Hi,
my name is Mila, I am 21 Years old and I am also new here.
I am not extremely overweight but a couple of weeks back at my doctors office i got weighed and even my BMI puts me in the category "overweight".
I have always been chubby and my mom has tried to get me to lose weight for almost ever but I refused, I felt comfortable being curvy, but now I don't feel right anymore.
I used to dance professionally but since I started university I have barely done any sports (couple of dance classes here and there) and I have put on some extra weight (all in my tummy area it seems!).
I currently weigh 143 pounds (argh!) and I want to be around 120, so my goal is to lose 20 to 23 pounds by the time I graduate, which is in may.
I have never been on a diet, I don't think I have ever lost weight in my life, i just keep putting it on, so this will be a real challenge for me.
My idea is to quit all the little sweet and greasy things I sometimes eat between meals (I am already a healthy eater, I don't eat junk, I don't eat fried food and I don't eat red meat), cut down on my calorie intake (no mayo, etc...) and work out in a gym 3 times a week plus go take a dance class once or twice a week. Also I have decided to try Oolong tea, not as my main dieting factor but as a little help (I love tea anyways!).
Quickly about me: I love dancing and snowboarding, study biomedicine, have been with my boyfriend (who says I am his venus, however I look) for 2 years now and my mothertongues are spanish and german.
I hope I can get the support I need to start this, love to all of you, Mila
