Just me in Chicago this summer of 2012, I weighed 305 .
I NEED HELP!! I have one year to lose weight and get healthy for my wedding. My wedding should be a big motivator for me but for the past couple years my motivation has gone down the drain and I can’t seem to find it. I want to workout but I feel lazy and I just want to snapped out of it. Since I have lost my motivation I have gained all my weight back from my previous weight-loss and now weigh more than I ever have weighed. My work has decided to do a Biggest Loser competition that starts this Monday and so I joined plus I can win $1000 dollars. I do better in losing weight when I have accountability. My fiance is gonna try to be strict with me and help me as much as he can. I also love going out to eat and that contributes to me being obese and I know its wrong but I love to eat out. That is going to stop and my fiance will make sure of that. My goal to losing weight is not only for my wedding but for my future, I want to travel and have kids one day. Being at this weight, it stops me from traveling and puts me at high risk for any pregnancies. I just want to enjoy life to the fullest but my weight is stopping me. Its nobodies fault but mine for getting this big and I admit I need help. I got Zumba and a Weight Watcher’s app on my phone to track my foods. I bought lots of fruits and vegetables to get me on my way. I decided not to get the weight-loss surgery and want to prove to myself that I don’t need it and that I can do it on my own. If you know anything that will help me please let me know. Any tips or motivation will be greatly appreciated. 
THANK YOU!
Hi there! Very inspiring that you have decided to make changes for your wedding. I too went through a phase of being unhappy with my body and I found the best way to success was to find healthy food that I enjoyed as well as exercise that I loved! I talk all about the fundamentals of weight loss on my blog and I am also a personal trainer so if you have any questions, please ask! I will be following your blog and I wish you the very best of luck!
Best of luck to you! My wife and I just started this week trying to lose weight. No fancy diets for us. Just drinking more water. Increasing our fruits and vegetables. Stop eating fast food and stop drinking sugary or diets drinks/sodas. If you need inspiration, then just look at your fiance and think of ya’lls future!
Thank you both!
I cut out sugar and added more veggies; basically I’m doing low carb. I used to do WW but I’ve had better luck with what I’m doing now.
I’m gonna cut out juice, cool aid and pop, just drink more water for now. Hopefully I dont go into shock and pass out in my first week, haha.
That’s the spirit and a great first step!
replace every drink with water. and drink a glass of water before you start eating. And if u do workouts u should do weights and then run after. weights will take the energy out of ur muslces and if u run after it will eat fat. IF you eat the right things ofc >.<
