I have to lose weight!
 

So I, like many others, have tried to lose weight multiple times and been, shall we say, unsuccessful. I bought a scale tonight, weighed myself, and almost cried. At work last week, one of my customers felt it was appropriate to tell a total stranger than she (as in myself) was fat....since when is THAT appropriate conversation? My boyfriend and I have also been taking about marriage, and the last thing I would want is to be self conscious on my wedding day.
That's my story!

Welcome! Im new here too, and I have been there, infact still am....working on changing that now. Good luck and try small steps. One week try upping your water intake, then the next week try eating more fruits, etc... Just a suggestion... :-)

You can do it! And congratulations on your future wedding, such an exciting time!

welcome jessica i am also new here and have to lose 118 lbs to be healthy... i think that is absolutely dispicable what that woman did!!! but you know what as hard as this may be dont let that woman get to you.... whether your fat or not you need to be comfortable in your own body.... congrats on your pending marriage ... together we can do this and you will lose the weight as will I! good luck!!!
