Talking Just starting out

Hello all,
I am once again motivated to take my dieting and exercise seriously. My fiance (I'm getting married this October) and I have been trying to stay strong on the South Beach Diet, so anyone who has advice would be appreciated. Also, my girlfriend and I are working out twice a week together and twice a week apart, but I figured this would be a good place to write my thoughts, feelings, get inspired by all your, well, inspriational stories, and allow myself an avenue to vent my frustrations and resist my temptations. I am super excited to continue to better myself day by day and have a feeling I will become a frequent blogger. I'm looking forward to what this website and these blog posts will do for my success in losing the weight I want to lose.

My fiance (who's name is Ryan by the way Mamato4under5) is a great help to me. I was kind of in the same place, but I found that since he knows he's helping ME by going along with what food I cook and getting exercise, he'll reap the benefits as well. Just let him know you need his total support, which means having the same mind set and habits as you. I have a feeling since you're getting married you know each other well and he should totally be able to realize that you are not trying to change him because you don't love him, but it's because you DO love him, and some times the things we do for the ones we love is difficult, but I would be surprised if working towards a goal you both will benefit from doesn't draw you closer together. Hope that helps.
