Hi, new here!

Hey everyone!

Just droppinig by to introduce myself.

My name's Eli, I'm 31, and I have 2 beatiful children, a little boy named Isaac, who will be turning 5 in January, and a Maélie, my sweet girl, who turned 2 in August.

I've been battling weight issues since the beginning of my twenties - basically since I have been diagnosed with depression, then hypothyroidism. Antidepressants were a nightmare - at first, I put on 35 pounds in about 4 months! Then, lost some, thanks to my wonderful endo who diagnosed my hypothyroidism and got me under proper treatment.

I've been in a hypo "relapse" this past Spring and gained 25 pounds back... Yuck. We're still in the process of adjusting my meds. I'm feeling better, but I'm not quite "there" yet. I hope I'll still be able to lose the weight... I'd like to be down to 135 pounds in time for summer.

Thanks for letting me introduce myself! This looks like such a wonderful site!
