I am fairly new to this site. I've been doing this for about a month. I've lost 8.5 lbs since beginning (actually 13 if you count re-losing the 5lbs I gained on a trip to Texas). But I'm really digging this calorie counter! Makes me more accountable for the things I put in my mouth. I'm not afraid of carbs anymore because I'm actually choosing the good ones!

I just started reading the boards and was really touched by the friendliness and support you all put out there. I was recently diagnosed with PCOS, which causes insulin resistance. So I am on Metformin, and I had to change my eating habits altogether. At the same time, nutrition became more and more important. I now understand a lot more about my body, especially the yo-yoing weight and my inability to get pregnant.

I'm finally hopeful.
