Hi Brittany,
I don't usually post on here but really wanted to reply to you... I was about your weight and definitely your size 2 years ago. I have lost 65 lbs to date and now am wearing a size 8. I didn't know about this site then, I'm mainly using it now to lose just a few more and keep it off for good. You absolutely CAN do this. For the most part, I just make sure I eat 3 healthy meals and I exercise about 5 days a week. Honestly I have lost it very slowly 2 or 3 a month but the ride down was so fun. And, I figure when you lose it slowly, you develop long term good habits.
I just wanted to write to give you encouragement. My friend told me yesterday I don't even look like the same person. That's going to happen to you too. Whatever you do, if you make a mistake, don't beat yourself up, go right back the next day and I promise, with perseverance, you are going to be a size or even smaller on your wedding day. Just don't buy your dress too soon.... Happy weight loss to you.
