Hey! My name is Yana and I live in Holland! I'm 17 years old and I've been losing weight since a year or so. I'm half Russian, so that's why I have a Russian name c: currently I'm busy learning Russian too, so I can actually 'communicate' with my family in Russia when I'm visiting them next year.

My goal is to lose another 4 kgs (8lbs or something, who came up with these weird measurements?) and then I'll be at my goal weight. I'm not sure if I'll go any lower because then I would be underweight, but if my stomach is still sticking out once I reach 50kgs I will lose more.

I really like games, and cooking healthy meals. For myself, mostly, because I seem to like them the most. My family doesn't want to eat healthy so it's pretty hard living here, but I will survive!

So I think that's everything about me! If you want to know more, you can always ask ^^ I hope I'll have a great time here c:

Thanks! I also really like foreign names, especially when they're uncommon ^^ I used to dislike my name, but now I'm pretty okay with it, I guess. And yeah, my dad bought a blender because he wanted to live healthy, and now I'm practically the only one who uses it while he eats crisps and waffles every day, healthy eating my *** :\ but as long as he doesn't force me to eat all that fat, I dont really mind. Just hope I will never ever have a binge when I'm in his house :p
