    Wowza! Glad to see so many of you chiming in after just a few hours. Yah!

    To answer a few questions:

    1. ALL brides are welcome (cheers to our UK Brides!).

    2. The challenge is a 12 week team contest to see which team can lose the most weight over the total time allotted. I would love to start on Sunday/Monday (diet/exercise changes that start on these days are more likely to stick), but we'll see if I'm still getting a lot of responses tomorrow. If it looks like we're getting a lot of new brides, I will push the contest out to start in a week. I don't want to leave anyone out just because we did this on short notice.

    3. What do you have to do? I have your base weight. We'll simply be reporting our weight as of a certain time/date each week. I'll handle the administrative part of tracking. Other groups are doing recipe posts, weekly team challenges, diet suggestions, workouts, etc., so I figure we'll come up with our own version. I specifically want to know about everyone's dresses, so I'll figure out a fun topic in that lane and get it up soon. To those curious about juggling this with other challenges, I don't see why there would be a conflict since you could minimally just report your weight in each week by the deadline.

    Okay... so that's all so far. I'm going to start a group as soon as I can figure out how to do that and invite you all.

    Thanks for your interest. I'm super excited for all of us!

    Hello Beautiful Brides!

    In case you haven't noticed, we've started the group for this challenge called:

    MFP Biggest Loser: Brides!

    It's an open group until we start with our weigh in on Sunday, so feel free to join anytime between now and then. You can send me your details in a message or post them here. I'll keep checking back here to be sure that no one is accidentally left out.

    The plan is to get you all into teams by Saturday and get the groups notified.

    **I also wanted to say how delighted I am to see everyone chiming in on one another's status updates and posts. You are already proving to be a great group! The engagement year(s) can be tough and so can weight loss, but together I know we can do it!**
