New to MFP

Good morning all. I love this site, I'm hoping it will help me keep accountable. I am looking to lose 35lbs, but I'm taking little steps so I'm looking only towards this first five pounds so I don't get discouraged. I just started a holiday bootcamp at my gym two days a week and I have been able to go about 5 days a week. I am going to make this a habit and now to figure out eating healthy.
I have ulcerative colitis which makes eating healthy a bit of a conundrum for me. The usual eat more fiber, fruits and vegetables doesn't fly with me. I have to limit the type of fiber I eat and can only do fruits and veggies in very small doses and not on a daily basis. I am working on it though and I will see this through.
