12 Week Weight Loss Program

So, my mom is getting married in May and she has been looking for dresses for her daughters to wear. At this point, I'm the only one who still needs a dress. I have been dress shopping for her, but the dresses are too expensive, don't fit, or my mom thinks I look frumpy in them. A week ago was my mom's birthday and we were talking about what we could do about a dress for me. Then, my mom said something that completely offended me. "Maybe we should go look at Lane Bryants and try to find a dress there." With a shocked look on my face, I replied "Mom! I am not plus-size!" To make things worse, my sister Jaci piped in: "Oh, you're not plus-size? I thought you were." I was so humiliated and upset that my family actually thought this of me. Yes, I have gained a lot of weight since being with Phil- I know that too well, I have to look at myself everyday- but, I am NOT plus-size! I have only went up one pants size and my shirts still fit me, so that's not an issue. So, I stormed out crying and was miserable the whole night. The next day, I looked online for programs to help me lose weight- and I came across a free 12-week weight loss program. I am totally for it! My mom's wedding is in 10 weeks, so I think this will be a perfect program for me. Hopefully, it works out! My goal is to lose 20 lbs. Wish me luck! (This is the most recent picture of me that I could find. I want to go from that to how I looked a couple of years ago.)

  1. I'm sorry that happened. That's terrible! But that's cool that you found a good program. My family is doing a biggest loser competition and so I've started working out and eating healthier. It's hard to lose weight, I've decided. I hope you have success in your endeavors.
