Worth a try!!

[MrsFullerton_to-be]

Well not sure how good i am gonna be at this...so wish my luck. I have 2 kids getting married this year as well as my own wedding in December so seriously need to shed some pounds. Dont want to wobble like a jelly in my wedding dress
I am going to start this on Friday as i have 4 days off and know it will be easier to snack on the right things at home than to be at work wanting to eat the food they are serving, just until i get used to it

Good luck to both of you and I'm sure you will all look and feel great on your Big Days.

I've not long started, just 11 days, 4lbs off, but seem to have stuck a little on the scales. Looking at other posts it doesn't seem that unusual for this to happen, so I guess I will persevere.

Re: Worth a try!!

congrats to both Mrs F and Stacy! You are exactly where you need to be right now to achieve your goals. I'm glad you have each other for support, that will be extremely helpful during your journey.

some advise to you -- if you don't have the DANDR book go to Amazon and purchase a low cost copy of it. I paid less than $5.00 including shipping for mine!! Read the book and keep it with you.

Join exercise challenges. It will help you loose faster and keep yourself motivated to have a place where you have to be accountable. None of the challenges cost anything, you can do push-ups, walk, squat, etc. Then there are challenges for being cheat free, drinking water, not getting on the scale for "X" number of days -- there are a lot of challenges here!

Stock up on good foods - don't forget to get plenty of fat into your diet -- that keeps your body functioning normally. Eat full fat, eat whole eggs, meat is your friend .... forget everything you've ever done on a diet before, because this works and it's mostly the opposite of what you've ever been told or learned.

Ask questions -- post often, get involved -the more you use this forum the more you'll get out of it.

Good luck -- I'll watch for your progress!!
