Well, I stepped on the scale today in the first time for a while, and I weighed the most I have ever weighed in my life without being pregnant. Actually, I'm pretty darn close to my 9 months pregnancy weight, and that in itself is scary. I lost 50 pounds a couple of years ago, but then I moved to a new state to live with my boyfriend (husband now) who has entirely different eating habits than I have ever had. I gained back the 50 pounds plus an extra 20 just to really rub it in.
So today was the last straw. I just got married at this weight. Now I have plans to go to my new sister-in-law's wedding in England in August, and I refuse to look this way for another wedding.
I don't know what diet to try at this point, because I really don't like eating meat, and I love carbs so it seems Atkins is out. I tried Weight Watchers before, and that's how I lost so much, but I don't know if that is the best option again. I even tried exercising for 2 hours a day and lost not even a pound. Any advice and support is much appreciated.
By the way, I'm apparently defective. How on earth do you post those little weight tracker pictures on here? No matter which code I tried, it still showed as text. Thanks :)

Welcome to the board. I am doing low carb (see Low Carb diets for Dummies) and I am a carboholic. I love BREAD PRODUCTS. Unfortunately this is what puts the pounds on me.
Currently I am thinking about going WW. Have not made up my mind yet.
Check it out and let us know which diet you finally end up following.
