It's silly, I know :p But there will be a lot of pictures that day. I'd love to not only look good, but feel great, too! God willing, I hopefully passed my exams yesterday, two more classes to wrap up and I'm walking!

Three years of grad school as a single mom while working full-time as a special education teacher has done a number on my weight. The number is about 30 lbs. I need to lose about 50 lbs, and while I know I probably can't get there by May, I hope to be on my way. I'd love some friends for the journey if you'd like to add me. :)

    On average, 50 pounds wil take 50 weeks give or take. But the good news is you could be down by 10 pounds by May.

    My helpful advice is to buy a dress that you can rock! And congrats!

    Hey, I am also graduating in April after a 4year bachelor course. I am a mother of 3 children so definitely understand the struggle and the hard work and committment to finish the course. Well done. You should definitely be proud of your achievements. My upcoming graduation has also encouraged me to lose some weight as I want to look back at the pictures with happiness and not dreading how I look.

    I am sure you will look amazing on your graduation day. Hold your head up high and own it girl. You just achieved something really remarkable.

    Please add me if you wish.
