in Fitness and Exercise
So I recently got engaged and while I've been on this health and fitness journey for the last year I am MORE than determined to work even harder and look BANGIN' in my wedding dress!

I bet there's lots of brides on here doing the same, so why not do it TOGETHER!!! Add me, message me, or respond here. Either way, be my motivation/workout/healthy eating partner as we count down the days until we say I DO!

    Can I join the club? I love matrimony talk. I have a long distance BF and I am prettttty sure I am being proposed to in April. So that whole wedding "thing" is a big motivator for me!!! I want to elope, so preparing for the engagement is pretty much the same as preparing for the wedding.

    yay! :)

    I am! I have 2 years to look smokin' hot in Mexico. I've been engaged for 3 years already (we decided to buy a house first). I'm in a wedding in August, so I'm hoping to be at my goal weight, which is 40lbs down. That way I can maintain for my wedding.

    Count me in!

    The big day is October 4, 2014, and I have about 25 pounds to lose. My fiance says he still thinks I'm sexy (this is how I know he's a keeper), but I'd like to get back to where I was when we met. I've been "trying" the last couple months, but I'm really knuckling down now, and I would love some support as well!

    A good friend is getting married in April and I want to look good for her wedding. Her wedding is in Arizona so I won't be wearing heavy clothing. Maybe slimming down will open more dating options for me. :-)

    Wedding dress shopping in 2 months, getting married October 4th.

    I've been on here a long time and though my weight it up and down, my body has transformed and I am still 3 sizes down from where I started. My goal is to feel/look good in my dress, not hit a number..

    Working extra hard the next two months to cut a bit more and show what lifting has done for me!

    Hi There! I too am sweating for the wedding! I am trying to shed about 30-35lbs for my wedding in fall 2014. We don't have an exact date set. We got engaged on June 26th of this year but we decided to buy a home first before spending all of our $ on a wedding. I'd really like to get down to a healthy weight for my body to set a good example for our future children.

    I'm not getting married soon, but we've set the date. It's 23rd July 2015.
    Since I started on here in January I've lost 28lbs (it fluctuates a bit but I did get down to 119lbs!). So I'm at my weight loss goal, and am now moving on to the fitness side of it.
    I've started running, and have my first 10K race in 10 days (eep!) and I've rejoined the gym, and have started doing yoga classes and a bit of ab work to get more, you know, tight.
    I suppose any exercise is better than none, but does anyone ever feel a bit overwhelmed about what to do for which body part??

    Aww, it's great that he still thinks you're sexy at your current size, but it's about how you feel too.
    If you would feel happier and healthier at a lower weight or smaller size then go for it, and he'll still think you're sexy then too x

    I totally am! We are getting married on the 20th of July 2014. I already have my dress but have not started fittings yet...those start in April and I am DETERMINED to be down to my 1st goal weight by then. 19 pounds to go!!! Technically I don't care about weight as much as I do inches, but once I have lost 19 I will be in the mid healthy range for my BMI so it is the goal I set myself!

    I AM!!!!! I started hardcore dieting Monday January 7th. I use to be so good at watching what I ate and worked out a lot more. I realisticlly need to loose about 15 pounds for my wedding. I am not bad but I am a little too thick for my petitte 5'1 frame. So the wedding really kicked in the motivation. My date is July 3rd and I have a lot of time. I want to look great for everything not just the wedding day. I want to look good for the bridal shower and my bachlorette party.

    What are your goals?
    Do you have rules?

    For example, one of my rules at work is stairs only!! My Goal is to be active at least 5 days a week. So gym 3 days and maybe yoga at home the other 2 days. This week I only did 4 days but next week it is on.
