Countdown:  621 days, 68 pounds.

Countdown:  628 Days, 73 Pounds

When T and I got engaged, I decided that I wanted to lose 100 pounds by our wedding day.  This is proving to be more of a challenge than I thought.  I’m living by myself, so if I cheat, no one knows.  Therefore, I’m going to lay it all on the table, or at least on the blog in this case.  Here goes:
