    Hi Ladies! There are 100 days until I say I do!! I'm doing p90x (mixed with a bit of Brazil Butt Lift and Insanity) to tone up a bit more for the big day. Ideally I'd like to loose 9 more pounds before the big day but my major goal is to tone up my arms and back. I'll friend you guys... feel free to friend me!

    Mine's Feb 2013. All I want is toned arms. That's it. I figure by the time I get toned arms the rest of my body should be in shape too.

    Shop for it now even if it's just to get an idea of what you like, the dress I ended up liking the most dress to face was the total opposite to the ones I liked in the magazines :D You could always then reassess and actually buy when you get closer to goal weight and even then dresses can be taken in if you lose more. Another thing was after i tried on my dream dress my motivation to lose weight doubled 0_0

    I'm getting married July 5 2014 and am thinking about going to get fitted for dresses around Christmas this year...just for a starting point. I would like to be down another 20lbs before our big day, but since I have some time, I think it's totally doable!!! Feel free to add me so we can share planning advice, motivation tips and just overall wedding stuff!!!! Congratulations to all you future brides to be!! :)

    Congratulations!!!

    Do a picture timetable. Make a box or an X on the floor with masking tape. This will be where you stand each week to get a forward facing pic, sideways and back....for eveyone participating. Weighing at least 1/week keeps you more accountable, as does measuring. The way your clothes fit is acutally a better measure of your success than the scales are. Start hunting for and trying on those dressed too (trying on clothes has always been my biggest motivator). It's great that your bridemaids are doing this with you!


    Am getting married in 2013 too!!!!!! Scary and exciting.

    Like the original poster, I am set to get married August 24, 2013 and looking great on my wedding day is one of the prime reasons I am trying to get in better shape and start living a healthier lifestyle. I need motivation in every sense of the word. I have 3 kids at home and I constantly allow myself to make excuses and not exercise and stick with those quick fix, processed just bad bad foods. Well, no more! I need to change! I need to get better and I want my family to be better.
