I'm a pretty recent college grad (degree in Food Science) just trying to lose the weight I put on while there. People like to joke about how it's all beer weight and whatnot but really it's from a year of seemly endless binge eating. But now I'm in a better situation.

So this site has helped me so much to make goals and progress that I've been recommending it to all my friends that mention the word diet. Other than that, I don't talk to my friends about weight loss because, quite frankly, I'm not at an unhealthy weight. I just don't like it and sometimes people don't get that. So it's been nice to see all sides of the spectrum on this site, with the emphasis on healthy living. I'd rather be able to run another half marathon than fit into a size 2. :)
