The thing is it depends on how overweight you currently are. If you're currently overweight it's a lot easier to lose the extra lbs. if you currently weigh a normal amount for your height, but just want to lose extra it will be a lot harder (your body does not want you to be underweight so it makes it difficult to lose those last few "extra" lbs).

I lost just shy of 60 lbs in about 37 weeks - it can definitely be done! I highly recommend the LoseIt app for your phone (free!). That's what I used and it really helped me, but you have to find what works best for you. I'm a lists person and liked tracking everything I ate, my exercise, my daily weight and the weight loss in one place so I could go back and look it over all the time throughout the day.

Someone on this website actually told me about the Podcast Primal Potential. It's highly motivating on a healthy lifestyle. It helped me get back on track and dive into healthier choices to lose weight.

Exercising only does so much for me - it's great to tone up and keep healthy, but to really lose weight one must be diligent with their eating habits. I would recommend using a phone app or joining weight watchers mobile (it works quite well in my experience) to count your calories/food intake. Good luck!

My wedding is a week after your pics, and I am working on losing weight also! I feel ike 1 lb a week isn't too much to ask, it just takes dedication. As a PP did, I'm also using myfitnesspal to keep myself aware of realistically how much I'm eating. I can't afford WW so it was the next best thing for me. I'm mostly just watching what I eat and how much I eat. Working out will come a little later for me when my schedule is a little less crazy. But they say losing weight is 80% what you eat so the little things go a long way!
