24 year old, bride to be!

Hi!

I was on weight watchers in college and lost 40 some pounds. Left college, joined the stressful adult life of trying to find a job, moving out, etc, gained it all back and some! Now I am finally in a stable everything- career (I'm a teacher), home (we own our home), and relationship (getting married in March). Time to start a new health style too!

Usually when I get home, I just sit. I make supper. I sit some more. I watch tv with the hubby and don't do much of anything. No more!

I have a couple of goals this week- be more active, drink more water, and stay off facebook and pinterist! Ha!

  • Hello! When are you getting married? My big day is April 12th next year and I'm on MFP to lose atleast 14lbs before my first dress fitting in early March.
    5lbs down already so I feel like I can do it!! Add me if you want a fellow Bride to Be for moral support! Word of warning though, I will message you if you stop logging on ;o)
  • Welcome :smile: you will indeed replace your facebook addiction with MFP addiction, haha I certainly have.

    I'm 24 and got married last March and losing weight for it was difficult and unfortunately I got married at a size 22 :sad: however my husband said he didn't care he was with me for me not my size (which is a bloody good job lol)

    I lost 56lbs on here back in 2010 however that creeped back on in 2011 to early 2012 and now i'm losing again. 16lbs down so far so hopefully it keeps going in the right direction.

    Feel free to add me on here I always welcome new MFP friends to help along their weightloss journey and vice versa. Hope to see you around :happy:
