I am just wanting to introduce myself

My name is Rachel. I live in Indiana with my husband and two dogs. I am 24 years old and a psychiatric nurse. In May I found out I was pregnant despite being 6 months out and on the shot! I have been lurking on this forum ever since. This is our first child and we are surprised, but very excited. I have lost about 106 pounds total (14 of those since becoming pregnant). I don't have any friends or family that have had weight loss surgery, then got pregnant so I am hoping to be a part of this wonderful support system. Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day!

Congratulations on your miracle, your weight loss, and Welcome!  :)  Hope to get to know you better.  Have you added yourself to the baking mommas list?

No I have not added myself. How do I do that? Thanks for the reply :)

I believe the gal that does that is LaurieRexler or something like that.  I have a terrible headache and can't remember.  She's a sweetheart.  Look for the Baking Momma's Post.  She used to do it on Fridays, probably still does.  If you go back and look a little in the history, you'll see it.  :)

congrats and welcome!

Welcome to the board. Congrats on your little one on the way
