Hi there! :)

My name's Rachel and I'm new to this place. I'm just about 23 (on the 18th!), and I want to lose about 28 more pounds to reach my goal. I started losing weight in May of 2009, starting at 190 lbs, and now I'm about 148 lbs. I'm finding it's so much more difficult to lose the weight than it used to be now that I'm closer to my goal. I hope that MFP will help me out, and I think it will. It's awesome how I can track everything I take in and burn... so nifty! It's also great to have other people to communicate with about fitness and weight loss. Yay!

Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and say hello :)

    I had to say hi, mostly because my name is Rachael, I am 23 and I started out with 27 lbs. to lose! :) Anyway, this site is fantastic. It is exactly what I needed for success. I am a visual person, so seeing what I am putting into my body and also how exercise effects it really helps motivate me. Good luck!!
