Hi there, my name's Hannah and I'm twenty two years old and pretty much a fulltime student at college.

I'm hoping to lose weight for my auntie's wedding in September, where I'll be a bridesmaid.

I don't know why, but it wouldn't post my original post in full. I'm just under 5 foot and 9 inches, and I currently weigh 12 stone and 7 pounds.

I started properly yesterday and my goal is to have 1000-1,200 calories a day, as well as 15-20 minutes of exercise 3 times a week.

Has anyone had similar kinds of goals and achieved success?

I am a chocoholic and finding this really tough!

Thanks guys!

if you put your mind to it you can do it!!!! I started at 157 last year Oct 2013 had lost down to 135 then gained some back so I am back at it again. The thing is you have to really want it and not make excuses only you can make or break you When I gained some back I had no one to blame but me I had stopped logging and got lazy at the gym I wasn't in the right mind set to do it so I had to regroup and figure out what I really wanted but just never tell yourself that you can't or its to hard always think about why you started
