I'm a middle school teacher who is newly married and looking to lose weight I've gained since meeting and falling head over heels in love with my now husband! When we met in May of 2012 when I had lost 40 lbs and just finished my first long distance race which was the Cooper River Bridge Run (6.2 miles). Oh, I was definitely proud of myself and working out like a gym rat! Then I met the man of my dreams, not that I blame him :) but my time was filled up with lots of other things! Falling in love makes you blind for sure: blind to what you eat, drink, look like, and easily forget the gym! I'm on a mission to get my body back! I would just like to have some people who know where I'm coming from and help me be accountable for my weight loss and getting back to a healthier me!

    Hey I am a newlywed as well!
    I think we are in the same boat and think we could be great motivators!

    My wife and I just passed our 1 year anniversary. The first year is a lot of fun. All 3 days of the second year have been just as great! And she's actually helpful with healthy meals and regular encouragement. Best luck with your goals!
