    I also have my Bachelor's Degree in Accounting. I have a son who is 3 and a daughter who is 9.5 months. Since I had my kids though, I am a stay at home mom, but I do books out of my house.

    That's what I want to do! I wanna get established in the career field so that I can switch and work from home and raise some little ones! :happy:

    I'm Kathy, a Clinical Resource Nurse for sick newborns and newborn rescusitation. I have been off work for 1.5 years now due to Shoulder surgery, and am going back on Jan. 6. SCAREY. I'm very upset, cause I'll be back to 12 hour shifts, have to get up at 0530, so when am I going to exercise? I don't get home until after 900pm, then make kids and my food for next day, and will have to go back to bed to get up so early. HELP. It's going to stress me bigtime.:sad:

    Hello fellow Blue Losers! I work from home crunching sales numbers and selling! I've lost a little more than 40 pounds since Sept 1 when I started paying attention to what I am eating. I love the challenges on this site-they keep me focused and accountable.

    I am a stress eater. I had a couple tough weeks with Christmas and the death of my father in law right before but I managed to stay at my 40 pound loss. Working hard to remove the last little bit of remnants. I didn't do well during this time BUT I was able to get right back to it and I am so proud of that! It's so easy to get in a funk and stay there but I truly believe the support on this site helped encourage me to do what was best for me and to eat what I should not what I wanted. While I was snacking and picking at the comfort foods that we had in the house, I felt yucky - two days of eating right and I feel so much better - more energy, just overall better in every way. Maybe I needed a little reminder of the old days and how great I feel now.

    Well I guess I'll go a little more indepth about me. Other than working on my bachelor's in accounting, I work for a label/sticker making company in MD. Nice desk job that pays the bills for now, until I find something in my desired career field. Also have a ebay business selling earrings to make a couple extra bucks and help support different charities. Moved back home with my mom to focus all my money towards these dreadful student loans. Other than that no kids here yet, just a wonder boyfriend of 2years. :bigsmile:

    Hey Everyone! I am so excited to be here! It seems like forever since I was on a "fitness website". I used to belong to another one but found my fitness pal and love it SO much more! So a little about me...
    I just had my baby boy on November 22, 2008 via c-section and I am so in love with him... He is such an angel baby and is so easy! I get my sleep and he is on a every 4 hours eating schedule. I was hoping to breast feed (to help lose some weight too) but he had difficulty because he was a little early... I live with my fiance and step daughter in CA and I am currently a full time mom and student. I am in school to become an elementary school teacher (either 4th or 6th grade). I currently weigh more than I have ever weighed (without being pregnant) and I am SOOOOOOOO looking forward to being me again! I love challenges because they really do hold you accountable and I love the support and new friends :-) Are you all ready to become some BIG LOSERS?!

    Q. How do I add a ticker to my forum signature?

    A. Here's a quick explanation of how to add a weight loss ticker to your forum signature:

    1. First, click on the "Tools" tab, then click on "Tickers" in the light blue bar below the tabs to reach the section of the site where you can create your ticker.

    2. Follow the steps to create your ticker. They should (hopefully) be self-explanatory.

    3. When your ticker has been completed, you'll be shown two boxes with code in them to display your ticker. Click on the box on the left (BBCode) - this is the code you need to use on the MyFitnessPal message boards. Highlight all of the code in that box (most browsers will do this automatically once you click on the box). If the code is not all highlighted, you can right-click on the box and choose "Select All"

    4. Once you have highlighted all of the code, right click on the code and choose "Copy."

    5. Now click on the "My Home" tab, then click "Settings" in the light blue bar below the tabs, and finally, click on the "Change forum signature" link.

    6. Right-click in the box where you can type your forum signature and choose "Paste."

    7. Finally, click "Save Changes."

    Once you've saved your new forum signature, every post you've ever made should now display your ticker at the bottom of it. You don't need to create a new post to test your ticker - just look at any previous post, and the ticker will be displayed there if you've followed the steps properly.
