I have a total of 50 lbs to lose to be at a healthy weight ( according to my doctor.) I want to lose 30 by June of 2015 for my wedding. Any other brides to be here?

    Hi. :) My wedding is an year away. And I have 34 pounds to lose. But looking at your pic, you look in quite good shape. Are you sure about those 30-50 pounds?
    Feel free to add me by the way. :)

    Doctors are silly, sometimes. If s/he is basing that purely on the BMI scale, then you may not have to lose 50 pounds. What you may have to do is focus on reducing body fat % and increasing lean mass. You won't lose much on the scale, but your body will look and feel completely different.

    Do you plan to keep up with fitness after the wedding?

    I actually weigh 180 in the picture (I'm 186 now) and I'm 5'6''. I'm not sure of my body fat %, but I know I want to be at about 30%. I do want to keep up the plan after the wedding :) I have a 6 month old son and I want to be able to keep up with him when he starts walking around :)
