Hey all :)

I've just begun my loooong journey of trying to lose 100 pounds before my wedding next summer and I'm looking for a few supportive, motivated friends that actually interact and daily log the good, the bad, and the ugly.

I'm 25 years old living in Washington, south of Seattle, have been engaged for 4 YEARS and am finally getting married next summer!! I'm 5'4 and my starting weight was 261. My overall goal weight is anywhere from 130-150, but I'm hoping to be under 160 by the time I get married in August.

I would love to support any and all, and if we can really relate to each other on a personal level, that's even better! I was diagnosed with PCOS about 4 years ago and am on Metformin. After tackling my weight, my plan is to start TTC for my first baby, so that's another journey I'll be going on hopefully sooner than later and would love any and all the support I can get, as well as friends to support going through the same thing.

If you could leave a short message with your add that would be awesome! I'd really like to get to know who you are and why you're here. :) Best of luck to everyone! :drinker:

    I'm sending you a friend request, becaue I know how important this is to you and I can't wait to see pics of you rocking that beautiful Wedding Dress. Let's get that weight off together. I feel motivated already. You've got this in the bag. Just remember small goals don't look to hard at the big pic and before you know it one small after another you are done.:drinker: That's water on those cups by the way:wink: By the way just read your post again and notice you are getting married in August, well that's funny, because I got married on August 26th(14 years ago) and that will give us somethign in common. Good luck.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
