I recently got engaged and now more than ever I want to lose these last 20lbs. I want to look and feel my best on my wedding day!! It's been 9 years since I've been at a healthy weight and I miss how great I felt everyday!! Just need support to push through this because no one around me eats healthy or exercises and that makes it so much harder!!

    I've been in that situation where everyone around you is eating bad so it's so hard to maintain the healthy eating. What I've noticed helps a lot is if you meal prep for the week. Meal prep all meals plus snacks. Bring that with you to work (or wherever you are going that day). What I did for awhile was in the morning I would login all of my meals I had prepped into myfitnesspal, then if there was anything I didn't eat later on I would go delete it. It helped me to log it all ahead of time and see that I had no calories left allowed to eat. That way when someone offers you that piece of cake you have it fresh in your mind that you already are at your maximum intake for the day.

    You're welcome <3 Congrats on the upcoming wedding too. That's so exciting! Another thing I found that helped me suppress my appetite is water with lemon juice (if you are busy like I am I just bought the lemon juice you can squeeze out of the bottle instead of having to cut up a lemon). Plus the citrus helps give you energy which is always a plus.
