    Congrats on the upcoming wedding!
    My goal is in October but for completely different reasons... either way... you are more than welcome to add me as a friend on here!

    I am currently not logging any food until I begin next week. Also, check out my blog... I'll be posting daily in there as well as recipes. But mine should be open for you to take a look at when I do start logging again!

    Your final fitting will be several weeks before the wedding, so the last few weeks should be about maintaining. This means that your goal should be September. Since that is only five months away, 64 lbs. is a very aggressive goal.

    Please make sure your health is your priority, not reaching goal weights by a specific time. Eat enough to fuel your body.

    What kind of exercise are you planning on doing?

    I realize that losing 64 lbs by my wedding date or even my final fitting would be a bit too much. I really would rather just be a good portion of the way into my weightloss and be healthy about it.

    My work out buddy and I have been walking. Treadmill is for an hour and at like a 6-7 incline with a 3-4 for speed. We have been trying to get outside more, and like once a week we add weights or abs to the work out.

    But thanks for the concern!
