Starting out. Be my friend!

Been a member for a few months, starting actively using just a few days ago. Me: Mom to two kiddos, slight nerd, love reading and writing, crocheting, LOVE fishing and camping and anything outdoors. Suffer from major depression and know that being really fat doesn't help. Also my meds make me gain more fat. Not a good combo. Need to increase my self esteem and this will be a great start. I would like to be healthy, not uber-thin, and I will not stop eating pizza or pasta, I have only realized that I shouldn't eat the entire box or pie! 1200 calories for me is too low I know I will cave so I have set it higher to ease in.

Any tips for beginners or those who would like to be pals, please send requests as I think being social is good mentally and will help my (and your) journey to health. Thanks!
