    Yes and no.... Not my own (I got married this last July). :)

    I'm getting in shape for myself BUT my cousin is getting married in October and I haven't seen my moms side of the family really much since my mom passed away in 2003... And I was big big back then... So I'm hoping to be at a noticeable difference by October when I see them all at her wedding.

    We were going to get married this year, but pushed it back for finances. But it definately motivates me to push harder

    I'm sweating for my wedding too. Originally our date was 15 November 2014 but we've had to cancel. I'm not too bothered as it gives me more time to get my weight under control. I want to feel good in my own skin. So not just for my wedding, but for my life. We have been together for years and have struggled for 5 years through infertility. I'm hoping that losing weight might improve our chances of having a little family of our own. I've only been tracking thru mfp for 9 days and it's helped greatly. Feel free to add me too. Would love to meet others who have the same goals like me.

    SW: 105kg (231 pounds)
    CW: 103.1kg (227 pounds)
    UGW: 60kg (132 pounds)
  • I am also trying to lose weight for my daughters wedding in November 2014. My goal is to lose 25 pounds.
  • Good luck! I know it's hard to get out there and get your but moving to lose weight. I'm trying to lose 35-40. I wish I could just snap my fingers.

    Hey I'm Kerry from NZ. I"m also sweating for the wedding... well not so much sweating! I'm not a huge fan of sweating my butt off at the gym!
    I'm got 40kg or 88lbs to loose before our wedding in March 2015! Cant wait, am so excited :)
    I wasn't going to loose any weight for the wedding but I thought why not! This is probably the only thing that has really motivated me to loose weight. I've even found a dress that looks perfect on me as I am but nope, I've decided I'm going to loose the weight. I want the shock factor hehe

    Good luck ladies!!

    Congrats! I'm getting married on the 5th June. :-)

    Heyyyy good day!! :-D My birthday! Does being a bridesmaid mean I'm sweating for the wedding? It's just not my own! My husband and I are in some good friends' of ours wedding in the Dominican Republic in June. Dress is ordered and was stupid to have ordered a size smaller! (It was only 1/2 inch smaller than my actual measurements, so I thought psshhh that's it? I can lose that off my hips in no time!) So now it's time to hit the gym and get sweatin!!

    I'm going two-fold here. My best friend from college is getting married 9/13/14, so I definitely want to look good when I go to that and then my man and I are looking to get married in the next year or maybe 18 months. (no set date yet)

    Question for you. If you plan on dieting and losing weight....when do you start buying your dress?!?
    I'm puzzled. I was a nice tulle skirt and top. I have to order it online but I'm wondering when to pass
    my order.

    I started losing weight Jan 13th. Already very loose in my size 18....

    What are you doing? When are you buying?

    Hi Ladies!
    So good to see this huge group of motivated women! We seem to all have our eye on the prize~ that stunning pose and photo on our day!
    My goals are lofty, ill admit... but I am really just trying to change my habits.. I have bad habits.. trying to make them better..the better habits im trying to focus on.. drinking more water, log everything I put in my mouth, and rethink my choices and just simply eat less!

    Eating less is my biggest downfall... my portion sizes are out of control.. its not what I eat, its HOW DAMN MUCH! lol....I wont be gentle here.... I know this is true, I watched myself yesterday in fact... I started making a small salad,,,, started with a cereal bowl size, but after adding all the fixin's I was hungry for, it was almost a mixing bowl size!! WHOA~~~
    I dumped half into a different bowl...I couldn't believe I did that....

    Its all about habit... I eat good food...just too much...

    what are your habits you should break?

    I am the same exact way! My dress fits really well (a little bit snug but it's fine), so I am hoping to lose weight and look amazing while still fitting into my dress :)

    I'm getting married October 11, 2014. I already bought my dress, but needed a size 14. I'm a pretty big girl even when i was in shape. The lightest I've ever been was 150 and a size 8 jeans. Right now I'm rocking a size 12 pant. I'm really just looking to tone up. I'm never gonna be a size 2, but maybe just a size 10? with no back fat or arm jiggle?

    I'm getting married on September 4th of this year. I have put on 50 lbs in two years, with the most of it being since july. I started working out and getting back to better eating habits a week ago, and I have lost 5 lbs and some!
    I am only 5' tall so my ultimate goal wait of 95 is fine. Realisticall though, I am hoping to be between 110 and 120 by September :)

    Congrats to all you lovely ladies!
