in Health and Weight Loss
I’m looking for newly engaged/future brides that are looking to slim & trim up. I have about 15-20lbs to go before I’ll be at a good weight. I just got engaged on the weekend and would love to have engagement pictures done soon but I think I will wait until I’m slimmer. We don’t have plans to get married right away…possibly in 2014!

I’m looking for some ladies to help keep us on track to our goals so we can look our best for both engagement photos and the big day when it comes! :happy:

    I recently got engaged October 26th of this year, we are planning for a destination wedding April 2014. Feel free to add me as well :) I have about 40lbs I would like to lose. I am trying to lose around 25lbs by Feb/Mar so I can go try on dresses and get that sorted.

    Congratulations! I got engaged in July but we are probably aiming for 2014 too. At the moment the money isn't there plus we're both super busy but at least it gives the time to slim up and trim up! I've got about 14lbs to go too until I reach my ultimate goal weight. I'm floundering a little bit at the moment but I'm sure we could give each other a nudge in the right direction when needed!

    I got engaged in February and we're getting married on August 15th 2013. Currently at 234lbs and aiming for at least 50 off by then. I'm at the gym 3-5 days a week depending on work, have a personal trainer 2 sessions a week and have started playing wheelchair basketball. Feel free to add me.

    Wow congratulations to everyone, I just got engaged as well last month and getting married May 2013! I have lost 30 pounds (well it was 40 and recently put back on 10!!!!) and so I have about 25 pounds left. Agree about wanting to wait a little for engagement pictures, maybe by February? Is that too late?

    Will add some of you but if I missed you please feel free to add me. I have been inactive on MFP the last two months :cry: but just got back on today!!!

    meee! I have to drop 15 lbs. I've gained weight BACK since ordering my bridal dress that comes in at the end of January, eeek! My wedding is set for mid April. I was on a good roll when I ordered my dress, i order the size I tried on which was only a tad bit too tight around the bust and didnt zip up the last inch, but I thought, ehhh, i can lose that easy.... I've pretty much fallen off the wagon since. I need to get it under control stat!
