    I'm in! No date set yet, not officially engaged, but patiently expecting a ring over the holidays and hoping for a very small wedding next year. No matter when or what happens exactly, I don't want to become a wife at this weight!

    I'm at 185 now. Ultimate goal is 145, but I'm just taking it 5 pounds at a time and seeing what works.

    Hey Ladies!

    I thought it would be a great idea to start a Bride To Be 2012 Challenge!. This is were we can update each other on how we are feeling, and of course are accomplishments! So here's the first challenge: 15lbs by Jan 1, 2012!! That's 7.5 lbs a month! Every Sunday we can post our weigh in. Once we hit Jan 1st, 2012! Our next 2 month goal will start. I'm open to any ideas, whether its lbs lost, miles walked, or just staying within our calories.

    Current weight 205lbs
    Goals weight by Jan 1st: 190lbs

    Good luck to my girls!!

    Love ,

    Lisa


    Ok I'll be first. Just weighed myself. Lost 2.6lbs xx

    Can't wait to here of other losses this week

    Sounds like a great idea! I'm in!

    Congratulations to everyone, and thank you for all of the awesome posts so far! It's nice to know I'm not the only one trying to shed some pounds before The Big Day. My wedding's not until 9/29/12, but I figure if I start early, then I'll be ready to go before I hit the meltdown stage!

    Good luck to everyone, and congratulations again!

    NSV! Tried on my dress for my mother while she was visiting this weekend and it felt distinctly looser than last time!

    Alright - I know yesterday was weigh in day... so here we go...

    Oct 30th - 166lbs
    My Goal - Jan 1st - 156lbs

    Even though I am doing a lower goal - this will be a challenge for me - obviously I have the holidays like everyone else, but I also have a trip to Scotland (currently working on my work out plan for the trip). I will everyone luck and I love that we are all here to hold each other accountable!

    Huge news! My earlier post about assuming I'd be getting married next year is now TRUE!!! He popped the question (with a GORGEOUS ring) on Monday! I think we're doing a "just us" kind of wedding, and I'm thinking in March, after the holidays/my birthday are out of the way. Don't want the anniversary getting overshadowed every year.

    Now, I have even more motivation to get in shape. WOOO!!!

    I was hoping I could find some fellow brides out here. :D My wedding is Sept. 29, 2012 and I want to look and feel healthier for my wedding day. I'm excited to start this challenge with all of you. :P Good luck!

    Current weight: 218.5
    Goal by Jan. 1: 203.5

    On a side note, does anyone have any good ideas for thanksgiving/christmas? I don't want to sabotage myself , even though I LOVE holiday food. :)

    I am starting late ... but, I just became a BRIDE TO BE within the last week. So, I am excited to get started.

    I look forward to meeting some of you "fitness pals!"

    My Wedding Date is not until 2013 but I have alot of weight to drop before then. About 90 lbs -alot.

    So keep me abreast of the challenges and goals. I can't wait to get started!!!
