Back in high school at age 18, I weighed 118 pounds at a 5'4 height.
Now, 6 years later at age 24, I weigh 162 pounds at a 5'5 height. Too much fast food (VERY unhealthy diet), not nearly enough exercise (none, to be exact)
I'm getting married next April 27th and have finally told myself, 'It's time. It's time to lose the weight and keep it off.'
Yes, I'm doing this so that I can feel and look good in a wedding dress, but I'm also doing this for my long-term self. My mom is 55 and works out every day. She looks great. I'm only 24 and, quite frankly, look terrible next to her.
I want to lose 27 pounds and keep it off.
So, it's time.
Just wanted to introduce myself and perhaps get some friends
