I work full time and go to school as well so I understand being so crazy, busy.

Welcome!!! I have been a member of MFP for a while, but didn't realize they had forums like this until just last week! I have added a couple of friends on here that struggle with PCOS, and now I'm more careful to work out and not go over my calorie count each day. I would suggest this first! This is the first time that I…
