Medicine and weight??? Help please!!!
I've gained a lot of weight lately, and most of it is due to medicine I sorely need, but makes me gain weight and shoots my prolactin up the roof.

Hi! Newbie here!
hi! This is my second day on MFP. I'm not aiming to be under my calorie goal as of right now because it's quite the transition: My goal is 1200 cal. and I hate vegetables, so yeah.
