2013 Brides - fitness and planning buddies wanted!

Happy 2013! I have been on the site since early last year, did quite well and fell off a little in the last two months. I'm getting married this August and would love a group of ladies to chat with about fitness and wedding plans. Friend me :happy:

    I'm getting married in May 2013! I have to lose as much weight as possible before my first dress fitting in march! I'm very motivated to lose it before I have to even step into my wedding gown again! It was snug last time. yikes! So I'm laying it all on the table: I'm 203 lbs and I'd like to lose at LEAST 20 of them...scary thought, but plausible! I need all the motivation I can get from my fellow upcoming brides!
  • I'm getting married in June, and totally need to get on the ball with my fitness before my first dress fitting in march!

    I'm getting married May 3, 2013. I've already lost almost 50 pounds, and on strict order to not lose any more. HOWEVER- we can always work on those wedding dress arms and honeymoon bikini-worthy belly, right?! ;-)

    I find yoga is the quickest way to get my arms wonderfully toned! I just found this site to use for free videos to keep it interesting and challenging if you like to work out at home http://www.doyogawithme.com/
  • i would like someone to chat with. It's not easy to loose the weight, Im really stressed out at work and still single. Which i know guys aren't every thing. I just would really like to have someone to talk too. My goal would be to have more self confindce in my self.

    hi dawn,
    i have lots of confidence, enough for both of us!!!!
    i am also with a rosemary conley instructor, but need a kick up the behind too! was doing ok until xmas, house chocablock with chocs, crisps, cheese & biscuits, i havent bought it, it has sneaked in with hampers as xmas pressies, which i DID NOT ask for!
    i have lost almost 2 stone so far over the last 2 years, ( but have lost only a couple of pounds over the last year) but onwards and downwards i think from now on!!
    where are you?
    i am hoping to get married this summer, if i can fit into size 12/14 dress if i can get there, 3 stone to go!
    love karen x

    Getting married in June 2013. I want to lose a little weight and enjoy this great event without obsessing about weight or looks. So I decided the get healthier now rather than obsess closer to the date. My dress fitting is in late April. Good luck everyone!

    Losing the weight BEFORE buying the dress was such a good idea. I don't have to stress about anything, and I don't need to take in or squeeze into my gown. Good luck to all!

    I'm getting married Sept 27, 2013 and I'm getting into high gear! I just bought my dress, hoping to lose 20 lbs before the wedding! Best of luck to you, feel free to add me :-)
  • Congrads to you. My bestfriends are getting married in may so i understand the desire to fit into a dress! best wished to you! Anybody feel free to add me :) Best wishes
  • I am not a bride- well I was, but I was a 2008 bride :-). Anyway, I peeked into this forum because September 2013 my cousin is getting married and I need to drop some serious pounds. I absolutely cannot be the "fat" relative in the pictures- no way. no how! But I refuse to skip anymore social events because of my size. Time to get down to business. And I know if ANYONE is serious about fitness, its a bunch of brides!!! Good Luck ladies.

    I am getting married in April and would like to lose half a stone by then. This time last year I was a 16 pounds lighter and at my ideal weight (maybe a tad under it even) so I am annoyed at myself for letting it creep back on, especially with the wedding coming up. I do not want to be worrying about how my chubby arms look in the photos so I need to be strict with myself!

    I am good at doing lots of exercise (I did a 4mile run yesterday and a 4mile run this morning, as well as a 35 min swim this ev) but not very good at restricting what i eat.....I've done it before so i know i can do it again, but it won't be easy!.
