Hello all! I've been on this website for not even a week yet and I am already addicted! :) My sister told me about this site and I just love it.

I'm a special education teacher from NW Indiana and working towards getting back to my goal weight! I hope to help inspire others to lose weight and I hope to meet some friends here that will help me through this journey!

Healthy eating all! :)
Thanks!
Kim

    Welcome Kim! :flowerforyou: I'm a relatively new comer myself and I love it here! People are very friendly and the site is very motivating!

    I was near my goal (10 pounds away) last year at this time myself.....I know it's frustrating. How does 20 pounds creep on so fast anyway??

    But, I'm here for the long haul and will stay once I reach my maintenance weight as well. People are just too nice here...I'm hooked. :tongue:

    Keiko, I believe that painting is by Vincent Van Gogh and is called "The Scream"...

    That sent me looking. Since I like Van Gogh. But I found out that this painting was actually done by Edward Munch. I learned something new today!

    Now back to Welcoming Kim to MFP:smile: Thanks for letting us slightly hijack your thread.
