Bride-To-Be Needs Motivation

Hi :) I'm getting married next June (2015) and need to lose BIG weight in that timeframe- like 140lbs worth. I KNOW. I'm a fatass. BUT I'm working hard to change.

I am somewhat obsessive about my calories now, and I almost need other obsessive people who I can interact with to stay motivated. I also need nonjudgmental people. I am Dr-approved to eat only 1000 cals/day and I eat tons of protein and take vitamins. So I really don't care for any lectures that I'm eating too low. It will work, and that's all I care about.

A little about me: I'm 31 yrs old, work FT, FT grad-student, am engaged and volunteer.

Would really appreciate the support AND interaction-- Thanks!!! :)

    You can add me if you want. I've started with 120 to lose, now have about 70 to go.

    Awesome inspiration! I just updated my ticker and am actually showing 159 lbs/go, but really I would be happy with 140. It's a more realistic goal for my body. I just can't figure out how to change my goal weight! Oh, well! :) Added you!!!!
