Default An official "hello"

I've posted in this forum a couple of times and thought I would take a minute to officially say "hello".

Although I'm not technically in the hundred pound club but I am hoping that my (eventual) 98 lb loss will at leas get me an honorary membership.

I am close to my goal and I know for certain that this will be the last time I ever have to lose any significant amount of weight as a result of my own bad habits. I can't even imagine turning back at this point and that is a real first for me. Anyway, as soon as I began reading the posts here I knew that this was the forum I could most relate to. Almost all of the topics have hit home with me and you all are so supportive of one another. I hope you don't mind if I crash the party!

I look forward to getting to know all of you better. I know I'll learn so very much by doing so!

Thanks, Kimberley! jawsmom comes from Jake, Addie, and Will - my three children. It is the only username I've ever been able to remember. I still can't keep up with any of my passwords though!

Your username is very cool! Can't help with the passwords...I'm bad with that myself. I mix up important dates in with old nicknames and stuff no one but I would know, but then I forget which dates I have where and with what nicks, etc.

I agree that you are close enough to 100. You've done awesome on your weight loss. I use the same name pretty much for all my logins as well. As for passwords I pick movies and use characters from them and alternate so sometimes I have to go through 4-5 passwords before getting it right.
