    Awesome name!

    I'm Elyse, and I'm a sophomore at Tulane in New Orleans, majoring in Political Science and International Development. I weighed in this morning (I weigh myself nearly every day, too) at 154 but would like to get down to somewhere around 125-135.

    Hey this is awesome! Love the name lol. I hope I'm not too late to join... I'll be a junior at UW-Madison this year, majoring in dietetics (so, yeah, it would be AWESOME to lose my last pounds so I LOOK like a dietitian lol). I'm 5'10", and right now I'm at 163 or so, and trying to get down to 150.

    I wanna join! There totally needs to be a group for college students. Love the name btw.

    Hi, I'm Margaret from New York. I'm a rising junior at NYU majoring in Environmental Studies and minoring in Philosophy and East Asian Studies. :smile:
    SW: 125
    CW: 120
    GW: 110

    I probably won't be losing every week as I'm on a 1/2 per week plan and don't have a lot to lose. But I'll still do the weigh in every week.
    Going back to college is going to be so harddddd and a drastic change from my summer routine! :sad:

    I would love to join. I am starting my 5th and final year at Marygrove College in Michigan. I am earning my elementary teaching certification with a concentarion in Mathematics.

    I currently weigh 139.2 and would love to get to 115. I have struggled with my weight a majority of my life. A little over 4 years ago I weighed 110 lbs when I started dating my now fiance. We are getting married in less than 9 months and I would love to have my dress taken in quite a bit - when I bought it I weighed over 150 lbs.

    I love the name...weigh ins on Monday sounds good. I weigh myself everyday also hehe. I think it would be great if we post what exercises we have done, what we have eatten, and how much water we are drinking.

    :flowerforyou:

My starting weight was 120, I'm now down to 116.5 and would like to get down to 110 and STAY THERE (<--the hardest part hehe). Good luck to everyone! Looking forward to helping each other stay on track! :flowerforyou:

    This is a good idea to keep up with what we're doing so we can stay active so we can be supportive for others, and get support.

    So far today, I have eaten 1 cup of raisin bran and 1/2 cup of skim milk and had 1 bottle of water. I'm trying to start running so I'm doing the Couch 2 5K program. This evening I'm doing day 2 of week 2.

    Good morning everyone! For breakfast I had a cup of Kashi cereal with 1/2 cup of milk and a few blueberries. I'm going to go out for a run in a little bit. Today I'm meeting a friend at Stir Crazy for lunch... has anyone else ever been there? The make-your-own stir-fry is really good.... I'm going to load up on the veggies!! Then it's off to work.

    I hope everyone has a great day!!

Today is gonna be really tough for me cuz i had class this morning and tonite with only 3 hrs left to get some cardio in, unfortunatly i cant get to the gym today so im gonna have to do something at home which is hard for me cuz its hard to motivate at home and to occupy the kids while i do it!

    Hey everybody! Can I join? :)

    I just turned 21, and am on a year-long break from University, but I still consider myself a college student! I guess I would be a sophomore or junior; it's confusing since I've switched majors a few times! I am majoring in elementary ed with a math concentration, and am so excited to someday be a teacher.

    Heighest Weight: 206lbs
    MFP Starting Weight: 199lbs
    Current Weight: 199lbs
    Goal Weight: 125lbs

    Sure you can laughing fox!

    So this week I cheated with Mexican, Thurs I ate a french bread pizza and then school had a "BBQ" and had burgers catered by Back Yard Burgers so I ate one of those and a small bag of chips :(, and today I ate a lean pocket and french green beans and tonight I will be eating something not so great for me since we are going to eat seafood tonight and I'm sure I'll get something fried :/, tomorrow hubby and I are going to the beach so I'm sure I'll drink..... I am back to 144.2 today so oh well. At least I'm not cheating on all my meals! Hopefully I can get back into things Sunday. Hope everyone has a great weekend!! <3
