I really liked Katie's idea of writing an introductory blog post - so here is mine!

My name is Kirsten, I'm 23 and I live in Ontario, Canada. I'm currently in grad school training to become a paralegal. 

I'm only 5'0", so unfortunately for me, any bit of weight gained shows BIG TIME. 

I'm typically very health conscious and very active, but lately I've been really lacking in motivation. I saw Scola's YouTube video and her Tumblr post about the DietBet and immediately knew I had to join.

I'm so happy that I decided to do this and I'm so excited to see everyone's progress! I am confident that we can all lose at least 4% because we are all strong and determined!

I look forward to chatting with all of you and watching our journeys unfold together. Good luck to you all! :)
