Hey everyone, I'm new here and really interested to see how this goes
I actually became a certified personal trainer about 4 years ago because I've been heavy my whole life (despite having been a competition dancer!) and wanted to make a change. I was pregnant with my daughter when I did the course and now, 2 children later, I am finally REALLY ready to take the plunge and get fit.
I know I'm scared to get serious about trying because I've never been lean and I'm so scared of failing or it just not being possible... but, I also found out 4 years ago that I had undiagnosed hypothyroidism which is now under control and will hopefully help.
I'm looking really forward to receiving ad offering support here!

I think it is great that your a ceritifed PT. I always wanted to be one of those. You'll love MFP. It's great. Really helps keep me motivated. I worry a lot too if I can do certain things, but try not to worry so much. Everyone is capable of accompishing what they want and more as long as they set their mind to it.
