    The hardest thing is deciding to do it, you've done that now and thats the first hurdle! Keep going and think about your wedding photos as motivation! As long as you're healthy and it makes you happy!

    :flowerforyou: Great to meet you. When is your wedding? I started by making reasonable weekly weight loss goals. Then I have logged all of my food even if I only have one bite I find a way to logg it. Then I started adding more regular physical activity walking up stairs instead of elevator. parking as far away as possible from everything. Even then I really try to concentrate on walking as fast as I can with my stomach and butt contracted. Finally I have gradually worked up to 60 minutes of regular workouts 5-6 times a week. Add me if you like. I have discovered tons of tips that have helped me so far and I would be glad to share them with you. Good Luck
