Hi, my name is Shanda I am getting married in June 04, 2016!!! I was 205 pounds in Jan 2014! I have maintained about 50 pounds of that off the last 2 years. My lightest was around 135 and that was last March, before my fiancée and I began dating. Over the course of the last few months I have packed on 15-20 pounds settling into comfortableness with my fiancé and his 3 kids! It's completely different life now. From being single working out 4-5 times a week and having no tempting foods in my house to a household of 5, with kids who love sugar and carbs =( Additionally, I now have a 1 hour (each way) commute.

I used MFP a couple times before and there is no secret, logging your food is a MUST. Every time weight "creeps" I can count on two things I have been doing, good Belgium beer (carb city) and failing to log my food. It's even more important than the gym!

Anyways, I have at least 25-35 pounds to lose, before the wedding and our Honeymoon in Bermuda! I need accountability and actually have a tangible goal to keep me motivated. Feel free to add me so we can motivate each other!

Age: 35
HT: 5 foot 1

    You are very close in stats to me.
    I'm 39y/o
    5'2"

    I got down to 149 at my lowest adult weight, and was 220lbs at top
    Married with kids and it does take a toll.
    We are going to the Bahamas in April so my mini goal is to be at least 150 and to drop from there so I definitely feel you!
