Default NEWBIE - Need support upcoming Wedding
I am not new to this sitem but it has been awhile since I've been on (last time June 18, 2010) I am over weight (210 lbs and I am 5'4"). I have 4 children and I am getting remarried in the Spring in Las Vegas. I have tried every fad diet out there weight watchers, Jenny Craig, South Beach (which I lost good in past - but missed the carbs too much to stay on it) I am just trying to do my own thing by counting calories and adding exercise in (which I haven't been a very active person in the past). I don't have alot of friends and the ones I have are skinny. So I am looking for some motivation and hoping to be able to motivate others or at least to encouage others when they are about to go off the wagon. This is kind of like AA for me.

Hi my name is Shelley and I am Overweight.....

Congrats on your wedding! That is so exciting! I can say from experience that an upcoming wedding is both a huge motivator to lose weight and a huge stress source. My best advice is to try to pass off as many tasks to friends and family as possible that include things like the cake testing (sooo tempting...) or tying gift bags (tedious!). And in the end just know that your fiancee isn't going to be paying any attention to your weight on your wedding day, especially if you're glowing with happiness.
