Default Stickin' to it this time!

And nothing is going to stop me!! I've been on this site for a few years now and last year I lost about 40lbs and got pregnant and gained it all back + some . YAY for baby, NAY for weight gain! Well now I'm unpregnant and almost 11 weeks post partum. I've been back on the wagon for about 2 weeks now and I've lost about 15lbs which I'm sure alot of it is water weight from my pregnancy still. I'm down to 234, but I was 204 this time last year.

My fiance and I, after 2 children and almost 10 years together next year, have finally decided to get married!!! The wedding is set for June 16th 2012 and I'm staying on track. I will not even look for a wedding dress until I'm at least under 200lbs and I want to look good and feel good on my wedding day.

So I'm going to stick around here more and stay on track, I love the support from this group!!!

Congrats on the new baby and wedding!

And hey, water weight or no, a loss is a loss. That's fifteen pounds you're not carrying around anymore. You should be proud!

Thanks, I definitely am...it's definitely slowed down. I've only lost 1lbs since Friday but I'm in a different mind set this time. 1lb is 1 less than I was before and if I lose 1-2 a week it's better then staying the same or gaining lol. I really just need to push myself to work out more. I can eat healthy all day long, but I need to get up and move more!!! That's definitely my biggest problem!!

Good luck and congratulations!

One thing I'd add... I'm having my wedding ceremony this summer and back in January, when I was just below 200, I tried on a wedding dress. Ended up buying it, knowing I could get it taken in. Last week I had a fitting to try it on again and after losing nearly 25 lbs since I bought it, the change is amazing! It's such great motivation to have that before and after image in my mind now! So while I understand your desire to wait to look at dresses, for me it was a great way to stay on track and not slip up, especially because the dress can't lie to me about how I fit in it, but my eyes never see the changes in my own body when I just look in a mirror.

Be seeing you around.
