    November 30th!! Basically have until September to lose around 50 lbs (of the overall amount i want to lose). invested in myself by hiring a personal trainer which i go to once a week, it's been great. I've only shed 9 lbs the past 4 wks, but i'm shedding inches great, not on any extreme diet, and building muscle as well... so i'm doing it the RIGHT way :)

    I'm getting married Sept 1st. I'd like to lose about 2-3% body fat by my bachelorette party (first weekend in August)....so, 3 months! Exercise is the easy part for me. I workout 6 days a week and also instruct classes. Hard part for me is food - especially w/ lots of fun summer events and vacations coming up! Hoping I can keep it in check!

    Hey! Am also getting married soon, on 3rd of August. I've only a few pounds left to go. I've been losing weight by counting calories religiously, everything I put in my mouth I record. I've been exercising for half an hour most days. Either a brisk walk or a workout from an app I downloaded. I really see results. I'm not just looking at the scales now, I'm hopin to tone up too. Have a wedding dress fitting in a week. So excited

    August 3rd for me too! I am looking to get the last 10 pounds off.

    I'm getting so discouraged...my weight isn't budging at all. I might start aiming for a few sky high deficits a week I order to shift a few pounds before the big day...we shall see.

    Hello Ladies!

    Congrats on your engagements! I am also a bride-to-be. My fiance and I will be walking down the aisle on September 28th, and I will be having family members throughout the world fly in to the US to take part in my wedding. I am so nervous that I will not meet my goal to lose 50 lbs by then. In the past month, I have lost 6 lbs, but I feel like it's taking too long! Ugh, much support is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    i have an idea , dont pay attention to the scale.. as long as you look like you lost 50 lbs that's all that matters. so if you lost 35-40 or even 50 lbs i'm sure it'll look like you've lost more.. i know i didnt lose much in my first month 8 lbs ( could've been more but i struggle on the weekends haha)

    ... I know we as women INCLUDING myself as a bride to be 07/27/2013 my goal is to lose 30 lbs but as long as i look like i've lost that much that's fine with me... b/c in the end we are worried about what we look like on the big day....

    hope that helps

    I'm getting married in October and I am not happy with myself at all. I was doing really well for a while and lost 9 lbs pretty quickly, but for some reason my motivation has just plummeted. My original goal was to lose about 30 lbs before my wedding, but now I'm changing it to 25. I've got 16 more to go and I am just hoping that the summer sun will help flip that switch in my brain and get me back on track.

    Hey ladies,

    I need some motivation! I'm getting married in two months and it'd down to the wire. I'd like to lose somewhere between 5-10lbs between now and June 22nd. I'm down 4lbs already. I just need some extra help, tips, motivation, and support from fellow brides trying to look their best in their wedding dress! Pictures are forreverrr

    Congratulations! I am getting married in a year so I have much longer to meet my goals...best of luck and I'm sure you'll look beautiful! :)
