Default Wedding day, woo hoo!

So on July 25th this month, I got married. Seeing the photos afterward was a huge sigh of relief for me. One of my biggest fears has been of being a fat bride. It's now been five or six years since I lost 50lbs, and along the way managed another 10. Unfortunately due to all the wedding celebrations, I have a feeling I gained maybe 5 or so back.. but I have thankfully never gained back those 50lbs, and to this, I owe the Atkins diet.

So, he's a picture of me back in 2003...


Aaaand here's me, last Saturday!

Yes, total has been 60lbs. I used to be over 180 and now I'm a little over 120, so I'm saying 60 just to round it off. XD Good luck on losing the 60, it's really not as hard as it sounds if you keep that goal in sight and never give up!!
