New to MFP

Hi

I found this website yesterday and got super psyched. I was paying for a diet plan website that seems an awful lot like this one.

I am not new to dieting. You name I have tried it. I liked this site because it seems straight forward, eat better and move more. After years of crazy restrictive rules my new goal is to create a lifestyle where I have sensible eating habits and an exercise routine.

I have struggled with my weight the last couple years. I was diagnosed with PCOS. Most doctors I have talked to blame the PCOS on my weight but other women who were also diagnosed seem to largely agree with me that syndrome seemed to set in before the weight. I lose slowly and gain quickly making it a real battle. I also have a beautiful 2 year old girl. While pregnant I was all belly and it seems to have stayed that way. The weight around the middle just won't go away.

Anyway, I look forward to meeting others who are in this with me!
