Hi All! Congrnatulations to each and every one of you!

I'm Jessica and am getting married to my best friend and love of 7.5 years on October 7, 2014, 2 days after my 25th birthday and 3 days after our 8 year anniversary. We're 'eloping' (although everyone knows) just the two of us on the beach in Florida.
We've been engaged since September 1, 2013. Originally we were going to have a large eloborate wedding, but feuding families, small budgets and increased amounts of stress and anxiety made this 'elopement' the perfect option for us. I couldn't be happier or more excited to marry my best friend and start the next step in our lives together.
As for MFP... I joined under a different user name in 2012 and dropped close to 50 lbs on the ketogenic diet while I was in school. After school, life got in the way and I very sadly gained back 30 of those pounds. I have been disappointed in myself and beating myself up for almost two years since gaining it back because I KNOW that i can lose the weight. I currently weigh around 210 (fluctuates daily) and I've been working out at the gym four days (or more) a week plus counting my calories and being conscious of what I eat... not that it seems to be helping.
I do not have a 'goal weight' persay, I just want to feel comfortable with my body. My dress is tea length and strapless and STUNNING, I want to look beautiful in it... and in the beachy clothes I plan to be wearing leading up to and following our wedding. I've got to get rid of this BELLY of mine. I swear that's where all my weight has gone, I have an epic beer belly.
Anyways, I'm just grinding away, day to day, trying to lose this weight again.
I would love some more friends who are taking part in this journey!

Hi I'm Maritza! I've been engaged since May 2013 and I'm getting married on December 14, 2014!

I'm 5"3 and currently 156 lb and am looking to lose 15-20 lbs before December which gives me a little under 4 /12 months to go!
