And just a little update about my wedding plans..
So, we have decided NOT to have a traditional wedding. In fact, we are going to go to JAMAICA
How exciting is that? So, right now we are just looking for feedback from people who have been there to get an idea about where to stay and what to look forward to doing while we are there.
AND to top it off, we are moving our wedding up from Fall of next year to MARCH of 2009. So, I really need to get moving because on top of the wedding dress I have to fit into, I gotta look glam in a swim suit...0 -
Checking in.... where is everybody?0

accidentally posted this on the old thread.
I am definitely in on this one!
I am at last weigh in at 167, and would perfer to be to 140 by the time I get married, maybe 135.
That brings me to my latest frustration... I know you gals will sympathize with me..
Two weekends ago we went and i picked out the ring... so excited! ( we already have bought a house so im not really wonder IF, im wondering WHEN)
then the following Wednesday we had to go to the ER with stomach pains ..and we had a LOVELY stay at the hospital, and then he said that he was sorry but it took all of our money...
Disappointed am i!!! I guess it gives me more time to loose weight for the big day...but its so hard after you get all of your hopes up...and actually have SEEN the ring!
my birthday is this Monday, and thats when i was hoping to get to finally wear the ring i picked out... but i guess i need to readjust my outlook on the situation. Just frustrated and wanted to vent!!0 -
Its not about the ring.. I know you know that.. The important thing is that you two have each other.. The ring will come in time.. just be patient!! and keep up the weight loss 0

Hey missy I'm in . . . If I find out you skipped the gym your done!0

Again... where is everyone?0

Here! I'm here! Been in CA for a week with occasional internet access (for work; not for vacation, unfortunately) and I'll be here another week. But I will log into MFP from time to time!
Just got my dress a week ago and haven't tried it on in a year and it fits!
Hope everyone's doing well!0 -

Ok. I'm in. My wedding is in 21 weeks!....
Do any of you watch that show "Bulging Bride" ?
I haven't seen one truly unfit person (other than needing some toning) on that show... but it has motivated me to get on the ball!
It's mostly about inches! and i'm ready to let go
count me in!!! i'm ready for the challenge
p.s. to all those destination brides-- You're soooooooooooooooooo smart!!! (don't fall over if you ask..and i tell you how much my wedding is costing.. *sigh*. LOL 200 guests later i am thinking we should have done our original destination idea and threw all tradition to the wind 0 -
Welcome PaperDahlia!
We're glad you've joined us!

Nope haven't seen Bulging Bride... but I am glad to hear it is motivating you!
We originally looked at doing a traditional wedding.. Cost definitely factored into our decision to do a destination wedding though..0 -
I'm back! SORRY!
my bridal shower was this past weekend... and i think i prob gained a pound... just with the snacking... i still have another day till "weigh in" though...
but i was down to 160... with 10 more pounds to go till my myfitnesspal goal of 150 (though i still have stubborn belly that will NOT go away!)
the wedding is in 2 months! exactly from yesterday! EEK!
gotta kick this into high gear!
and as another note... picked up my dress on wednesday... it's gorgeous! and i look so teeny in it!0 -
Here's a link to the show if anyone wanted to know more about Bulging Brides. It's on the WE network.
http://www.wetv.com/shows/bulging-brides/episodes/
I'm an avid walker. So, If i had to start a challenge, i'd say.. everyone reading this..
Take 3000 more steps today/tomorrow than you normally would! (if you don't have a pedometer, then figure about 1.5 miles more than you'd normally accomplish
of course, walking uphill nets bonus points
my daily average is 9800 .. up from well probably 2000.
my goal is 14,000 steps a day 0 -
We decided to do a cruise-destination wedding. It is Feb. 2009! Looking forward to working on the challenge. I am having a hard time staying focused. I keep coming back to the site because I know it works, but I keep getting sidetracked and not posting my cal intake.0

CHECK IN
This week, everyone here should update us on how they're doing..
How are the wedding plans coming? and how is the weight loss coming along?0 -
Wedding plans are...needing to kick into high gear, and weight loss is at a plateau. HOWEVER, I'm not upset at all about that because I'm back into all my old clothes AND I went on a work trip to CA for the past two weeks and literally ate whatever I wanted (beer, too :drinker: ) and did not gain an ounce. I think the reason was I kept up my exercise routine religiously (weight lifting in hotel gyms, running outside, even found a spin class at the Anaheim Hilton - best hotel fitness center around!). Plus we walked just about everywhere. I'm just thrilled to have held steady and not gained. I resumed logging in calories today. Hopefully I can lose these last 10 lbs by June 7!
Good luck to everyone.
Oh, and my dress *just* fits. Want to keep it that way!
I wish the Invitation Fairy would come visit and send all my invites, though...that'd be lovely. :laugh:0 -
checking in...
after all the dropping... i seem to be stuck at a plateau... though i was bad this past weekend with drinking adn celebrating... oh well...
i also went through some spring cleaning and got rid of half my wardrobe cause i just don't fit it any more... they are too big!
we are mailing out our invites this week... so my evenings are filled with busy work... and my work day is hectic
but i'm making myself take my lunch break... adn i walk for 30 - 40 minutes... so hopefully the plateau will break... i need to get to 150 by the wedding!
and maybe 140 till i'm satisfied!0 -

Wow! Excellent work. I always have a hard time with exercise when I am not at home.

Do any of you ladies have any good suggestions for organizing the guest list ? or the table charts?
Also, what are your favorite resources?
Mine is theknot.com and ourweddingday.com0 -
I was hoping somebody would have an answer for you Kel because I really don't know. My fiance and I are so in the air with plans.. One day its Jamaica the next its in the park down the street.. So, I wish I could help you! When we were planning to go traditional all the way, theknot.com was really helpful to us. Are you doing a wedding website?0

Hi, Team,
I am not exactly sure what happened with our last challenge. Seems not everybody checks in often enough to make it work. Oh well. A slightly less complicated challenge is coming your way....
CHALLENGE #5
Check in this week (4/26 - 5/2)
Enter your starting weight.
Enter your current weight.
Enter your weight loss goal.
That's it! Sounds easy enough to me... Let's get back on track of our challenges and get one step closer to our weight loss goals!
To a fit and healthy life ~ :drinker:0 -
Starting weight - 170
Current - 162.4
Goal - 130!!0 -
Hi everyone!
I hope you don't mind a newbie jumping in. I'm getting married in October of this year! Yikes! Almost all the planning is done and I would say to you jammergirl go with Jamacia. Look at it this way youll save money because youll already be at your honeymoon location so no need to buy an additional set of airline tickets, and Jamacia has some really awesome all inclusives for insane rates like 1500 a week for two from what my bddy told me. Unfortionately for me I didn't get so lucky as to be able to go swing towards a destination wedding but its all about what she wants right?
Heres my excessive tare weight......
Starting weight: 261.0
Current Weight: 250.0
Goal Weight: 215 ( for now )0
