The secret to losing weight is to NOT diet. I mean it, no joke. Diets normally fail and even when they do work, they don't keep the weight off. You and your fiance need to adopt healthy eating habits for life, not just have a temporary diet. You also need to make exercising a regular thing. A site that I would definately recommend you checking out is http://www.sparkpeople.com/ It's full of information and support for being healthy and losing weight. Good luck!

Hi kylanie, When I reduced my carbs, meat and sweets intake, I noticed my waistline became smaller and I lost a few pounds. Try to eat more of vegetables and fish, avoid eating meat if possible. For your snacks, try eating oatmeal instead. You'll lose weight in a week or two. This is effective, it works for me. You're sure to be eating healthy foods too.

Hi lanie. I'm not sure what kind of exercise you are doing but I had gained a little weight also. The only thing that works for me is an exercise bike even though I have a treadmill also. I am not a very good dietor as I like to eat with my family. I am the only one who has gained weight and I just recently bought a new exercise bike to get the wieght back off. I know it will work. My old one broke a few years back and i just now replaced it a couple weeks ago.
