I just tried my old login. wasnt sure if it would work, but to my shock and awe it does. Lol goes to show you your always welcome back (hopefully ?)

So yeah, i was on medifast up until about a year ago, went on a trip with my boyfriend for a week and a half and magically couldnt keep myself on track. I "thought" i would be fine but over that year roughly 20 or so lbs creeped right back. im 200.6 as of this morning. granted its not as high as i was when i had first started but not good.

Things have been great with me and robert (the boy) and i kept telling myself, eh i'll finish losing once we plan to get married.......


he proposed in may and ive got six months til the wedding as of next saturday.... needless to say i need to put my money where my mouth is....or rather medifast where my mouth is...

so my friends...the time is now...

and now im back for realsies... i dont care if it rains on my wedding day... just as long as i dont have a double chin in the pics

Welcome back and that's a great goal! I used to always accuse my husband of being a terrible photographer because he always made me "seem" like I had a double chin! Talk about denial!

[DntCryLilEmoGrl]

lol i know what you mean. i thought robert was taking terrible pics of me...nope... *sigh* i hated the pics from our engagement party...they are in our wedding scrapbook we are going to have out at the wedding... but then it will give our guests something to see how much better i look on that day...hehe


thanks for the warm welcome! Im excited about restarting

i already ordered my gown but i dont care if i have to spend a bunch in alterations... my aunt may be doing them so i may not have to lol

I got a dress made in Hong Kong in March perfectly tailored to my figure. Of course that was about 50 pounds ago and I knew I would have it cut down to my size when I reached goal but I didn't mind. I hope it isn't too much longer before it happens!

[DntCryLilEmoGrl]

well it looks like you are very close to goal. congrats for that by the way. you are getting married as well? when is the big day?

[bikipatra]

Oh, no. I'm an old married woman. It was 5 years in June.

[DntCryLilEmoGrl]

oh hehe, and thats not qualifying as an old married woman . just a married woman. congrats on 5 years btw.

i joined the bride community on extra pounds but i see people going for like 5 lbs haha... depressing... but at least im getting back to medifast. me and robert figured that we should be able to afford it and keep saving for the wedding. Honestly im so happy he is such a supportive guy, i couldnt get back on this (or deal with any of the wedding stuff) without him.

when i first started looking at wedding stuff my first though was maybe we should wait til april 09 not 08...or elope lol.

the last 10 lbs i packed on has all been after the engagement too lol eeeek

[bikipatra]

He sounds like a great guy! My husband just sometmes doesn't know how to be supportive.

[DntCryLilEmoGrl]

ah well robert is far from perfect but for the most part he is a good guy. but sometimes his reasons for certain things drive me nuts

for example... he hasnt ever bought me flowers...because they die...

id settle for just one potted plant lol
