Hi everyone, My name is Rachel. I don't know my way around here yet so be patient please. I was looking for someone local to give and receive support but you guys rock!! The amount of support I have witnessed is amazing and goes to show you don't need to be close by to offer support to people.

I am 37 and I have husband and two kids, Jackson is 7 and Mark is 3. We were hoping for another baby but two years later it hasn't happened. Probably because of my weight. I need to lose about 25 kg (don't know how to convert to pounds!) It doesn't seem like much but it rules my life and it doesn't help when I am the only one around me that cares about how I look.

Hi Rachel. I am new here too. Inquiring minds need to know so I found a kg to lb converter. 25 kgs=55 lbs. You're right it's not that much but when you don't feel good about yourself because of it, the number doesn't really matter.

Thanks Ronda, that is really helpful. Can you tell me how you add info to your profile. I notice people have pictures as well and I want to add stuff too.

Hi Rachel! At the top of your page there's a "User CP" link on the purple bar. Click on that and you can add to your profile and such. I'm not all too computer savvy, but I bet if you poke your way around a bit you could put something fantastic together!

Welcome to the board! It's nice to have folks here at all times of the day!!!

Thanks for the help. Now that I can sort myself out, I can move on and look around a bit. Cheers.

Hi and welcome! I am cheering for you!
