<p>hey guys,</p>

<p>I wanted to write my common app essay about weight loss. I lost 85 pounds over 2 years and this REALLY helped me with my self confidence. The problem is however, I think weight loss is a generic, over used topic. But at the same time, it had a real impact on me and helped shape me as a person.</p>

<p>Any advice? should i try writing about weight loss or just avoid that topic?</p>

<p>It’s probably not that overused.</p>

<p>You always want to write about something that means a lot to you. If your weight loss is important, then go for it!</p>

<p>Make sure you write it well though, since this is such a touchy topic.</p>
