    Yes ma'am! I am doing the same thing too. Of course, I want to make goal weight long before the wedding. Our date is set for October 4, 2013 in St. Thomas, USVI (beachside wedding). Let's help each other :)

I have a very hectic schedule as I am working full time, in school AND planning the wedding.... its been VERY hard for me. And I am soooo afraid to be too fat for my dress......

    I'm doing the same thing...work full time, grad school at night, and wedding planning. On top of having my future husband's step kids every weekend who basically despite healthy food! Hahaha. Sometimes I feel like I'm screwed. LOL

    My wedding is August 24, 2013 and I NEED to lose about 50lbs. I am 167 right now and would love to get to the 115-120lbs range. I have gone to try on dresses to get a feel for what it is I like and I think I have found THE dress but I have not purchased it yet. 1...because I want to lose weight first and not have to pay extra money for a bunch of alterating. and 2......I may like another dress once I lost weight.

    I need all the support and motivation that I can find. I really want to look phenomenal and just start my journey to a healthier life!

    I'm *SO* excited there are so many other brides! I don't have a dress yet, and I am having trouble fitting in to them because my dimensions just don't really match. (Small chest/waist, but wide hips!) I just want to get to a size that doesn't fit me funny! I also try to keep up with my future husband; he is 7 feet tall, and plays sports all the time, on top of working, AND he hits the gym constantly, and cooks up a healthy dinner every night. I can't not try when I know he works so hard to look good for me (and SUCEEDS! lol!)

    planning for May long weekend 2013. Started with MFP in March and I have lost 40 pounds - down from size 12/14 to a size 6! Think I might try to lose another 5 pounds as "insurance", that will let me eat a bit more over the holidays and still fit into the dress. :laugh:
