Default 3 months to 21

Today makes it exactly 3 months until my 21st birthday. I really hope to drop a pant size and in the 170s by then. I don't want my weight to hinder the fun I know I am going to have. There is this dress that my mom got that I currently cannot fit in, but I want to wear on my big day.

Anyone else have a birthday present to themselves like this?

Hey, best of luck with it. Picture yourself in the dress, and every day visualise it. It helps as it will keep you focused on the finish line!! Set small goals such as 5lb increments or that to keep you driven, sometimes it can be daunting thinking how much you have to lose but small goals along the way takes the pressure off. I havnt a birthday present as such however there are a few things I want to do when I lose the weight, its good to have something to look forward to and aim towards!

How far off do you think the dress is? What does it look like?

The dress is grey and has all of these beads on it that are like a purple-grey. The back drapes down to the lower back. I don't have a picture because it's chilling with my mom in California. It's a size 10 and normally I wear an 8/10 but right now It's just too small. If I get to the weight I want to, I should be able to fit into it. If not, my boyfriend's birthday is a month after mine and that will be my new goal.

Good plan. I'm hoping to be a UK8 by graduation. We can do this!
