I don't know if this counts, but I'm going to a wedding in May...

yeah sure!! i just need someone to help motivate me!!!

Sorta ... my sister is getting married in June and I'm the maid of honor. Congrats to you ... when's the big day?

I'm engaged but the wedding date isn't until mid 2007. I've lost 25 pounds so far and have about 40 to go to reach my goal of 138. My fiance has been super supportive through this whole thing.

Congratulations to you. I'm sure you will look stunning on your special day. :) Feel free to add me to your buddies list.

i already got married (37 years ago) but i'm trying to look good for my daughter's wedding in may!  might even reach my goal by then!!!  at first i was going for my august birthday, but things are going so well, hmmmmm.  just might do it!

:) I'm getting married September 30th, 2005 - and I needed to lose 26 lbs.  I've lost 11 so far, with 15 to go by the time my dress needs to be altered.  I hope you have your dress already, and get it altered alter, don't wait till the last minute to get one in your size.

Best of luck with planning.  My honey and I have argued over wedding stuff more than anything else in the 2.5 years we've been together.

I'm getting married in November this year, and I have about 23 pounds to go :)  I'm pretty much halfway to my goal.

thanks guys for all the support!! well my wedding is june 10th but im hoping to lose the weight for my dress fitting in mid-may (i know its kind of a late start!!)....im doing yoga booty ballet everyday and i love doing it, so hopefully that will keep me somewhat motivated, and i think keeping a log of my food everyday will help me cut back the snacking and the "eating cause im bored" (anyone else have that problem??) ok...well im bout to do my video and eat some breakfast....good luck to everyone, hope you all reach your goals!

Congrats to all the brides!  And the mothers of the brides.  And the sisters of the brides!  Keep us posted on your goals!

How exciting!

I am getting married this August and I just started the healthy lifestyle again and also need motivation.  I would like to lose 50 lbs if possible by then, and that is just my mid way goal, so I wish that I had only 15 lbs to lose, although I know that those last 15lbs are the hardest.  People think that getting married should be all the motivation we need, but for some reason it doesn't really help.  I feel that I want to look good for myself (and my new hubbie) on that day but it is soooo hard when planning the wedding and I find myself more stressed out !!! Arghh, hopefully you know what I mean Kristin.  So lets help eachother out, and try to think of what we COULD look like in our wedding dress.

hey, I;m getting married in about 1 1/2 years and need to loose about 50lbs I could really use a buddy!

Congratulations everyone!!  I just got married in June.  I am trying to get back down to my weddeing weight.  I have gained about 8 pounds since the big day.  Its ironic...I stopped working out about 3 months before I got married because of all the stress.  I am just now really getting back into the regimine.  I know things get crazy with all the planning, showers, company coming into town.  Just exercise when you can fit it in (I think cardio is more important for loosing the pounds), and take every meal one at a time.  Eat the best you can for each meal.  There will be lots of opportunities to indulge with showers and wedding shows etc.  Don't eat if you are not hungry.  Keep some cut veggies in your bag for when you need to nibble.  Good luck.  Its amazing, the last week before your wedding...you will be so busy with stuff you will loose a few pounds without even trying.  Stay focused and may God bless your marriages!

Hi! Im getting Married June10, and that is the whole reason I joined this site. Kristin, like you I only have about 12 pounds to lose.  It gets frustrating for me, because I dont think Ive actually lost any weight, but I do notice that i am tightening up and that my jeans fit a little better. 

I dont have any buddies, and I dont mind having a few! So you can add me to your list if you'd like!

congrats to all of you!   weddings are so stressful but look at the reward in the end!   Best of luck to you all!  I will have been married 7 years come september!

Congrats to us all! I'm getting married in september....but at 42 years old, its harder and harder to lose! I want to lose 15 by then...or more! I will support anyone and would enjoy the support back!
