Sweating for the Wedding, anyone?

ThirdxTheCharm

Whoop Whoop! Another October 18th 2014 wedding here!
Been engaged for a year already and lost 5kilos in that time. Another 10 to go... But it will be worth it when I see the my gorgeously toned arms in my strapless gown :drinker:

Hi. I am getting married May 17, 2014. My goal is to lose 25 by then. It is hard work

ShanekiaC

I am aiming for tone arms as well

Good luck you can do it

Getting married May 17, 2014 as well! It is coming up quick! I would be happy with 10 more pounds by then... and hopefully toner arms too!!

Great Idea! Congrats on your engagement. I am also getting married this year. June 14th. Its coming up so soon! My goal is 18 more pounds to lose. Good luck!

I'm in the final stretch and getting married on 5/17/14! I'm trying to drop a few more before then!

Yes! I'm getting married on July 5th (about 108 days... but who's counting?!). I was about 234 pounds when I bought my dress, not to mention many inches larger. I'm now worried that my dress will fall off of me (I'm 208 now and still losing...)
Congrats to all the brides to be!

My sister is getting married in August and I am her matron of honor. I am hoping to lost at least another 30lbs by then. Currently at 228 now. We are supposed to be going dress shopping this weekend. NOT looking forward to that. Congratulations and you got this!

DivineLotus

Haha kinda. My sister is getting married (in August). I've been married for years. I'm a bridesmaid and although the dress she chose isn't too terrible, it's flattering to most body types, I still want to be smaller in pics so my motivation is a wedding, just not mine

Congrats to you!

Another bridesmaid here...

Sweating for my cousin's wedding in July in Italy! If I don't sweat before, I'll definitely be sweating on the day :-)

Am also getting married, June 16, beach wedding. I have started this journey again like I have so many times before. Would be nice to be able to keep it off. Hoping to loose at least 20 lbs before I can into the dress. Any encouragement would be greatly appreciated.

How funny, my profile says "shedding for the wedding" lol close I guess.

Congrats on your wedding! I am getting married 5/17/14.

Hey there! Congrats to all the brides to be! I'm getting married May 9, 2015 and looking to lose 60 pounds! Feel free to add me as well! :flowerforyou:

MissMegannLee

Not yet married, but my boyfriend and I have been in talks of an engagement and possible wedding year. I decided I wanted to get healthier and in better shape mostly for myself but also for the future. I don't want to be super over weight at my wedding and I don't want to be over weight when I decide to have children. I am looking forward to marrying my honey at some point in my life and I am looking forwards to getting in better shape for both the future and myself! If you want you can add me,

nikig29

I'm also sweating for the wedding. Our date is 11/15/14. I'm hoping to lose about 20 pounds by then. I already bought my dress and they don't recommend sizing it down more than 2 sizes so my goal of 20 pounds should be obtainable. Feel free to add me and we can support each other!

Good Luck Ladies!

dortilolma

Congrats everyone!
We're getting married in early July - 4 months.
I've not got much to lose but its that stubborn kind of weight that simply refuses to move!

Best of luck all you brides (and bridesmaids to be)

tanyoshka

That's awesome! I accidentally lost about 45 pounds the year before my wedding. I say accidentally because the wedding wasn't the reason I started working out and eating better, so it just sort of worked out that way. It will be SOOO worth it for you. I love that in all my wedding pictures I look like a skinny mini (well, skinny for me, anyway). It also made me feel like a gorgeous bride on my big day. Don't give up!

LassoOfTruth

Not a bride, but Oct 18th is me and my boyfriend's 5 year anniversary!

I wish you luck, and congrats on the engagement!

November 1st 2015. Second marriage so I decided to wear what I want, and not feel pressured to go with a traditional bridal look. I'm hoping my dress will arrive from the US this week and it is 2 sizes too small so I have a great incentive. I will still be big, but hopefully the photos won't look quite as bad;-)
I am REALLY looking forward to the buffet at the reception. It will be the first time in months I won't count the calories...

Congratulations! I got married in May of 2012, but I really like the phrase "sweating for the wedding." Cutesy!

RaineeNyte

Congrats on the coming engagement!
I love that... Sweating for the Wedding! Me too... a little ways to go before the wedding date (March 28, 2015). I want to lose 60 pounds by then and 90 over all...
You can do it! We all have such great inspiration. I just got started yesterday and like some of you I have been on and off these boards for years. However, I am very excited about this and thrilled to be interacting with people on the same page!
All the best to you all

Thanks for posting the group. I've joined.

My wedding date is May 3, 2014. I'd like to lose at minimum 5 lbs between now & then. It's a tough slog as I'm only 10-15 pounds away from goal.

RachelaT90

I am! June 7th 2014 so only 3 months! I want to lose at least 1 stone by my hen weekend (2 months away) and another half a stone at least after that before the wedding.

Honeymoon is the day after and we are going to Ibiza- I am a bikini-phobe so this is a HUGE deal to me haha

batgirl_273

Me too.. getting married November 8 2014. I have another 40-50 lbs I want to lose before then but has lost my motivation. Feel free to add me and let's DO THIS!!!

tlynn141978

I started out with a goal of getting more fit for my wedding on 6/28/14, but I am realizing how this needs to be long-term lifestyle change. Rather than focusing on a number by the wedding, I just want to be healthier and feel better in my skin... which will make me a glowing bride no matter what my weight. I'm actually more focused on body fat right now, than anything! Oh, and I want to be able to do a pull up!!

Kim, good luck to you and all the other brides-to-be on this board. I just started MFP about 2 weeks ago, and am loving how easy it is to use for tracking my nutrition and exercise! I also have a Fitbit One and it's very cool that the apps work together to adjust my calorie needs.

Height = 5'7
Starting weight = 162 (1/23/14)
Current weight = 155 (today)
Goal weight = 135 (someday)

Best to all!

I got engaged in December 2013 and was originally planning for an October 2014 wedding (the 18th or 25th), but I was putting too much stress on myself worrying about my weight and also just planning the wedding itself, so we're looking at May 9, 2015 instead with engagement photos this October to sort of compromise.
