NSV! Very small, but I think it's important for me!

So, I''m talking to a friend of mine about weight loss and wedding stuff. And I explained how I've been freaking out over my weight and such, because everyone wants to look good for their pictures, you know? Well, he said one of the best things ever. He said that my weight is not that big of a deal. The important thing is that I'm getting married, and it's awesome! And I'll have so many other things on my mind that weight won't even be a factor in the day, or at least it shouldn't. And I realized he was right....I needed to refocus my priorities, and just work on being healthy rather than thin. Heck, if I can do both, I'm going to shoot for it...but for now, I'm not going to stress over how to lose weight anymore. I'm just going to stick to my eating plan and my exercise, and trust that the weight will come off in its own time.

That is definitely a BIG victory. So much of this battle is mental, and if you can get yourself in the right mindset, you can't help but succeed. Good luck, and I hope your wedding is amazing

That is awesome!!!
I was stressing about weight loss way back then and I decided it didn't matter. My husband will love me no matter what, and now I just need to love me!!

Great realization!!

great mindset! i can understand the number on the scale being hard not to obsess about, but he is right, the healthier you are, the better you'll look & this day is about your happiness & that number on the scale should have nothing to do with that )
