^.^ This. I am an engineer too. I probably go to one of the nerdiest colleges in existence. And yes. I calculated the exact number of calories I need to burn to lose weight, and I LOVE Big Bang Theory because I understand it haha.

I ate chipotle :P I am just going to go to the gym and work it off! :)

I started end of May 2013, current weight 188, goal weight 160, and I have lost about 25 pounds. And I am 5'8" :P

1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese has 15 grams of protein. Also egg whites are full of protein. :)

Spinach and a little cheddar cheese :) yum!

I know what I will be making every night in college now! haha

The first person noticed I had lost weight without me having to ask :) And it was my best friends high school brother! Yay!

Do you have a meal plan? I just finished my freshman year and I didn't really gain anything because I walked everywhere. It is a good idea to not keep unhealthy snacks in your room because those will be tempting. Also just try to make healthy choices in the dining hall because they will always provide desserts and such. (:…

I work 8-5 and I am the same way, I never felt very hungry at college but now that I am at my internship for the summer I experience the same things. I usually want to eat, like other people said, out of complete boredom. So now, I try to pack healthy snacks so I can munch on them to make time pass. I also buy sugar free…

haha yeahh... nobody there :(

well, thanks :)

To make the guy who left me for a small skinny chick this summer jealous when he sees me again. :)

^.^ this. Fat free cottage cheese is very low in calories and very high in protein. Also try egg whites for breakfast, they are low in calories and high in protein.

A year ago, you would have wished you started today. Tell your mind to get out of your body's way. :)

^^ YES :)

Egg Whites :)

Hey, I was a competitive swimmer for the last four years, and a captain of the swim team at my high school so I got really excited when I saw this post! First of all, don't get discouraged. We had tons of girls who it took a long time before they could breath properly. You aren't the only one struggling with it. As a…

I told someone last night that I had lost 20 pounds and he told me it was all water weight. I really hope that isn't true. Water weight cannot be 20 pounds can it?

stylish :)

That is my personal goal anyways :) I would love to join.

My reward if I lose 30lbs is dying my hair too! :) I wouldn't mind a cute sundress either.... ;) congrats!

Try Nut-Thins. They are chips made out of almonds! At first I thought it was a little bland but they grew on me, and they have tons of different flavors!

I do the same thing, I try to distract myself with something else because I also think it is out of boredom. I try and eat a fairly decent dinner and then allow myself a light snack around an hour later. I normally try to stay out of the kitchen and go up to my room to avoid me eating everything in the house!

That is good to know! I started at 213 and it has been almost 6 weeks and I am down to 196. I am hoping to be at 180 by the end of the summer, in another 6-7 weeks. Thanks for the inspiration!

How long did that take you? That is where I want to be at the end of the summer!
