Well, I am originally from Montreal, Canada. Met my husband and moved to the USA in 2007. When I moved here, my lifestyle changed so much. I didn't do as much exercise, drove everywhere... The pounds started to add... I used to be able to eat whatever I wanted, but at least I was working out... walking to work... walking home... walking LOTS! Well, I don't do that anymore and two and 1/2 years later, I've put on a good 40 pounds. I can't wait to get back on track and take control of my life again!
