Hey! I will be a sophomore in college this year, and my freshman 15 were more like freshman 25. This year is all about making better food decisions and sticking with my workouts. Feel free to add me!! :)

Calories first, exceeding my protein goal (100g) second (but almost as important). I also try to keep my carb intake below 150g because I normally find myself hungry on the days I eat more than that (and consequently eat less protein/fat to fit my calorie goal). I tend to keep a eye on sodium, not to restrict it, but to be…

First time I saw a PT we did a fitness test and talked about my past experiences and future goals. A few days later I got a copy of an exercise program and we had a session teaching me proper form on the movements. Since then, I have been seeing him every two weeks or so - he follows my workout, adjusts my form, modifies…

This is super helpful. Thanks for sharing!

Hey! I am a young person. Yay. And I go to college on the west coast as well, although I am in Europe for the summer. Good luck on your journey!

Same here. Feel free to add me! :)

A few years and at 50 pounds lower, I used to be a runner. Ever since hitting my highest weight of about 220 lbs, I have been trying to get back into running. Yes, I can tell that it is harder on my joints than it used to be at my lower weight, but that does not stop me. It just means I really have to take it slow. Really…

Hey, I just started recently too, and it looks like we have a pretty similar weight loss goal. Good luck on your journey, and feel free to add me :)

I'd suggest adding more protein-rich foods to your diet (lean meat, some cheeses, that kind of thing). Try to get closer to your protein goal. It is helping me feel more full at the end of day.

Hi! I recently joined MFP, and I've got about 60 to 80 lbs to lose (depending on how I feel when I get closer to my goal weight). I am doing weight training, getting back into running and taking a Zumba class a couple times a week. Feel free to add me :)

Hey! I'm a rising college sophomore too and I have had this problem before. This is my fourth or fifth time making an account on MFP, and I have always deleted them because I wanted to see that "perfect" record on here. What has been helping me is understanding that even if I overeat by 500 or 1000 calories one day, it is…

Oh, that is simple! I had been wondering if it would still do the calories counting then. Thanks so much!

Had a gym session with a trainer! Did some cycling and running and a bunch of strength training exercises. We went through the program I will be doing on my own, and oh my, I'm in for a fun summer.

Thanks!
