    My wedding date is October 10th. I started watching my calorie intake back in November and I have lost 25 pounds. Somedays are harder than others but just keep thinking about how you want to look. You will think differently about food if you set your mind to it. :smile:

    I was thinking the same thing you were and then I decided to have my fiance join me and we help each other.

    I know you can do it, good luck!

    Congrats on your engagement.....The wedding is the biggest motivation out there....you can do this!!!!

    Start now....dont let December come and you still havent started.....many people regret not going the extra mile to look amazing on their wedding day......Start now and take your time, that way there is no pressure to lose the weight too fast

    Goodluck

    You can do it! Just keep reminding yourself why you are eating right and working out. Not just for your wedding day, but for the wonderful life you will have.

    PS. Congrats on your engagement, and you picked a great day for a wedding. I'll be married 28 years on June 11, 2011.

    Congrats! Don't do what I have done though....in the last 2 years I have lost 50 pounds, and now my wedding is just over 3 months away and not only have I not lost the last 15 I wanted to, I gained 10 back!:sad:

    Good luck, you can do it, a year is plenty of time to get on the right track.

    I got married June 26th and my goal was to get into my dress. And I did it! I was so proud and my day was perfect. I liked watching Bulging Brides and The Last 10 Pounds Boot Camp on Splice TV. Not sure if you would get that where you live as it is a Canadian Show. The wedding dress is a big motivator. The tough part now though is now that the wedding is over I need to maintain. It can't be just for the dress and pictures. I want it for a life time. FYI - my before was 144 pounds heavier. Congratulations and I hope your day is as perfect as mine was.
