23 Year Old Losing Weight For a Better Life & To Combat Pseudotumor Cerebri

FitChick_FroQueen

Hey ya'll! My name is Diamonds. I'm not new to MyFitnessPal. I joined in 2013, but decided I should finally introduce myself. I lost 30 pounds using MFP inconsistently, but I completely stopped and I slowly gained it back.

In 2011 I was diagnosed with Pseudotumor Cerebri, a condition where there's too much spinal fluid on the brain. There's still no explanation as to what causes this. I started going blind and had emergency surgery. The shunt was placed but I lost some sight in my left eye. I had a shunt revision last year and I'm already experiencing some symptoms again. Since PTC is prevalent in overweight women, I think losing weight will do me a lot of good. And I'm also tired of getting my head shaved, lol.

I just started Insanity: Max 30 on Monday. I'm so serous about losing weight and getting healthy. I'm ready to change my life.

Feel free to add me. I could use a few MFP friends.
Good luck to everyone on their weight loss journey!
