    welcome!

    congrats on your engagement!! Exercise and watching your calorie intake is the best way. Portion size is key and sticking to healthier food.

    Good luck to you getting to your goal weight :smile:

    Welcome to MFP! I think the support network on here is a great tool for weightloss! Doing it alone can be one of the toughest things.

    I am also recently engaged and trying to lose weight for my wedding! You can add me if you'd like :)

    Hi! Congrats on your engagement and welcome to MFP! I have also just recently joined and am aiming for around the same weight loss as you. I am hoping to lose 24lb before my wedding in October 2012. I am also hoping to change my lifestyle but I'm taking it one day at a time :) Good luck to you xx
  • Just think of the wedding dress. Take a picture now in one at the store. Just the THOUGHT of seeing me like that in my wedding pictures for the rest of my life got me in GEAR!
