HELP me! bride to be!!
 
Hey ya'll! i've really enjoyed reading all of your supportive post and messages. I could really use some help myself... I'm getting married on June 3and we're going to Jamacia for our honeymoon. I was about 20 lbs lighter last year, but after starting nursing school I've gained it all back. I had lost the old weight on phentermine, but it's totally unhealthy and I need a feasible life style change. I started the SBD on tuesday and I messed up a little today without even thinking about it, but i'm not giving up. I'm gonna start running cus i know that really helps the pounds fall off. Has anyone lost about 20 pounds as quick as i'm hoping to? Any suggestions? thanks!

I have lost 15 in 4 weeks doing ww. and I don't exercize. I am sure if I was running or doing something it would help. but with 3 small children and bad knees I don't have the time or the pain controll to get it done.

I am sure you can do it. good luck and congrats on the upcoming wedding!

If 20 pounds is all you need to lose to reach your goal weight then I don't think it is very realistic to expect to you lose that much in one month. That seems a bit too quickly to be healthy.

Perhaps adding toning exercise would help you to look trimmer while doing a strict phase 1 for two weeks will maximize your loss. Make sure you get your 4 1/2 cups of veggies and that you are eating enough so that your body doesn't go into starvation mode.

thanks so much! The veggies are about the only thing helping me survive this diet!!! it's easier to grab a cucumber than fix a steak!
