    Alanna, glad I'm not the only one! I think 40 lbs in 7 months is do-able, but it's going to be tough. What do you all do for exercise? I'm been trying to make myself and addict!! It's beautiful and sunny today in Kentucky, where I live...about 65 degrees right now. I'm going to go for an hour long walk as soon as I leave the office. :)

    I'm a techie, so I get a silly kick out of new toys. I've been starting to get into running, so I decided to buy a heart rate monitor last night. I couldn't wait to get up this morning at 5:30 AM to try the stupid thing out! I know, I know - I'm a little bit nuts, but it works. I also run with the Nike+ system and I love seeing my log of runs, comparing my times, seeing improvement, and now I can watch my heart rate improvement as I get more fit!

    I think it's doable too! Just going to have to put in a lot of hard work! Right now I am "running" on the treadmill and taking spin classes. It's bitterly cold here in Newfoundland and there is snow covering the sidewalks so I don't have the luxury of exercising outside. :( I find getting my exercise in right after I leave the office is the only way it works for me, if I go home first I just stay there! ha!

    Congrats on your 1.6 loss! That's fantastic!
    My office has a health and wellness program where we can get weighed in every two weeks, as of yesterday I am down 4lbs in two weeks! woo! Wedding planning is going well, almost everything that we need is booked, thinking about invitations now!

    Alanna - thats an awesome loss!! I bought my wedding band this weekend. It's gorgeous and it was 50% off! So i got it for $399 instead of $699! That's a deal.

    This thread was just what I needed! I'm getting married September 28, and my first dress fitting is mid April. I want to lose 15 pounds by the big day!

    So what is everyone doing for exercise? I just printed out a treadmill workout that i'm going to start doing on the days that I don't work at Both of my jobs. It's about 45 minutes and it changes speeds and incline. I really hope that can kickstart my weight loss! I also need to do some sort of strength so that my arms aren't flabby in my wedding dress (that I haven't even started looking for yet...)
