    I'm 25 and trying to lose a few pounds (I'd like my freshman 15 gone for good! :-) and then maintain in a healthy way. Last spring I ran a marathon and had trouble figuring out how to train while not losing or gaining too much. Right now I'm training for a half-marathon and am hoping to use MFP to keep better track of things so that doesn't happen again!

    for the record, I'm no experienced athlete-- I just started running to burn off grad school stress and did the marathon so that I'd have something to think about that wasn't school. I'm not very obsessive about training either-- I don't worry about race times and when I train I stick to the minimum mileage that gets me ready for the race and gets me outside a few times a week. I do want to be more conscious about eating the right recovery foods.

    Hallo! I'm 21, had to delete quite a few people because of EDs that I am sympathetic about and felt sorry for them, but it was wearing me down. I really only exercise and work out to lose, so I hope that having more friends lose constructively helps me too! Let's support each other!

    I'm 21 and have a bunch of food intolerances so I'm all for healthy :) Add me if you like! I have a hard time being friends with people with EDs as well, especially on sites that encourage weight loss. It just makes me want to mirror them (bad! bad! bad!).
