Bride to be needing to take it off and keep it off until 2017!

Options
Hi MFP! I just joined in an effort to take off my weight and keep it off (the hardest part for me) until my July 2017 wedding! I want to lose all my weight no later than spring of 2016 when I will start shopping for my dress! I've run half marathons in the past but have fallen out of running shape so I'm taking myself (and my pup) through a couch to 5k program to get us both back in the swing of things, then hopefully continuing on building up the mileage for these next couple of years.

I would love to be friends with any other runners or brides to keep each other motivated!
