Default Wanted to say "hi"

Hello,

My name is Tanya and I am a 28 year old single teacher living in Ontario, Canada. I am not new to trying to lose weight and I am really motivated to stick with it this time. I want to enter my 30's fit, strong and confident both in mind and body. I have struggled with my weight all my life and yo-yo'd constantly. I know have found an excercise I love-zumba and a healthy eating plan that I can stick with. I hope that I can motivate people as I lose weight while getting inspired by others. Best of luck to all!

Hi TANYA . . . from another Canadian . . . born and raised in Toronto but have been "down east" for better than 15 years.

Hope you'll find time to drop in on The Crazy Canuks Cluck Club over in the Support Groups area from time to time.

Hope you are having a terrific Thankgsgiving Weekend . . .

Welcome to 3FC, Tanya!

I used to live in Pembroke! Many years ago... like, about 35.
Is Pineview Public school still there?

Best wishes with your new plan! Zumba... I've never heard of that...

Welcome Tanya from London, Ontario. Pembroke is a lovely little town...

I've seen Zumba on the Shopping Network here. I may have to look into that.

I am going to my first Zumba class today! I'm sort of new to this whole fitness class thing (I used to just jog and do team sports), and have loved the kickboxing and "boot camp" ones I have done so far. I'm not the most rhythmic person in the whole world, so I'm worried Zumba will get the best of me, but hopefully I won't fall too hard over my own feet or anything!

Hello there! I am also from Ontario Canada. I understand your post completely, I have been a yo yo dieter for awhile now also. I seem to lose weight from January to springtime, then in the summer I gain back what I have lost, its very frustrating!!

So I have decided to stop waiting for January and get started back on track now! Maybe we can become buddies and support each other through this!

Hope to hear from you!
