:happy: I have to say that I love this web site. It has helped me so much. I just wish that I had known about it when I first started losing weight. But, I guess I've been doing okay.Since January I've gone from 204lbs. to 179lbs. My goal weight is 140 lbs. I'm a 50 year old single mother of two teenage boys. I have struggled with my weight since giving birth to my oldest son. I just wanted to say HELLO to EVERYONE.

    Hope this works! I do not know if this is where my iniital message should be posted. Someone e mail me and tell me how to post on these boards. I am single RN working for work comp insurance company. A totally sedentary job. Fighting illness, some weight related some not. and this winter I hibernated. Need to start to walk just around my property to build up my strength again. Walking and breathing together what a challange! I just found this site today, like the idea a posting food and getting the calorie/carb counts. Thanks! See you all again soon if I can figure out how to post.
