I'm in...let's do it...whatever it takes. I often feel like I am destined to be this way but I hate it. I have been telling myself all along that I have time to lose weight before I go gown shopping but guess what, time has run out!

I joined curves about 3 weeks ago and I am thinking of going back on WW.

WHAT CAN WE DO??

You have lots of time. Look, I started Weight Watchers last July and I lost 27 lbs. I just have 9 more to go. It's been slow becuase I haven't excercised at all, but I eat much healthier now. I've done it, even with a FH that was not dieting along with me. You just have to set some goals and have some will power. Once you start losing, it really does get easier because you are seeing results and you become motivated. Feel free to FM. Good luck!

Well, i started WW again....this will be my 3rd week. (and unfortunately not going well). Every week I loose I think i'm gonna post it...just as added encouragment....
I think there should be a BWL board..'Brides Weight Loss' board!!!! I love my dress...but i am 1 seiz too big (i mean it comes in my size..but i have to pay extra!!! - thats crazy, they are expensive enough)

Goal #1. Drop 1 size before I want to order (thats begining of June......) ABSOLUTELY doable/realistic!!!!!!

Definitely doable and realistic!! I am in my cousins wedding in May. I ordered the dress 2 months ago and my boobs were too big! I had to lose like 2 inches of boob...I think I have...curves has helped with that, but now that I have been excersizing I think if I joined WW again I could really see a difference...which I want before I order my wedding gown. It is just that will-power thing that always gets to me. Bad habits die hard and in my case don't die at all

There's actually a 'Slim Down' on the NWR Boards. You should check it out.
But hey, we can start our own group here. I still have 9 lbs. left. You can so do it. First, get rid of all the fattening foods in your house, then go buys lots of snacks that are 3 points or less. The key is to eat when you know you are going to get hungry instead of when you are starving, because then you will eat everything. Also, I eat less meat portions and try to eat more veggie portions as those are 0 points and help you digest faster. Ex.) Breakfast= 1 cup berries, small lowfat yogurt; Lunch= Ham & Cheese on light bread with pickles, lettuce, spinach (anything with 0 points to make the sandwich more filling), side of pepper strips or cucumbers; Dinner=4-5 oz. Chicken, 1 cup spinach, 1 cup green beans, Snack= Hot tea, 7 Reduced Fat Triskets It's actually amazing how much you can eat for the 20 points and now with 35 Flex points each week you can be bad without being bad.

Good for you! I have been so diligent with the gym... I go on my lunch hour and I have only missed 1 day in 3-1/2 weeks. I know WW like the back of my hand but I might have to rejoin...there is something about going and gettng weighed everyweek that helps me stick to it. I think I will join friday. Enough is enough right??

I have never tried WW.I think you have to just realize one day. I want to do this, and do it for yourself, not because you are getting married, or need to fit into a dress, or anything else. Remember your FI fell in love with you just the way you are.
I started going to the gym over three years ago, and try to go pretty regularly. Over time, it becomes a habit. If only chocoloate wasn't the enemy

Lynn, you can do it! And if it will help you stay on track, post your progress!! We are here for you.

Cindy, that is amazing that you have lost 27 pounds! I am so happy for you. My sister is on WW and has lost almost 40 pounds!!

Both of you can do it and we will be here to support you and cheer you on.

I'm on WW too!
I'd love to have some weight loss buddies as well. If you two don't mind.

OF COURSE!!!! WEIGHTLOSS HERE WE COME!

Well, I'm home sick with the flu, so I won't be hitting the gym anytime soon. If you girls are eating right and working out, you'll def. loose the weight and define your body at the same time. I just did the diet part and now the last 9 won't come off so I need to hit the gym to define. Thanks everyone for the congrats. I'm very happy with what I've done so far and I know I can take the rest off..... especially with all your support.
