    Yes mam! Pre-med right here :):) Emergency Medicine. I guess I can't practice saving people if I can't save myself, right? :)

    I'm a college student! I just started on here, and I could use some fellow college friends. Feel free to add me!

    It's tough to avoid the campus junk food... :/ Let's motivate each other!

    Class of 2012. :) Not a college student for long haha.
    I'm at Michigan State and am a French major with two minors and a secondary education specialization
    = SUPER busy

    Anyways my case is that my homework load has kept me from doing little to no exercise and over the past couple years I've gained about 30 lbs (all the beer didn't help either ;D ).

    Trying to get back in shape slowly but surely. :D

    I'm in college too! I'm in my last year (hopefully) and what with work and school it is very hard to find time to eat. We don't have very many healthy options on campus so I have to literally plan out everything I'm gonna eat the night before and pack all my food for the day. (i'm on campus 12 hours a day m-th) It is doable though! Feel free to add me!

    In my last semester of graduate school if that counts?I lost the freshmen 15 my first year in undergrad but grad school made up for that because I gained 12 last semester. I work 40+ hours/week between my job and internship, and take 4 courses a semester so my days usually go from 7a-10p. Didn't have time to think about exercising and eating right...was just trying to maintain my sanity lol. Luckily I've lost the weight using MFP since January. Biggest factor was packing my food for the day .

    If only I could learn to love exercise...

    College kid here! Graduating in December of this year with my BS in Agribusiness! It's very tough to focus on school, work, exercise, and eating healthy. Also, to add to all of this, I'm planning a wedding for August 11th! Good luck to everyone and feel free to friend me!

    You are incredible!!! I wish I have the nerve to try more than one class a semester!!
    Remember there is a light at the end of the tunnel and you will enjoy being on the other side of it!!

    Heya, finishing my final year of Uni right here....which is stressful beyond belief!! Always happy to make new friends :) I lost a fair bit of weight in my first year...though that was mainly due to lack of money and a very bad habit of not bothering to make food when I didn't want to deal with crappy flatmates...trying again a more healthy way this time though :)

    I'm a college student! Taking 19-20 hours of classes and fitting in appropriate meals on a budget can be rough!

    College senior here....nursing major.

    I'll second what the pre-med major said - it's hard to take care of others if you're not taking care of yourself.
