My name is Mandee, I'm 21 and I live in Southern California. I have a four month 4 old little girl who is the love of my life...and thats exactly why I am going to lose weight. I was fat before I got pregnant and since I had my baby I'm a whole dress size bigger (a size 26!!). I want to be a healthy role model for my little one...but if I continue on with the way I've been eating I'm afraid she'll be an obese child and that scares me. So here I go. This marks the first day of my "diet". I prefer to look at it as just eating better and less. I'm excited and very hyped up about this. Wish me luck!! Kisses!
I've been counting calories-- eating about 1800-2000 a day, because I'm nursing, and varying my exercise. Walking has been the most helpful for me lately.
