Dieting...ugh

I wanna loose like 50 lbs before my wedding (I've really packed them on since FH and I started dating) and started this week.
I have had luck with Slim Fast in the past so thats what I am doing and exercising. I ran 2 miles Monday and Tuesday morning, and took a 2 hour ballet class last night (and plan on running tomorrow morning too).
Just now, one of my officemates (who weighs like 2 lbs) comes in with McDonalds all like 'oh do you want some fries?' Ugh i wanna kill her. They smell so good!!! I have to be good!

We should! Although FH is trying to loose too, so he helps motivate me at home and we've stopped buying snacks when we go food shopping.

see, snacks are not always bad... it just depends on what kind of snacks they are. snacks are helpful...they make you not eat as much during meals and they actually can speed up your metabolism. just dont make the snack a twinkie. lol.

i usually eat 2 small meals, 1 decent sized meal, and 2 snacks. during the day, and it keeps me from overeating. i feel like that could be why ive lost weight without exercising.

I should have said no bad snacks. We cut out the cookies and chips and bought Italian ices (fat free), yogurt, fruit and rice cakes.

GOOD FOR YOU!!!!

weight watchers is the best! i lost 70lbs in a year!

Yea I did WW too and I highly recommend it as well. I lost 20lbs a little over 2 years ago. Ive gained about 6 of it back and I want to loose that plus more.

Ugh..I have a joke with my priest that I'm going to be the only bride-to-be who will want to GAIN weight before my wedding!!!

Seriously, between the cancer/chemo I've lost over 34 pounds since July and they say I'll probably keep losing weight until my treatment is over

But if you really want to lose weight, do what I did about 2 years ago: Rent 'Supersize' me...It turned me into a vegetarian. I didn't necessarily lose weight because I was still working out, but I lost inches and had TONS of energy!

Good luck!

good luck, you can do it! I'm trying too but cocktails are killin me
