Hi everyone!

I am a 28 year old female who needs to lose about 35 pounds. I am going to be in a wedding at the end of October and while I know I can't lose all that before then I would like to at least lose 5-10 pounds in the next two months.

I'm glad to have found this community!

    I started 16 days ago and have lost 10. I am doing quite a bit of excercise, running 3 miles 4x per week in the evenings and swimming 6x. As my fitness has improved, my appetite for sweets has diminished. I own a chocolate/Pastry/ice cream store, all of which I love, and I have had none of it during this time.

    I stand corrected. During the first week, I had a craving for these things overcome me and I binged. But it seems to have been an addiction as now I have no interest in this kind of sugar and carbs.

    So I was once a svelte 190 at 6'4, sporting a 34 inch waist, and porked to 232. So I intend to get back there by Dec. Surely you can get there by wedding day, something you will remember forever.
