Hello Everyone!!

My name is Michele, I'm 37, and just started using this site last week. I have never been good at writing down what I eat, but with MFP, so far so good!!!! My only issue, per say, is that it says I'm not eating "enough" calories and am in danger of "starvation mode". Not sure what to do about that......
Anyhow, I have gained alot of weight over the past 2 years. I found out I have PCOS, and have had some other "female" medical issues that have caused me to "balloon" up!! Having PCOS makes it harder to lose weight, and I really got fed up. I had to be in the right frame of mind to try to fix all this, and I think I am now. I'm hoping to make some weight loss buddies here, keep up the good progress, and also LEARN how to be healthier and reach my goals. After having my second son, I never could get the baby weight off. Well, my "baby" will be 7 next month!!! ;) Time to fix myself once and for all!! Thanks for taking time to read this!! Hope to get to know you all better SOON!!
Hugs,
Michele
