Hi, new :)

I'm new... Well... sort of.
I've had MFP since the new year, but I ABSOLUTELY was not taking things seriously until recently. I had changed my diet a bit, but exercise more than normal activity was unheard of.

So, now, taking this serious... Eating cleanly, doing the thirty day squat challenge, and throwing in a hodge podge of cardio/weight at home, and walking 1-2 miles every night. I'd like to work up to running and I'm considering picking up 30DS.

I'm a 44 year old single working mom, four kids (had them close together so my body never really recovered between), have PCOS, have been overweight for most of my life, but definitely a yoyo... I would fluctuate between 165 and 200 often, but for the past two years I've been stuck right around 200.

I find that I need positive encouragement often. My boyfriend insists that I'm perfect the way I am, and groans at this process--even though I insist that this is about being healthy, and not Barbie. I'm here to give encouragement and hopefully receive!
