Hey everyone, i'm new here and i've been having a bit of a rough time losing weight (read as: i can't get motivated to do so). I'm 19 and starting my second year of college the day after tomorrow. I started being overweight when I was about 11, and weighed my most during my 11th grade year (186 lbs). Then I lost about 20 lbs. my senior year through dieting, then lost 10 more my first week of college due to me not eating. Then, I experienced the freshman 15, and gained even more weight this summer due to an ongoing stressful personal life.

Anyway, I'd really like to get down to about 135-140 lbs, as I'm tired of feeling sluggish.

Well, hi then.

Welcome!

wooooo freshman 15...I remember those days. I know it's hard but you have to really plan what you are going to eat and try as hard as you can to make good food choices. Hang in there!

Hey lemonyfresh!

I just started here, too - and our stats are pretty close! I'm totally with you on your journey. My ultimate goal is going to be similar to yours, but I'm taking baby steps here.

Have fun and I look forward to hearing all of your successes!

Hi, I'm new to this board but not new to being overweight! I have decided on the lap-band procedure and am at the end of all the requirements my insurance company requires. I have a tentative date set for Sept. 21 for the procedure and I am both nervous and excited!
