Hello there,

I'm new around here, and I joined because I want to look the best I ever have for my wedding day in 2 years. I can't even think about trying on dresses right now because I'm so disgusted with myself and how I look. I have ballooned terribly since puberty. I thought I was horrible in high school, but now I'm 70lbs more than I was even then. I want to be able to wear adorable sun dresses in the summer, and I want people to look at my goofy, geeky husband-to-be and wonder how he landed such a hottie hahaha.

My biggest struggle will be the fact that I know he will find me attractive no matter how gross I think I am. He tells me daily how sexy and beautiful he thinks I am. I think I use that to justify the endless fast food and lack of exercise. Honestly, at the end of the day, I want to be the sexiest I can be for myself, not for anyone else. But it would be a wonderful plus to be able to be his trophy wife :)

    Good for you! It wasn't until we set our wedding date that I got serious about losing weight as well. I like my fitness pal bacause I can use it all work week and then have a cheat day once a week where we can just go on dates and not worry about dieting. It's working so far but I know the more weight I lose the harder it will come off! But at least I feel like I can live and not just "be on a diet". Two years is PLENTY of time for you as well. I don't know if you've seen it, but I sometimes watch a show on MTV "I used to be fat". Some of those kids lose 100 pounds in 3 months!!! (I know we can't dedicate our entire day to working out, but it's still motivating :) I'm excited for you- I also want to look awesome on my wedding day- hopefully we can cheer each other on! Cheers!

    Oh man, that show makes me bawl every time I watch it!!! I wish I could afford a personal trainer, even just for a month so I could get started with someone to be accountable to. I'm thinking I might just spring for it. After all, it's not like it's some worthless item I'm spending money on, right?
