in Introduce Yourself
Hello!, My name is Annie, I'm 18 from Canada.

My body holds weight very strangely. I've always been muscular naturally, so I've always been heavier than most people. Right now, I am considered to be "overweight" by the BMI chart, even though I only wear a size 5/6. I weigh 150 lbs. This has always annoyed me, it just seems ridiculous because I know I am not fat. SCALES LIE.

My ballet teacher has asked me to shed a few in order to match the other dancers (this only sounds cruel). So that is why I am here. Also, to be more healthy in general.

I'm excited!!!!!!
