I got married 2 years ago. I was at 208 pounds. My all time low was 191. I was relatively happy at 208, especially looking back at those photos now!!!

Anyway, my sister is getting married on March 13th (yes Friday the 13th!!!) and I decided in December to start the journey again after a few health issues.

I've lost 13 pounds so far and want to lose another 10 by the next dress fitting in the middle of February (or since I am so far away from where the wedding is, maybe lose 15 if I can do the fitting 2 weeks before the wedding). Then I'd be ALMOST to my wedding weight.

So another 10-15 by March 1. YAY. Then I can work on the next mini-goal!

Just want you to know I believe you can do it!

Jenn...we need to be buddies. I am in the same boat. I am my sis's Matron of Honor in April and I have to lose some of this wait by then so my arms don't jiggle in the dress. Spaghetti strapped of course! I had to buy a size 22, but want to have to take it up because it will be falling off of me by April. I have lost 8#s and want to lose a total of 37 to be in the onehundreds by the wedding. I will then keep going to 150 or below over the summer. Mini goals are good for me. I am learning that I have to tell my brain that I will be healthy. It was so hard to not stop at fast food this week, or eat the donut in the lounge, or eat the snacks the PreK kids bring. It is a whole mind thing for me. I am doing a fruit flush detox this weekend so I can rid my body of toxins. I am using it as a time to get my mind really straight about what I a want for my life. My four year old told me that I was fat and I don't want to be that way. I want to be healthly for my children this summer. Thanks for letting me get some of this out. I will love to keep up with your progress! Maybe we can be buddies. I have facebook and Myspace. Do you have them? Email me if you wish.
