Hello! I have been lurking for a long time and finally I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Sam and I got engaged in the beginning of january and I am getting married this august.
I actually started my weight loss journey waaaay before I got engaged. I hit what I guess you could say was "rock bottom" last june 3 weeks before I was a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding. I went to try on my dress and it didn't fit. Then I got on the scale the same day and was shocked with the number on the scale. From that day, I started drinking lots of water, cut out sugars and ate only lean meats, fruits and veggies. I lost enough weight before my friends wedding and I fit in the dress...luckily.
I didn't stop from there and just kept going. I added in running and walking about 2 months later..
I am now officially down 59lbs! I still have maybe 10-15 lbs to go and I will hopefully be satisfied...but I would also like to be a little more toned... the process of losing weight sucks but its really worth it when people notice.
Thought I would share my story with all of you!
