Back - as a married woman!

Hello. I am back - I just deleted my old account after not really using it in 2 months - plus I got married and wanted to change my username ;)

I am 27, live in the burbs of Chicago, just got married and I AM FAT! Actually, I am morbidly obese if you go by those charts. Scary, right?

I have always been fat. I do know that logging and tracking does work because it worked for me when I lost 20 pounds at the begining of the year. Then life happens...and I lost motivation....and gained 10 pounds back in a MONTH!

My biggest problems are eating out way too much (mmm I just love fried food), snacking and being lazy. Summer is basically here and I can tell I have lost all muscle in my legs that I worked so hard for at the beginging of the year. BLAH :(

I am really looking for friends (Male of Female) to help keep me motivated, give me some tips, and to keep me going! I will do the same. I also plan to make my diary open so others can see what I am eating.

I also need to lose 50+ pounds so if you are in the same boat, friend me :)

-Katie

    I'm with you, sister! I was at my very heaviest when I got married, a year ago. Heavier than I am now actually, and I'm 8 months pregnant! I'll add you! By the way, you're beautiful now!

    Congratulations on getting married! I looked at your profile to check out your dress, which is beautiful, and see that we live in the same area. There are just too many good restaurants around here! But you can do this. I still enjoy the good restaurants and fried food occasionally - I just make sure I have the calories for it from a big workout. I'll send a friend request.

    i HAD over 50 lbs to lose, now i hae 10. I feel kind of like a seasoned pro since i have done this once before (lifestyle overhaul, then i slipped) and i have been losing weight for the last 4 months on this "go"

    feel free to add me, I share my diary, and I'm a good example of moderation and healthy eating (most days)
