Hello Everyone,
I just started myfitnesspal today and I wanted to introduce myself. I have been overweight since I was 5 years old, and I have had thyroid issues, and take thyroid medication. I finally get that most of my weight is psychological and emotional regardless of my thyroid issue, and I have started to change how I feel and think about myself, mind, body and spirit, and it is already making a difference. I hired a personal trainer, and I see her 3x a week. I believe in myself and that I am going to do this. I have a long road ahead of me, but I am looking at that as a plus, because I have no doubt the views are going to be amazing!
