Hi everyone,
I am a 40-ish educator from Madagascar and I am in the US to study. I have been lurking on this site and swapping DVDs for about one year. I started to be more active on the forum this year because there were one or two links that just called my name. I am also a terrible procrastinator and VF is my favorite excuse for taking breaks from my proposal writing I really like exercise but I always find excuses to fall off the wagon. Part of it is that I am trying to lose a lot of weight and get back in shape after being a couch potato for nearly 2 years. I had a good excuse for being lazy: I suffered from depression (without being aware of it) as a result of the loss of a loving one and the stress of school. I also went on a mega guilt trip a few years ago when there was civil war in my country because my family lived under siege conditions for 6 months. Thanks to VF I have found a few workouts that I really like doing. I was able to stop wasting my money on bad or inadequate ones. I have more than 100 DVDs that attest my efforts at finding the right one! I can't believe all the things I learned by visiting this forum. I have also learned to look for deals and coupons before making purchases I try to give back as much as I can by responding to other members' requests for information. |
