New here and Panicking!!!!

  • Hey Ladies! I am new here and i am 22 years old and 5'0. This would all be great EXCEPT I weigh 180 lbs!!!!! Not only that, I am getting married in exactly 361 days! I have put off losing weight because i figured i had over a year to lose it all...But now here we are at a year and im the heaviest ive ever been!!! I dont have any support at home because my fiance who is 5'11 and 200 lbs is a firefighter and ASSURES me he is "in the peak of his physical fitness" LOL Well, i really hope that i can meet some people on here who can help me out and vice versa!!! Im downloading my workout music as i type this...Here goes nothing!!!
  • Has anyone ever been this disgusted with oneself?
    Well well....
    Here I am, 8 days from my 32nd birthday and looking at a scale that reads 245lbs. Wow... I'm still trying to figure out exactly how that happened. Needless to say... it isn't pretty. But... seeing as I've dubbed this "My Year" I must do something.
    And... I also must say... this is such a wonderful tool to have! I've given myself 365 days to change this ridiculous body I've created. I can honestly say the one shining light is that, after reading some posts on this forum, I know I'm not alone. I hope to meet many of you in the coming year! Your stories are truly inspirational.
    Coll... looks like we're in a similar boat... I'm not getting married... but I have the same timeframe!
  • welcome! You have a good bit of time to make a real difference! I would recommend doing Weight Watchers to keep you honest each week and help you make the right changes. Remember that after the first couple weeks that healthy weight loss is about 1-2 lbs per week. You are going to do great and look great!!

    Oh. and Congrats on the wedding!!
  • to 3fc site and here I am sure that you will find the support you will need. Also the forum offers a lot of information and recipes to keep you going on your way.
  • Collxobaby & MyYear32--welcome you 2!! I am on the same time frame as you guys. turned 29 in september and I refuse to look the same when i turn 30. so count on me if you need any support.

    what plan are you guys on as far as diet & exercise?
  • I think you should look at the different plans, and see what is going to work best for you!

    Best of luck, you can do it!
