Alana! From Toronto, Ontario

AlanaViau

Hey everyone. I'm Alana, I reign from Toronto, Ontario.

I'm really big on healthy eating and living, although I can't lie... I'm a big foodie... I like trying new things, and I can eat A LOT in one sitting. I'm trying to eliminate that type of behaviour. A lot of people would criticize me, because I'm looking to lose weight, because "you don't look like you need it," but in my mind, it's what I want, and how I want to be.

Over the past 5 months, I've gained 15lbs, and started feeling more unhealthy, I get tired easily, I'm getting sick, and sometimes it's difficult to breath because of the bad diet I've been letting myself get away with.

So here I am!! My goal: To start hitting the gym harder than before... I'm going to be working on a spike diet so I don't have to cut out all my favourite foods. Since I go out for dinner on the regular, I'd hate to do this, but I'm going to start choosing healthier options and avoid my favourites (ribs, wings, juicy burgers, etcetera). I have a good friend of mine who said he's going to help me reach my weight goal and fat percentage by my birthday in July.

I'm happy to have shared my story with you guys! Good luck to everyone with your goals.
