Wedding Weight Loss Challenge


Quote  |  Reply

I am getting married August 30th 2008, and I would like to lose about 40 pounds before than. I just had a baby 2 months ago and still have about 40 pounds baby weight to lose. Is there anyone else who would like to join me on this challenge? We can weigh in every Monday untill August or untill we reach out goal weight. Everyone can just reply to this and post their starting weight. I will make a chart with everyones name and weight and will keep track of it every week as we all weigh in. Thanks and good luck to anyone who joins. We can do this. Have a great Day.

Can I still join?  No date yet, but likely mid-summer (small wedding).  Weigh-ins on Mondays will help keep me on track over the weekend.

One pound is a great weight loss!!  You didn't put the weight on over night and it won't come off over night... Persistance will pay off! :)  Great job this week, CONGRATS!

I was down to 175. Hopefully I can keep it off, lots of business dinners this week :)

Alright weigh in Monday Jan. 28th 165.

The wedding has been called off and since I was also dumped and found out he had been cheating with a friend of mine, I feel really proud that I didn't eat it all back on. But you know what, I am going to loose it all and then he will know he didn't break my heart!

Today's weigh-in....170.3!  Yay!  15 more to go!

 

btw, went dress shopping this weekend.  Normally I wear a size 10-12.  They were sizing me as a 14 for my dress!!!  I nearly fainted as I thought I lost all my progress, but today I saw that I lost a pound.  Anyone else experience this??
