Default new, just saying hi

hi there . i am 24 years old and have been half heartedly on atkins for 1 month and lost 12 lbs. now i am ready to get serious and am really happy to have found this site! i have gained a lot of weight in the last five years after having 3 kids in a row. i am now done having children and am ready to regain control of my body. my goal weight is 130. i have 46 more pounds to go. i have decided to weigh in on every thursday and try to stay off the scale every day. i am on my 4th day cheat free. my hubby and i are taking the kids to the fair tonight so i have to stay strong! i really want this so i think i will do okay!

today i weighed in at 170! so not the 168 i wanted but all in all im very happy! i have a question though, i changed my signature and it changed it for all my older posts, which looks a little funy since right above the signature my posts are not at that weight yet. what happened?

That's the way it's set up. Don't worry, when people read it (most) they will realise you've changed it as time goes on CONGRATULATIONS on the weight loss!
