|  Hello from Canada
Hi Everyone,
My name is Steve and as you can see from the title I am Canadian. I'm 30 years old.
I have been overweight since my late teens and unhappy with my appearance until recently. I have learned so much about losing weight and getting in shape. Not only the physical aspects but the mental part as well.
I have dropped 30Lbs in the past 6 months and for the first time in almost 10 years, I weight under 170 LBS. That being said I can hopefully add something to this community and be inspired to reach some of my own on going goals at the same time.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Steve |

Great story Steve! What part of Canada are you from? Are you done losing weight or still maintaining?

Hi Merle,
I'm from the Toronto area. I still have a couple pounds to lose before I hit my goal weight of 165.
I'm training towards running a half marathon and eventually a full marathon. About 18 months ago I couldn't run more then 2 minutes straight without feeling like my lungs were going to jump out of my chest.
Are you from Canada as well? | |

Thanks Irving. I am proud of what I have accomplished so far.
Thanks William, I have had a lot of help along the way and I'd just like to share what I have learned. Especially after failing so many times before. | |
