We're planning on a Fall 2014 wedding, and I would love to have all this weight gone to look and feel beautiful on the day.
I'm currently 5'9 and 262 pounds. My current goal is 200 pounds. Final goal would be about 150/160.

I'm 22 years old and have been with my fiance for 6 years. We've been engaged for a 1 and a half. I weighed prob 170 when I first started dating him and topped off at 226.:/ I'm only 5.4 and a half. I've lost 30ish lbs so far and my weight flucates from 192-195. I should get down to 145ish but my goal for now is 160. I don't exercise and I love chocolate yet wonder why the scale isn't dropping..lol. Need to make a change! I want to pick a dress because I love it not because it can hide my belly.0

Hi everyone,
Congratulations to all of us on being engaged!!! I'm new to MyFitness pal, and am so happy I stumbled upon this group. I am determined to be smaller than I am now on my wedding day. My fiance and I are planning a fall wedding in 2014. We are hoping everything works out financially so we can finally tie the know. We've been engaged for a couple years, and would love to finally be married.
Also, if anyone is looking for a friend please don't hesitate to add me. We are all in this together!0 -
Hi All! I'm 29 and have been with my fiance officially for about 6.5 years (we were friends before then) and we've been engaged since January 2012. We're getting married in late September or early October 2014. It's a long engagement because he's in school but honestly I'm glad to have 2 years to plan and to lose weight!
Here are my stats:
Ht: 5'4.5"
SW/HW: 195
CW: 176
GW: 125...maybe 135 by the wedding, I'll see how I feel when I get there
I agree with what someone else said- I want to choose my dress because I LOVE it, not because it hides me belly!
Good luck to everyone and feel free to add me!0 -
Hello Girls!
I'm Ally. My fiance of going on 4 years proposed to me in Februrary. Our wedding is set for July 12, 2014. Im 5'6 1/2", 20 years old, and started at 230.6. I am currently at 203.4 and losing. I plan to be around 160 for my goal and then go from there.

Hi! Just got engaged in September in Disneyland, planning a Fall wedding in 2014. I tried on dresses for fun and was shocked at hor horrible I looked in them. I just want to actually feel pretty on my wedding day. I'm 5'8" and started at 210, hoping to lose around 40, but 50 would be better! I'm a grad student in NY.

Hi all! I'm jumping in. I haven't set a date yet, but am leaning for Spring 2014 as I don't think I can get everything together by Spring 2013 (we just got engaged 2 weeks ago and I have NO idea what kind of wedding I want ).
I've been on the weight loss journey for several years but have been much more committed to exercise for the last 5 or 6 months. I The highest weight I remember being was somewhere around 220. I'm at 183 now (I'm 5'8) and would ultimately like to get to 160, though my first goal was 180 (almost there, but I've been stuck!).
I'm excited to go dress shopping ,though I think I need to hold off for now....0 -
Hey!
I'm Alexa, I'm 24, 5ft4, 138lb (aiming to be 122lb). Lost the weight once before, but then... well, you know how it is, uni, relationship, too much take out....
Me and my fiance have been engaged for just over a year now. We haven't officially set the date yet - we're meant to be waiting to plan until I'm done with uni (in 200days!) - but I dreamt the other night that we got married on 6th July 2014 - and so we've decided to set that as a probable date. I do already have the dress though (The not planning thing has not been going well lol!)

Hi everyone!
I'm 20 years old & my amazing fiance & I have been engaged for a little over a year. We're planning on getting married in June of 2014.
I'm 5'4" & started out at 205 lbs. I hope to be at 130-140 when I walk down the aisle. I also want to be around 170-160 when I go dress shopping this summer/fall so I can get a dress that I love, rather than one that just simply can hide my tummy.
Good luck to everyone. I know we can all reach our goals!0 -
Hi everyone!
I'm Kaitlyn & have been engaged since June! We're coming up on our 3 year anniversary, and are getting married next February! Over the past 7ish years I went from a size 4 to a size 16. I was an active, avid dancer - but sustained some injuries & gained weight. By the time I could exercise again, I had packed on about 70 pounds! I'm 28, and at 210 pounds, I would like to lose 60 by the wedding! I am naturally very curvy, so super slim does not look good on me. I'm so happy to join a group who understands what I'm going through!
Nice to meet you all,
Kaitlyn0 -
Hii, My name is Stephanie and my fiance Luke is also a member on MFP, we got engaged over Christmas break (December 27) and our date is August 23 2014. We're both trying to lose weight before the big day, and specifically trying to lose 23lbs by August 2013. I'm 24 years old, and have struggled with eating and my weight my entire life, topping at one point at 283lbs, and having been down as low as 197lbs in the past year. Over the last 4 months I've gained around 24lbs back and I would like to shed that before the one year anniversary for our wedding, August 23 2013 which is when I will start looking for my wedding dress!0

Hi Beautiful Brides!
My name is Chelsea and I'm marrying my best friend Tony on May 25th, 2014!
I'm so happy to be his wifey I can't stand it - not to mention the fact that I'm totally stoked to throw a big *kitten* party!
That being said, I'm very nervous about losing weight before the big day.
I've struggled with my weight my entire life - yoyoing between 145-185 since adulthood.
When I began to date my fiance I was 150 and going down... then I gained THIRTY POUNDS the first year we were together... just being fat and happy together.
I've been working very hard to lose about 25 pounds over the next year and have began to get very lazy, happy, and fat... again.
Now that I have a ring, and a date, this is serious!
I want to be 145lbs before I walk into a dress shop- and I want to do that about a year before the date... so I have around 3 months to lose 24 pounds.
I feel like I can do it, but I'm such a chronic overeater, stress eater, eater out of boredom... I have a tendency to eat.
So I'm back on MFP and began daily zuumba sessions on wii as of today.
Wish me luck and I wish you all a happy happy engagement time!
