Hi there! I'm Tanya, 30, a British ex-pat living in Toronto!
After losing over 150lb 6 years ago, I struggled to maintain my weight. I met a lovely woman, moved half way around the world to be with her and over the space of 3 years I literally doubled my body weight.
I tried a few weight loss groups and things here but it never really stuck.
I am finally ready to do something about it. I have plans in place, a good support network of friends and a drive to get this weight off for keeps.
This community seems fantastic, and I really look forward to trudging with you guys!
