*waves* Hi....I'm so nervous about this!!

I'm 25 years old, and engaged to be married in July 2013. I've always wanted to lose weight because I always thought I looked terrible. . But now that I've finally learned to accept myself for who I am, I think I am prepared to lose weight for a number of reasons without sabotaging myself, mainly to

- be healthier
- look gorgeous on my wedding day
- be able to wear nice clothes
- feel more energetic so I can do more fun stuff like cycling and hiking

I want to lose about 60lbs....I've never lost weight in a healthy way before, so it's going to be quite hard.
I just hope I can keep those 4 goals in mind to keep me motivated.

Wish me luck :)
