I am tired of being the "big girl" !

Hello Everyone! :smile:

I need a change in my life, and I plan on using this website as my first stepping stone in my journey. Now that I am getting married in December, it has become even more important to do something about my weight. I want to be proud and pretty on that day, not fat and self conscious.

I am looking forward to giving and receiving motivation and support to all you wonderful members out there.

p.s. If anyone lives near me, I am looking for an exercise partner!

    Ha ha, it is snowing as we speak! I think we are up to a 15 inch snow pack now.

    The saying around here goes like this, " In Wisconsin, there are two seasons: Winter and Road Work!"

    Good luck, You can do it!!! My wedding picture that was taken 18 years ago is my inspiration. I had this tiny little waist!! I had two kids, got divorced, got married and just had another child three years ago when I was 37 years old. The best advice I can give you is to learn the good eating habits now, drop that 80 lbs and don't ever let it come back. I have 80 to lose too. I started a week ago and have already lost 5lbs. You can do it!!!!

    Your wedding is on its way...jsut as a word from the experienced...If you struggle with your weight it only gets harder after you get married..and even worse when you have a baby..It is best to find a healthy way of living before you get yourself into that situation...I wore a 12.. on a 5'8 " muscular build..170-80 pounds..very lean....now I am in a size 28...308 pounds...do it while you can..It is hard but very important
