My name is Kerri - im 30 , married and have two step young adults & i live in Arizona although i am origianlly from Australia.

Well ive been a member of ivillage under another email for a long time and really not visited the site much but today i did and found this message board and boy am i glad!!

I have over 100lbs to lose and it has taken me till this point in my life to decide to make the change to a healthier more active life.

I recnetly joined a gym - got myself a personal trainer 2 times a week & have been reading and learing all about calorie intake and burning calories etc - there is so much more to learn about how your body loses weight than i ever realised.

Anyhow - i belong to other neat forums and many of them with weightloss boards but those people all have 10 or 20 lbs to lose and i never quite feel comfortable sharing my stats so i hope that i can do that here.

Im not sure where to start or how this forum works but im working on it.

Being as i have older kids and dont work meeting people is hard so im hoping to find some good friends and support as well as being a friend and supporter to others :-)

Look forward to "meeting" some of you!

Hi Kerstin... oops i thought i replied i dont know where it went. Anyhow i live in Mesa - near Westwood High School actually - do you know it??

We got ourselves(hubby & stepson work out too) a trainer coz then we knew that at least 2 times a week we would go to the gym because we paid for it.. lol. We actually go to the Bally Total Fitness near the Fiesta Mall.

I noticed in your profile that our moving to the PIney Woods of East Texas - how funny - as last year we moved here from that area - Mt Pleasant in fact! :-) What a small world - i didnt like Texas tho the humidity is a killer!!!

Anyhow i look forward to getting to know you and others on the board.. and thank you Theresa for the welcome also :-)
