in Introduce Yourself
I am a 27 year old mother of 3 boys ages 5,4, and almost 1. Having PCOS and having babies so close together has not done the body good. I am starting T25 workout and clean eating starting Monday, August 5 and I would like to have someone to do this journey with me. Not necessarily the same diet or workout but with the same goals and can relate to my personal life not just health. Accountability always helps.

    Height: 5'7
    Weight: 265.8 (current)...280 (starting) Lose 8 before MFP and 6.7 with MFP.

    Was diagnosed with PCOS at 30 (I'd already long had my first child but I was trying to have another). I have long since given up on that battle but my weight was up and down. I capped at 280 before my doctor told me that glucose level was at 99 and the "at risk category is 100". I got really depressed for about a month, then started meditating again and found my light at the end of the tunnel. I'm now working diligently to get down 100 lbs as quickly, as healthily (don't think that's a word) as possible without killing or hurting or doing more damage to myself. I'm with you if you'd like!

    Hi ladies. I am 5'4" 242 lbs and while I don't have PCOS that I am aware of to date, struggling to conceive.
    I started My Fitness Pal as a way to get healthier in hopes that it will help us in starting a family.
    I have hypothyroidism, been on Synthroid since February and so far it is not helping.
    Read recently that Gluten Free can make a difference so just about three days into it.
    Although our stories aren't identical I'd love a group of ladies with similar goals to keep me accountable!
