as of last night I am officially engaged. We're planning our wedding for about a year or 2 out now. Before i walk down isle though, i want to lose 100lbs. that'll put me around 180lb.
I dont think ive ever been more motivated in my life to lose weight. Im so excited i feel like im bursting with joy.
I plan to go to the gym atleast 3x a week and go back to my keto diet and being more strict with it, no cheat days just keto.

100lbs in 2 years is a very achievable goal.
You should focus on sustainable changes to diet and exercise for the long term, things that you can live with forever. The problem with diets is that they end. And when they end people generally go back to eating how they were and the weight comes right back. Lifestyle changes do not.
It's great that you are motivated right now. Just remember that motivation isn't a constant and comes in waves. If you want to achieve your goal, and keep the weight off after the wedding and for years to come, the change needs to come from something deeper than motivation. It needs to come from a sense of self love, for your physical and mental health, for your outside to reflect your inside, and for longevity in your new life.
Not trying to discourage at all - you have set a very achievable goal, just remember that there is a whole life after the day you walk down that isle.3
