in Introduce Yourself
Hello my name is Livia, and I'm 29. I have already lost 55lbs, but I need to lose another 46. I need some motivation to get there, and that is why I joined this awesome site, and because a friend pushed me!:tongue: I am getting married June 4th and would love to meet some other brides to work with me, and if your not a bride that's alright too! I'd love to have any help that I can get. I want to be beautiful on the inside out and to really feel it! I am also doing this because I want to be healthy, and feel good about myself again!

    Hi I'm Susan and I'm also a bride to be! Our wedding is April 30th so I'm getting down to the wire, only about 5 months. I've been "trying" to loose wait for about 7 months and haven't gotten anywhere, so a friend told me about this site so I thought I would give it a try. So today is my start! Good luck!

    Hi! I'm also getting married June 4th next year! I'm trying to lose 30 lbs before ours. Welcome to the site! This has been so helpful for me - I was so not motivated before, but then I saw a friend who was using it and decided to try it. Let me tell you, seeing how much all of my friends are burning and losing keeps me so motivated, so hopefully we can do the same for each other!

    Hey!
    Not a bride to be, but my boyfriend says he will propose once I hit 58kg approx 128 so I guess I'm a fiancee to be?

    Anyway, I'd love to add you so we can keep each other motivated!

    Hey! I am a bride to be as well. Our date is September 10, 2011. I have about 60 lbs to go and have lost 16 lbs so far using this site. I LOVE IT!! It definately is a motivator and holds you accountable for what you eat. I find I make better choices as far as calories go. I have given up things that arent "worth" the calories. Congrats on your loss soo far and keep up the good work!!

    Hey!

    congrats to all you bride-to-be's! I'm a bride to be too! YA! I'm getting married Aug. 13, 2011. I joined this website to help me lose weight. Of course I would love to say I'm losing weight for the wedding. that's only partly true! I want to lose the weight I gained working night shift. I'm a little disappointed in myself. I never thought I'd be the bride that had to lose 20lbs before her wedding. oh well...I'm comfortable with my fiance ( he's got a little belly himself). All brides are beautiful on their wedding day though... big or small.

    I just wanted to to say welcome. I'm newer too!

    Hello everyone!

    Congrats to everyone who is a bride-to-be and also groom-to-bes! I'm not one, but still wishing to lose weight to be happy with myself and also so I can look good (but not better than the bride) for Livia's wedding. I love you, Livia, and I know we can do this together. Heck, you've done wonderful by yourself so far but I'm def. looking forward to trying this out together. I can't wait to move closer to you so we can start trying every night/morning if we want!
    Good luck to everyone, and I know we all can do it!

    i'm getting married in july and totally understand how you feel. fitness pal has seriously helped me. it makes me have some self control when it comes to eating, and makes me take some responsibility on exercising.

    Feel free to add me as a friend! I'm going to put up a picture of myself in my dress after I try it on next week. I'm hoping that will help motivate me to keep the exercise journey going!
