Calling all 2013 and 2014 Brides!

Taking a turn off the Biggest Loser (and the Biggest Loser challenge here on MFP), I'd like to see if there is enough interest to do a Biggest Loser Bride Challenge. I'm thinking about a similar 12 week challenge in teams based on when your wedding date is (e.g. May 2013 Brides, September 2013 Brides, etc.). I'm not sure if we'll have enough brides, but chime in here that you're interested and/or message me with the following:

1. Name
2. Wedding Date
3. Home State (may sort this way if the dates don't work out for numbers)
4. Current Weight
5. Goal Weight for 12 week cycle
6. Overall Goal Weight

I'd like to start this Sunday (1/6), but we can always start next week (1/13) if it looks like we've got a lot of interest.

So, you interested??

    I'm interested! My wedding is in October in Norfolk, Virginia. My current weight is 170 and I'd like to be 130 for the wedding, though I'm aiming to get to 140 by June 1 then reassess my goals at that point.
