Wedding in 5 1/2 weeks!!!

I’m getting married in just over a month and I just had my first dress fitting. My dress fit but it felt a bit snug. I really want to be comfortable at my wedding and don’t want to have to be self conscious about my body in pictures. I know I should have started losing weight earlier, but it’s been a crazy summer! Anyway, I set my goal to 1.5 lbs a week. I’m 5’6” and 154 lbs. Is a goal of 145 realistic for the big day?? Has anyone else had success with weight loss in a short period of time?

    if you lose that much, odds are your dress wont fit properly.

    2-3lbs would probably be enough.

    I wouldn’t put too much pressure on yourself to lose a significant amount of weight. You’ll be stressed enough planning your wedding and getting everything ready. If you just lose maybe 3 lbs like the person above said it would probably be enough to make your dress a little less snug. You don’t want to lose too much and have to get it taken in right before the wedding do you?
