    Thank you so much. Your very sweet. And I agree the more friends on here the better. Yeah so I speak English and Spanish too. I am learning Sign language now as well. I love languages! Are you married? Kids? Que bueno es tener amigas :)

    That is so cool how you speak Spanish and are learning sign language. Yo quisiera aprender sign language y practicar mi Espanol para que nunca se me olvide. No estoy casada ni tengo hijos. No I am not married nor have kids. I am a 1st grade teacher and love it. I see from your clicker que tienes hijos. Cuantos?

    Hi. I have a similar or much more amount to go. Can't say for certain what my ultimate weight will be. There are so many factors involved. I am older so my BF% could be higher than if I was in my 20's. I have an unusually large frame, I am not saying that to avoid having to lose weight, but my wrist really is 7 inches around, which is quite large for a woman. Don't even want to get into my shoulder span. And I am morbidly obese still. So, when I lose a lot of weight or rather a lot more, I will have excess skin that weighs something and I will have to consider that. So, right now I am just focusing on getting used to the new lifestyle of calorie counting, exercising, and losing weight. I have at least a year to go before I get to my ultimate goal weight whatever it turns out to be.
