This is a great answer...thank you for all of the details. :smile:

Wow...you've lost 31 pounds since May?! That is ahhhmazing! I took a peak at your diary and I can see why you've been so successful. Good for you. :)

Thanks for the friendly reminder! :)

Wow...your monthly food post is freakin' awesome! Where are you from? I ask because some of your meals don't seem like the typical American food. I say that mainly because of the herring for breakfast...which is brilliant by the way. :smile:

This is a great website! Thank you so much. I plan to spend some time with this over the weekend and try to apply it. Thanks again.

Thank you so much for sharing this video. It made me tear up...:blush:

That's the problem...I don't know how to love myself. I don't even know what it means to love myself. I've gotten professional help numerous times throughout my life--trust me I've tried so very hard to fix this problem. I don't think I'll ever be able to fully heal from the wounds of my childhood. I don't know how to love…

This is good stuff...I'll definitely give it a try. Thank you! :smile:

We just got engaged last week. No date has been set...but we're thinking March or April of 2017. Not sure where the dress buying/fitting will fall on the timeline.

All of this is just AWESOME...and helps me look at things from a whole different perspective. Thank you for this post. :smile:

I totally agree...the first 35 years have already been pretty miserable, no need to add anymore years to the tally. Sigh. You suggest working on my self-esteem before working on my weight loss. Do you think working out and eating right would hinder my ability to work on my self-esteem? I would think that eating right and…

Is this really possible? Any tips on how to go about doing this? Books or websites that can guide me? I would love to TRULY believe that I am beautiful and worthwhile...that would be so amazing! :)

No flames at all...:) I love your post and totally agree with you. That's why I made it clear at the bottom of my post that I'm not doing this for the wedding...I'm doing it for myself. That's because I recognize that my issue with looking "fat" at my wedding has nothing to do with the wedding and everything to do with me…

I agree. He already loves me the way I am today. It's more about how I feel about myself. P.S. I hope you didn't get soap in your eyes! ;)

Important to you.

We've already gone ring shopping and I'm pretty sure he already bought the engagement ring, so it can happen at any moment.

Oh wow! Congrats! :)

Thanks for this...and I totally agree. I know he loves me for who I am and that my weight has no bearing on his love for me. I just want to feel like I'm at my best because I truly feel that he deserves it. We both deserve it.

Nope...no photographers involved (at least not that I know of). Just the two of us and the ring.

This answer made me smile! Thank you. :)

Both...but mainly the former. You're totally right, though. Just having someone propose would be amazing.

Oh...I like this one!!! Great Hack. Yes...more suggestions like this please!!!

Day 28 Down 6.2 pounds...my body sucks. :(
