Also, don't skip a single workout. i know you are probably crazy busy, but even 20 minutes every morning could make a difference! <BR/><BR/>And know that no matter what you are going to look gorgeous.RhodeyGirl/Sabrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051101402251922117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7839716249093005933.post-86494981515422061362009-03-16T05:12:00.000-07:002009-03-16T05:12:00.000-07:00I would shoot for 1-2lbs per week.

Just know that if you are stressed with work/wedding planning you won't lose the weight as fast. <BR/><BR/>I had lofty goals for losing weight on my day but didn't achieve them b/c I was stressed to the MAX - jobless, living situation was horrendous, planning for the wedding - ugh! combination of factors - plus all my friends wanted to celebrate, so we kept celebrating for months leading up to the wedding! <BR/><BR/>I would def make sure you get 8-9hrs of sleep DAILY. I read a study somewhere that showed women who were getting 6-7 hrs of sleep, increased their sleep to 8-9hrs and lost 5lbs w/o even trying - one girl lost 15 lbs and didnt change a single thing about her eating habits or exercise!!! <BR/><BR/>sleep is mucho important! hope this helps! that being said, I think you can totally make your goal!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7839716249093005933.post-45811852526062632552009-03-15T08:55:00.000-07:002009-03-15T08:55:00.000-07:00Aw thanks girls!

When I first started losing weight and exercising more, food blogs totally helped me. I saw people eating real food and living life yet still maintaining a healthy lifestyle. My advice is to look to them for some support and motivation. I can point you towards some really great food blogs if you want. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7839716249093005933.post-58665789226488229642009-03-14T20:46:00.000-07:002009-03-14T20:46:00.000-07:00Yes, you can!

Just take things one day at a time and eat your best and workout. Sometimes we can lose sizes and inches without losing actual weight in pounds. You also have to stop being so hard on yourself and believe you can do it, that is the biggest thing. I finally lost weight because I finally got the mental part right. <BR/><BR/>How many calories a day do you eat? Sometimes we can eat too little and that leads to no loss or even sometimes weight gain. For weight loss, I usually try to eat my body weight x 10 (so if I'm 150 that's 1500 calories a day), and for maintenance, my body weight x 13.<BR/><BR/>Good luck, we're here for you! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
