I've never been one to talk about my weight. Its something I'm very shy about even though it is very obvious. Its also very obvious that I've gained about 30lbs in the last year...thats horrible and I can't believe I just admitted that. But I'm getting married in August 2009 to a man that will love me no matter what size I am and as grateful for that as I am I would still like to lose the weight so I can feel better about myself and feel good on our wedding day. I don't want to look back at our wedding pics and be like "ugh, I looked disgusting" I want to look and FEEL great!

I'm also a maid of honor in my best friends wedding in June. She's someone who has never had a problem losing weight. She's always able to take it right off. I'm super jealous of that and that makes it very hard for me to talk to her about my weight even tho she is my best friend. I would also like to not look horrible in her pictures too!

 My fiance is someone who eats what they want and has a very large sweet tooth! But he also works on cars. Pushing them and lifting heavy parts all day..he can work this off. For the last year I've had an office job so I SAT all day. Now I have a different job where I'm in a different location each day. I have appointments set up and I might have a few in the morning and then a break and then a few in the afternoon. I feel that this might be helpful to me because I'll be able to do some exercising in between. Whether thats to go for a walk or go to the gym (which I do plan on getting a membership to soon)

 So these are my goals for wanting to lose weight....

Feel better about myself
