    Welcome! I'm kinda in your boat... I just signed up a few days ago, too. I'm 25 and would like to lose around 70 lbs. I don't work from home, but I definitely work in a cubicle! BOO! Good luck and I can be there for support if you'll help support me :happy:

    Hey, I'm 23 and my goal is also to lose about 50 pounds or so. I'm pretty much stuck to a desk and a computer 8- 9 hours a day, which sucks. Let's help each other do this! :)

    Hey guys!

    I'm 25... I've been on this site for a while now.. Have lost 22lbs, and have another 60 or so to go (I started at 222.4). I'm totally looking for encouragement and support, and want to reciprocate... it would be great to meet more people and stand as one in this weight loss journey.

    Best of luck to you all!

    Hey everyone! I am new to MFP, too. I am 23 (almost 24) and lost about 20lbs prior to MFP through WW but find I need more support than a weekly meeting. I work in an office, but I am a social worker, so I am constantly moving around the building which gives me a fair amount of daily exercise. Feel free to add me!!

    Hello! My name is Nikki, and I'm 25. I have lost 30 pound in the past (185-155) and kept the weight off for a little over year. Unfortunately I had some trouble last semester balancing work, school, and several other things causing me to not exercise and gain 10 pounds back.

    Well I'm back and I've already lost 5 pounds :) and I am determined to get to my ultimate goal weight of 140 pounds, that I didn't get to last time.

    Hey! I am turning 24 next month, and am looking to drop some serious poundage. I used to dance and run, and over time had to focus more on school work. I am currently on the C25k program, and trying to get through an AWFUL plateau.

    I just joined this week, and am also looking for motivation and new friends!

    Feel free to send a request!

    Heyas :) I'm 25 (26 in April!) I've been on here for a little under 2 months, and seriously, getting some people around to support you is so key! I've lost 25 lbs so far, hoping to lose a bunch more. I take care of my grandpa at the moment, but studying for a couple of different things along the way. So, add me if youd like :) (Anyone else feel free to as well!)

    I'm 28 and have been active on here for the past 2 months, and I love this site. I'm was looking to lose around 25 lbs, and I'm just about halfway there at this point! Only 9 more to go!
    My job is a little more active than yours, since being a nurse I spend most of my shifts on my feet...but it really isn't exercise, my body is used to it by now :0( Wahhh! LOL
    I'm sending you a friend request! I love to be active on people's walls and in the forums when I have time! :)

    Anyone in this friend, feel free to add me! I'm at about 1200 cals a day myself, due to not having much more to lose. It's tough!
