Hi everyone,

Like most people, I've been off-and-on with weight loss for years. Now I'm in my early 30s it has started to creep way to high! I have 5 weddings to go to this year so want to make sure I look good on all the pictures!

Looking forward to checking back in regularly here :)

Anyone got a similar amount of weight to lose that would like to buddy up?
Thanks for reading!

    Awesome!! You got through the first step, which is knowing what the problem is and admitting that you need to get yourself back on track. Trust me when I say not very many people do that (or are serious about it). You have a goal to reach, and you should have a plan to get there. You have your motivation factor, which are the weddings, and that is great. Never lose sight of that, and never lose sight of your goal. The main thing for you is consistency. If you can remain consistent, even AFTER you hit your goal, I guarantee you won't have to start over. Consistency is what it's all about, and it's what keeps you healthier. You will continue to look great in bridesmaid dresses, and more dresses, and walk around with a lot more confidence.

    You can do it. I know you can. Now go out there, plan your routine, hit your goal, and strut your stuff when you go to these weddings!! ;)

    I don't have a small amount to lose (my ticker lies- I really want to lose around 70-80 lbs but prefer to do it in 20 lb increments) but my own wedding is either going to be this fall or next spring and I want to be a knockout! Sending friend requests to both of you :)

    I have 6 weddings this year, and 2 so far for next year. I'm also in the party for 2 of them. :flowerforyou: I feel your pain.
