Hello Everybody

  • Hello.

    So, Im a girl from Europe. 23 years old. I've been a bit over weight for years, but havent really bothered to do anything about it. I've tried to work-out for a bit once in a while, but never really been too serious.

    Until one day in December 2011 where I all of the sudden decided that things are going to change. I decided to eat healthy. Work-out. Cut back on chocolate and soft drinks. Eat more vitamins.
    I am actually doing great. I've been staying on track. I started in January, and I've lost 9.7 pounds in three weeks. I am now down to 166 pounds. I dont have a goal weight right now (which I guess its not really good) But I definitely wanna get down to 143 pounds, or more.

    I work out 7 times a week. About one hour on my Wii (Zumba Fitness).
    Its a lot of fun. Im very shy, so I've never really felt comfortable at a fitness center with a lot of people around. So Zumba is perfect for me.

    Anyway, I am here because I wanna get in touch with people in the same situation as me. So if any of you wanna talk, just let me know
