Trail mix! Dollar General has a lot of different kinds of trail mix for a lot cheaper than other places have. About 160 calories per serving, which is about a handful. Usually tackles my sugar cravings -- I'm a big fan of the chocolate peanut butter one they have!

Online dating is one of those things that you hate, yet you keep coming back to (I have the same problem with eating crap, coincidence?). Men on dating sites, it seems, are there for all the wrong reasons, while the women are actually looking for something real. The bright side to online dating is that it occasionally…

Swimming and doing yard work! I mainly hate exercising because of the sweat...but when you swim you burn an awesome amount of calories without that. As for the yard work, someone's gotta do it, and it makes the time go by quickly.

The donut that's sitting on the kitchen table in the office, staring me in the face right now.

I pay $30 a month at the YMCA and it includes everything: gym use, gymnasium use, the pool and any classes I want to attend. It couldn't get much better!

I didn't love the university themed expansion for The Sims 2, so I don't know how to react. Unfortunately, real life has hit and I can't drop $60 bucks on new games any more, so I don't know if I'll find out :(

Geesh, tough crowd. I thought it was pretty funny.

This is the best group ever created on MFP. I've been playing Sims since the day the first ever Sims came out. I could be an addict, but I won't admit that ;) By the way, I'm Elle.

A chair. Literally. My cat sits on me no matter where I am. ;)

Absolutely! I'm in Pittsburgh, brrrr! I'm 5'2 and would need to weigh 140 by St. Patty's. My ultimate goal weight is 125 as well. Working out in this weather is a drag! EDIT: I'm 21!

Exactly how I felt. And then I felt like I wasted valuable moments of my life.

It must be the superhero glasses.

Hi everyone :) I'm Elle, 20 years old, 5'2" and trying to lose almost 50 pounds. I just graduated from college two weeks ago and am hoping that starting a new chapter of my life will keep me motivated and able to lose the 45 I gained while I was in college.

I think that I tell myself that I'm NOT single by choice...but I tend to shut out anyone who's ever actually interested in me.

OUCH. I graduated with a journalism degree and write witty Facebook/Twitter updates for a living.

Elle in PA! :happy:

Operation beautiful hit my university last year. I remember one day being really down on myself and heading to the bathroom in the journalism department. Someone had left a note on the wall mirror in there that said "everyone in the world is beautiful," with a link to operation beautiful's website. It made my day a little…

I'm 5'2" and would be happy hitting 130, though 120 would be great.

I get in to the site every couple of months and then forget about it again. I'm going to really try to keep up with it this time around!

Woo! :)

I'd like to join. I could use some sort of motivation.

Story of my life.

mememe!

Use any of the Dove products, they're made to be nice to your skin :)

wellll thanks everyone! :) When I say "for the most part" - I mean that sometimes I have to rely on convenience food from the cafeteria to fit in to my busy schedule. Unfortunately (especially since I have to pay for a meal plan living on campus), I don't really have a choice but to eat crap sometimes. I've never taken…

I've been trying to stay away from the caf food here. It's hard since I'm paying for 10 meals a week, but I've been getting more salads and looking at the nutrition information of everything before buying it. I've also been going to the gym at school alot, I used to hate it because I'm not the type of person that feels…

hi :) I'm a college student too, and my goal is also 130! All my friends are skinny too :(

Oh, yum! I want to try these :)
