    Yes, you can! You have 4 months and with the determination that I know a bride can have (went through the same situation myself in 2011) you will look perfect in your wedding gown! Best wishes and congrats on the wedding! :love:

    A wedding dress - WHAT AN EXCITING GOAL! Girl, I wish I was in your shoes, I hope to be there soon myself. I recently read an article in Oprah mag that said "every choice you make either enhances your spirit or denies it". I suppose that could be said about eating or exercising:

    -Having the loaded baked potato with dinner (DENY)
    -Having steamed broccoli and raw carrots again for dinner while everyone else is having a loaded baked potato (ENHANCE)
    -Skipping the gym to stay home and watch Dancing with the Stars (DENY)
    -Going to Zumba class (ENHANCE)

    Hope this made you chuckle! You should track how many inches until you can get the dress zipped - inquiring minds want to know. AND of course - what does the dress look like?

    I'm getting married on 5th march and refusing to buy my suit until the day before. I want every possible pound gone, so totally get where you're coming from. I only wish I had until May. Lol.

    You'll do great!!! One thing I did was to completely avoid cake. I didn't eat a single bite of cake (or cupcake) leading up to my wedding. It helped me lose weight AND it made my wedding cake taste that much better. It was like celebrating my weight loss triumph and my marriage all in one bite.

    I got my wedding dress a few months ago (ordered it online) and I thought it would fit -- imagine my humiliation when IT WOULDN'T GO ON. Ugh. Horrid. Trying to lose 25 more lbs by May so I can look and feel awesome.
