Shredding for the Wedding

Hello!

I have been trying to lose weight for quite a few years...but I always end up gaining weight rather than losing it. I finally have a specific goal (my wedding a year from now) and I want to use that opportunity to push myself into a healthier lifestyle. I have some great friends who work out with me a couple times a week, and I have been tracking my calories. So far, so good! I'm in this for the long haul.

    you can do it! I am also using my beach wedding in 5 month as motivation. I have actually been stress eating though and have been gaining weight. :S

    I am in the same boat. My wedding is on November 1 and I still have 40 more pounds to go, but if I lose 30 it will be great.

    Thanks everyone! It's great to see some other people with my same motivation! I forgot to mention my goals! I WILL get down at least 50 lbs before my wedding, and 100 would be idea. (I am at 258.5 right now)...my picture is from six years ago, and I am using it as inspiration for where I want to get back to and even pass.
