Height: Shorty Here 5' 4"
Default Pre-Diabetic in Alabama
Hi, My name is Mandie and I am 263 at 5'4''. I have 2 children 4 years and 15 months. I had lost down to 191 after having my 4 year old then I became insulin resistant and gained 30lbs in 1 month it has been a battle since then, with my son I gained 25lbs and lost only 10lbs. The problem is I have steadily gained and I am now Pre-Diabetic with the must to lose weight. I am open to any and all suggestions. I'm looking into Weight Watchers and anything that supplies help.


Thanks Mandie
Goal is to loose 100lbs in a Year!

I am looking at WW and calorie counting as well.

Where are you in Alabama? My son is at Ft Rucker.

I currently do MyFitnessPal, but I am looking at WW because it helps you eat healthier. I am getting older.... And I need that.

Hi Mandie!

I am in northwest Alabama. Looks like we have the same thing in mind - loosing 100 lbs!

I'm basically eating whole foods and quit eating processed foods. I also exercise every day. I've just decided I needed to make a lifestyle change. Diets don't seem to work for me. I always gain my weight back.

I'm pre-diabetic too. That should motivate you to get healthy right there - right?
