Motivation 200 + weight loss buddies Dec 11 2008

Thanks for the advice Penny.  I actually already bought my dress and it was a 20 I haven't gotten it here yet since I ordered the dress when I was with my mom so it should fit I just hope that I will be able to take it in a size or 2 before the big day.

As for logging my calories it seems so hard b/c not everything is on there and when i have stuff that i make from scratch its hard to determine exactly what the calories are so it makes things frustrating to me.  I've been exercising I usually walk 2 miles in the morning before I head to work and then if I'm not busy there I walk another mile or 2 at work.  I guess my big thing is to just eat less which is both my fiancee and I's problem.  We LOVE to eat which is what got us here in the first place.

Hello all, I guess I'll start with a little about myself. 

I guess I've been overweight pretty much all of my life but I didn't think it was that big of a deal when I was younger because I was always playing sports ang being active so I might have been bigger than some but I was healthy. 

I went to college and lost the freshman 15 (plus some) and I don't know how I did it.  My 2nd year I met my fiancee and well I started packing on the pounds.  We have been together almost 5 years and I think I've gained 30 or 40 (possibly more) pounds since the beginning of my 2nd year in college.

We are getting married July 11, 2009 and I want to get down to a weight where I don't hate the way I look in any pictures that show more than my face.  I'm not sure where that will put me weight wise but I'm sure I'll know it when I see it.  My ultimate goal is to get down around the 140s.  My weight as of last week was 209.4 so I've got a little ways to go. 

As for CC I've been on here since August and I was actually closer to 200 when I joined and oh guess what I gained some.  Thats what starting a new job and going back to grad school can do to you.  So I'm off on a new journey to lose all of this dreaded weight and feel good about myself for once in my life!!

Any advice that anyone has would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks for reading!! Marie
