Hi! My name is Dana. I've had an account on here for several years but I've just recently started to use it more seriously.
I started this year at 199 pounds. After almost 8 years of infertility issues, I found out that I have PCOS and am prediabetic in March. I was able to take off 10 pounds by starting medication but didn't make the food changes necessary to keep going.
I decided a few weeks ago that I really need to start working working on my health so here I am!
I have another doctor appointment in early November and need to show some weight loss and lower my blood pressure and cholesterol. I'm currently sitting at 188 pounds. My ultimate goal is somewhere around 130ish but my first goal is 179 before my doctor appointment because I haven't seen the 170's in about 7 years.
Anyway, I'm making my health a priority right now so I'll be active on here! Feel free to send me a friend request!
