We make this all the time, it's so good!!

It's so interesting how much all of our goals vary!! I used to be 170 lbs... and I LOVED the way I looked. So that's my ultimate goal, at 170, I was a size 10 and was physically fit.

Thanks for all the advice!! For those who asked- I've been consistently working out, and eating healthy for around a month now. I've lost 2 lbs, and 3.5 inches. I'm starting to notice little changes, but I guess I'm looking to the scale for encouragement. Lastly, what does OP mean?? Do I want to know? lol
-
I just invested in a food scale!! It should be interesting to see what it says (eek!!) Thank you both!
-
Take it easy. I just started this journey in the middle of January. I haven't always eaten healthy, and like everyone else, I wasn't getting as much exercise as I should've been. But that's the past, I'm looking towards the future...

I will certainly try counting calories. We all have the same goal... let's not throw stones at each others naivety. As I stated I'm new to the site, and over time I too will learn to "actually use the site". Thank you all for the input, hopefully results are right around the corner!!

I just restarted in the middle of January- haha not from the previous September! :) As for inches, I've lost 3 off my waist, and 1 off my hips and thighs... I'm really new to this, so I apologize if I don't know the "norms" for weight loss.
-
If I made an educated guess, I'd say I eat approx.1300 calories a day. Is there such thing as an average calorie goal for generic weight loss? I guess I will have to start counting, and see what happens. Thanks all, any other advice is welcomed!
-
I may be clueless because I don't count calories, but I believe it IS still possible without doing so. My portions aren't big, and my exercise is consistent...Perhaps I'm looking for advice about exercise more so than food intake.
-
I don't count calories (sorry! My view is that if it's all good for you, as long as the portions aren't huge-- its generally okay) I'm 24, 5'8 and 225.

I had the same question!! I went in for my first fitting today and got a few answers. On top, I'm doing a corset to support "the girls" And then on bottom, since I have a ballgown I have a poofy slip lol but I guess there can be an element of intrigue of whats under the slip!! Best of luck!!
-
I just joined too! Who doesn't love support and motivation from people in the same boat?? :)

Hey girl! I'm getting married in May, so I'm a few months ahead of you. The rule at David's Bridal was 40 lbs, or 2 dress sizes. Then when you do your fitting, they'll take what your measurements are at that time, and alter as needed. Congrats on your upcoming wedding, it's exciting, isn't it?! :)
