Cool New from Upstate New York

My name is Lisa and I'm finally ready to get some help.
I'm 21 years old 5'1 and 163 pounds. I've gained 50 pounds in 3 years. Its messed me up emotionally. I don't like to go out anymore because I'm afraid to see people who haven't seen me in a long time.. and I can't find any clothes or bathing suits that fit right.

My boyfriend just proposed, and we set the date for May 2nd. My goal is to lose 40lbs before then so I can feel great in my dress and just finally stop feeling sorry for myself.

WOW!
Congratulations! I am sure you will succeed!
Try not to worry what others think, if they love you they will support you, just like your soon to be husband!
Good luck and welcome!
