Hi my name is Anna!

I have literally just joined this site and wanted to offer my support to anyone who would like it. I would like to use this site to help me understand the challenges people face while trying to lose weight as I am currently training to become a personal trainer.

About a year ago, I started helping a friend out. I'm sure she won't mind me sharing....she was very overweight and for a number of years it was something we didn't ever talk about. As she gained more weight I wanted to say something but didn't think it was worth risking a friendship over! Her weight NEVER bothered me but it was effecting her health! Anyway, last year I was talking about changing jobs and how I wanted to work in sport and was thinking about personal training courses. A few days after that, she asked me if I was still thinking about it and if so, did I fancy helping her!

This came as a massive shock, my initial response was "YES of course". And well the rest is history. It hasn't been an easy year for either of us, but both of us have made some major changes...she's lost 20kgs and I've quite my old job and started a PT course and a part time job in a gym!

I AM NOT claiming to be an expert! There's is a great deal I still have to learn....

Anyway if you would like any support, send me a message or add me as a friend! Please send a message with the friend request too!

Thanks

Anna
