Hello!

Hi everyone! I'm Jill and I'm new (obviously).

Got a bit off-track this past summer, when I quit my job and moved back to my hometown. My goal is to be healthy again. Ideally, I'm trying to lose 20 pounds (get down to 120-125), but am more focused on getting fit and being healthy.

I work out 4-5 times a week and Irish Dance once a week.

I need people to help keep me motivated So add me please!

Hi Jill

My friend does Irish dance, she's even gone to ireland once for dancing (we live in canada)! It's such a great workout, isn't it? I remember I tried it and i was sucking wind by the end, lol. Obviously she is A LOT more fit than I am...

Good luck on your weightloss journey!!

Thanks! Yeah it is really hard, I did it about a year and a half ago. I got into amazing shape, and then an old injury caught up with me and I was forced to stop. Irish dance can make even the fittest person feel out of shape though. I'm looking forward to having amazing calves/legs again though. You should try it again

Good luck to you too!

ahah yeah, it is really hard, especially when you have 20-30 lbs to lose because you're so close!

but yes good luck, and don't resitate to send me a message if you need motivation or anything

oo! Irish Dance sounds really fun! Went to Ireland a few years ago, and was able to watch it in person.. one of the neatest things I have ever seen! Where did you learn how?

jillybeanruns

You should give it a try! There are Irish dance schools all over the place...I'm sure if you google where you live you can find one! I lived in ireland for a year and decided to start dancing a few years after. Let me know if you need any help
