    I want to lose 70 lbs. Been having this account for like 2 months but have not been as motivated as I am now.

    I think my not having a job and school loans needing to be repaid and taking care of a toddler was taking a toll on me that I didnt care about my self esteem or my apperance, but now thats all got to change.

    We can keep each other motivated as I am planning my wedding for March 13, 2012.

    I'm looking to lose at least 50 this year aswell, I had hoped more like 100 but :\ Heck these people on that tv show can lose 200+ in a year XD But not everyone has the luxury of a personal trainer and all that free exercise equipment :( It doesn't feel like a normal person could ever do it that extreme but I do watch it for inspiration and motivation.

    Good luck to all you ladies with your wedding weight loss goals :D Or even if you're not losing it for a wedding :P Feel free to add me as a friend also if you like :)
