My weight never really bothered me until i went to a bridal shower and could not believe what i saw when i saw the pictures. I couldn't believe i gained that much weight in the past few years. I tried to loose weight a few months ago but was not very successful. That's when i came across this site and hope that it will give me some encouragement. So far so good. I am 28 years old and my birthday is in August i want to loose at least 20 lbs by then.
