New and looking for a buddy!
 

Hey, my name's Lesley and I'm new here :) I'm 20 years old and I want to lose around 30 lbs of fat and put on maybe ten of muscle. I'm definitely not new to dieting (I started this diet out at about 150, not too long ago) but I'm new to exercise and I'd love a motivated buddy to help me along and that I could help along too. Maybe even a few buddies? I'm very dedicated and I'm online way too much (dumb college life) so it'd be great to find some like-minded people to share the rest of this journey with. I'm so glad I found this place :D Thanks!

Lesel,

I am just starting too. I have been a diet avoider forever so I bring no real experience but a lot of enthusiasm. I am trying the South Beach Diet. What is your plan? I would love to be a supporter. I am in college too but a bit older :)

Hey! Sorry I didn't respond earlier, I went to the gym :o for the second day in a row, that's like a record for me, as sad as that is. My roomie (a deathly thin girl by nature :mad:) and I normally do pilates once a week but I'm really motivated to lose as much flab as I can and add as much muscle tone as I can by mid-May and bathing suit season.

It's great to be buddied up with someone who's new too, we can learn together :dizzy: I don't have a ton of experience either but some, I'd love to try and help you reach your goal while I try to reach mine :D What's your name? Mine's Lesley. It's cool that you're in college too, and from Salt Lake City, my roomie's from Sandy.

Anyway, as far as plans go... I'm not on an actual diet plan, I'm just calorie and fat gram counting and trying to exercise (cardio and/or pilates) everyday. It's seemed to work so far. How's South Beach working for you? Do you like it? Which one is that, exactly? Anyhow, I'm excited to be dieting with you! :hug:
