    My sister is eloping in a month, and my daughter is the flower girl in my brother's wedding in September. My FSIL asked me if I would be hurt if I wasn't a BM. I told her I would love her more, way more, if she didn't make me.

    My sister is a BM for FSIL, and lordy the dress drama has already begun. 200$ these days for BM dresses. Yikes!

    Bride to be! No set date, but we are looking at the end of this summer/early fall. I was already down 20lbs before the engagement, but I want to keep the momentum. In a perfect world I will be at my goal weight by the wedding by it is going to take some serious dedication and sweat!

    Bridesmaid in early August! I didn't lose as much as I wanted to for my own wedding in April 2015. So, I'm looking to lose about 30 lbs by summer 2016! Anyone can feel free to add me.

    I'm already married and no one I know is getting married.

    I need to see you all in these dresses. Am so jealous. I love weddings :)

    July 2016. Although my goal this year is to do a powerlifting competition, so no specific weight goal (and hey, the dress already fits).

    Anyone else worried about their dress fitting? I ordered a large because that's what my measurements at the time corresponded to and I didn't want to order down in case I didn't lose but I've been doing really well so I'm afraid it's going to be way too big.

    Not a bride or bridesmaid myself, but since you mention ED recovery and just wanting to focus on health in general, maybe a goal to focus on could be a muscle percentage? That way even if your weight fluctuates, you're building strength.

    I'm a bride to be, probably January 2017 so have loads of time. I do want to be in shape though.

    The designer who I bought my dress through said that they can cut down dresses 3-4 sizes. You should be fine; it's much easier to make a dress smaller than to try and let it out.
