rid of these DDs that cause so much back pain) and get back to my 'original' size, looking for friends around my age to get motivated by the progress they've made. 35 pounds to go before I truly feel comfortable in bikini season!

    Hey girls, I'm 24. I'll be 25 in April. I went through the same thing when I was 20. All the drinking, partying, and eating out in college sure did catch up to me!!! It's taken me quite awhile to slim back down. It's definitely a mind set and a lifestyle change. The first step is to decide to be serious about losing the weight. It's VERY difficult because noticeable result do NOT happen overnight. I think I was cutting calories and running a few times a week and I didn't see too many noticeable results for a couple months. Stick with it though! Start with small steps-- like no fast food, then no pop, etc. Don't just dive right into calorie cutting mania-- I found it was harder to stick with it if I just cut out everything all at once! Hope this is helpful!

    Hey! I'm 20 and just started! I'm looking to lose 15-20 lbs hopefully by the summer. I know exactly what you mean about eating whatever you want around your boyfriend. For some reason I treat boyfriend time as like vacation time and just eat crap. I've started allowing myself 1-2 special treats a week. It's working so far and I find I enjoy the treat more since I have something to look forward to! I'll add you as a friend :)

    Hello, I'm 23 a new Nurse as well as recently (kind of) married. Husband excersizes on his own and eats what he wants. I've gained 25lbs since meeting him. I was at my highest in december of 2007 ( height 5'2 and weight 210lbs) after a bad breakup in 2008 I joined a gym and lost 60lbs. Unfortunately after meeting my husband I let things slip and I'm back to 175. Would really be nice to have other people in the same boat and looking for encouragement. I have no idea how to add people but feel free to add me. Hope you reach your goals!
    P.s. also live in a rural area with no gym :(

    I understand where you are coming from I gained a few pounds (was worrying about calories) and I do not like where I am now. Now the journey starts and hopefully we can encourage each other to continue down the right path!
