Hello, all!
My name is Jessica and I joined this website today. I have been dealing with my weight issues for 10 years, but I hit rock-bottom this past week. After failing to get pregnant, I was finally diagnosed with PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). If I ever hope to have another child, I MUST lose the weight. This was my wake-up call. So my ultimate goal is to lose 65 lbs,, with a mini-goal of 7 lbs by June 1st. I'd love to find some people with similar goals, to work with and support each other on this journey!
