hi, i'm manda. i'm currently in a long distance relationship (no comments needed on that). i'm going to see the bf and meet his family in 16 days. i've actually lost weight since he saw me last. but i've lost alot of muscle tone. i moved to a busier area of town that i'm not comfortable going to take my morning walks and such in... i feel gross and very unattractive. and i know if i see myself that way, its going to shine thru. how can i tone up and/or lose some weight in that short amount of time!

please help!

I'd say try to keep moving. Take the stairs, maybe take a bus to a mall where you could walk around a bit, go home from work a bit later & do your walk in that neighborhood...& watch what you eat, definitely

ps. private message me anytime.

this is going to sound really weird, but do you happen to live in Regina?
