College student in need of a buddy - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

nighttimemagic · 06-21-2004, 06:00 PM

Hi all! I'm 17 (though 18 very soon) and in desperate need of a buddy. I'm currently 5'6" and about 183 pounds. My weight has stayed fairly constant these past few years, but I've decided I really want to change my appearance and especially my habits. Ultimately I'd like to lose about 33 pounds and get down to 150. Right now that is my goal, as I haven't been that weight since.....well, I don't remember. Anyways, I'm entering my first year of college this fall and would like to get into a routine (who knows, maybe even avoid the freshman 15?). Anyone who would be interested in being a buddy and helping me stay encouraged would be great!

I'd love to buddy with you, I just really need someone who knows what it's like. It's not the same when my best friend encourages me (really easy for a 110 person to say it's not that bad). Anyways, send me a private message and I can give you my email from there.

hi i am 18 going on 19 real soon! I am 5'9 and weigh 200, i used to be heavier around 272, i need someone to buddy up with and an exercise buddy as well. I would like to lose around 35 more pounds, hope that we can buddy up. what kind of exercise do you do?

Well, being in like the desert of California, exercising takes determination...and needless to say, I'm still working on that. It gets so hot that I have to get up way early, like 5 AM to beat the heat. I just started, but a friend of mine and I are going to go biking and of course with our heat, we swim alot. So yea, this is all new to me, I just want to get myself accustomed to just getting out a breaking a good sweat I guess. Anyways, any tips you have would be great!
