Putting off setting a date

Anyone else not setting a date until they are where they want to be weight wise? I know it sounds silly, but I refuse to get married and be photographed and have my day remembered looking as big as I am now. We've been together over 10 years since I was 18. Im really pushing to get this weight off cause I am ready already, but I wont set a date specifically yet. Maybe I should though to have a target to work towards?

I have to say that I think that's part of it in my case and things like one or both of us being in college and/or broke or moving or planning to move, etc. Our relationship is amazing and there's never been a single doubt there, we've just been crazy happy and content with how we are. We've been together since 2000. I'm actually glad I've waited so long because I feel like a more complete person now that I have this aspect of my life under control, but we definitely DO want to get married and always have. I'm looking forward to actually feeling good about how I look in the dress!0

I'm not necessarily putting off my wedding date, but I am certainly putting off wedding dress shopping until I am a weight I am comfortable with! Those bridal shops are absolutely brutal when it comes to sizing, and I don't think my psyche can handle it. Everyone's pressuring me to "start looking" but I absolutely refuse to walk into a store that has a bunch of beautiful dresses I can't wear (yet!). At the end of the day, it's YOUR wedding so it should be YOUR call!
Good luck to all those beautiful brides to be out there!
