Hello all. My name is Brad. I'm 25, and have been "chunky" for the better part of my life. I am 5'8 and 264lbs. I wear waist size 42-44 and I am so tired of it. I would love to be back down to a 36" waist before October. I am marrying the love of my life on Halloween, and I want to be as slim as possible. I do not desire to be a twig...ever, but I would love to be a healthy 190-200lbs. I know that may not be healthy to many, but thats where I am most comfortable! I will be lurking for a while! See ya around!
Tired of the same me

No, Wedding isn't themed...Thank god. No costumes or any of that sort! I haven't really started any exercise or anything, just been doing portion control. Today is day 1, 263.6lbs. I have eaten half of what I would have normally. I feel hungry, but I think it is my brain just wanting me to not be bored....

welcome to the forum! there's lots of useful info in the stickies and lots of encouraging people. i think the important part is to make weight loss a life goal so that if you start eating healthy and exercising now, then by the time your wedding comes around you'll have lost x pounds, but will still be continuing on your health journey. i think what usually happens (at least in my case) is that every time i've set a certain date to have lost a certain amount of weight by, the opposite usually happens, i end up gaining even more! But the most important step is that you've started on the journey....all the best
