Hello all! My name is Brandi and I am 25 years old. My husband and I just recently decided that we want to try to have a baby! So of course I am all excited until I go to the doctor and find out that I am 162 pounds. :grumble: That was a real eye opener to me because I was about 115 when we got together. I never thought that I would let myself go like this. So here I am counting calories and logging my exercise. I am definitely excited about this though because I have already stuck with it for 2 days in a row and haven't gotten bored. I have just about the shortest attention span on the planet so if this can keep me entertained it must be good!
