You know how there are women who start planning their wedding at the age of five? Well, I am one of those women. Granted, the idea of a dream wedding has changed dramatically over the years as the ponies and butterflies went out of the picture, but the idea stayed pretty much the same. I would find my prince on a white horse, I would fall in love and we would get married and live happily ever after. It sounds corny and sappy, but I always wanted this, for as long as I can remember.
My prince didn’t come on a white horse, but he did drive a white Sierra when we met, so that is something. At first, it seemed we wouldn’t really click, but after a few breakups, we realized that we want to spend our lives together and there was nothing that could change our minds. We set the date, we found the perfect place by the local lake and the only problem became the wedding dress.
I always pictured what my wedding dress would look like and I managed to find one that was exactly like that. The only problem was that I had to lose about 8 pounds to get into it. I tried exercising, I went on a strict diet, but I simply couldn’t lose those last few pounds. The day was closing in and I went to my doctor to find out if there was something more that I could do.The doctor prescribed Meridia to me, a medication that was proven to be very efficient as an aid in the weight loss regimen and I started taking it. I continued to exercise and with the help of Meridia I managed to get into the wedding gown of my dreams. The dream was complete.
People who know me for a long time often ask: “Why did you do it? What made you lose so much weight?” To that, I answer only one thing: “Do you have to have a reason in order to look better?”
