    I got engaged in March and we set the date for June 2016. HOPEFULLY enough time to lose the weight (hopefully about 50 pounds) and keep it off in time for engagement photos and all the parties up to the big day!

    I have until October 2015 to lose about 50-60 pounds. I just restarted my journey today. Last summer I lost around 25-30 pounds in about 6-7 months and was feeling great and got so many compliments. I don't know how I let it happen but all of my hard work is GONE as I gained every last pound back. I am so upset with myself.

    Would love to lost 10-15 by November as I have a wedding to attend.

    Would love to lose additional 10-15 by May 2015 as I have another wedding to BE in.

    Would love to be at goal by October 2015 to be the bride. UGH.

    I haven't even bothered to start wedding dress shopping yet.

    We all seem to be in the same boat. Just got engaged and wedding is set for August 29th 2015 (13 months). Looking to lose about 50 lbs..i'd even be happy with a solid 30 gone. Trying to keep on track as best I can because i've been told I need to do wedding dress shopping about 8-10 months prior (so about November this year)....it actually gives me anxiety right now.

    One helpful hint I have found so far is everytime i am feeling weak, like i can't go any further on a machine or want to stuff my face full of fatty foods i look down at the ring and think about all the pictures that will be taken that day and how i want to look at them and feel good about myself not criticize the roll of arm fat or double chin.

    I also have started carring around a water bottle with me everywhere and anytime i have a temptation i finnish the water bottle first and then re-visit my temptation..every now and then I know I will cave but that i life..as long as I can get back on track afterwards.

    I plan on getting married in Early September 2015. It is a destination so I don't just have to be wedding ready, I need to be bikini ready. Please add me!! I have about 30-40 pounds I would like to lose. I have been doing p90x for a little over a month since getting engaged, and started tracking my calories last week. Haven't weighed myself yet. Kinda scared... I just want to be a beautiful bride. Please add me!! Thanks for all your support.

    Feel free to add me as well. I'm getting married sometime in 2016 (no solid date yet), but I'm hoping to lose a bunch of weight by around Christmas next year so I can try on dresses and stuff and be able to try on the samples. Best of luck to everyone! :)

    We got engaged two years ago--I have been wanting to lose weight but instead I keep binge eating and gain weight! I am not motivated which I should be! Our wedding is in two months from today!! We are going to mexico for our honeymoon and I am actually freaking out about not fitting in my dress. My dress can not be taken out or have fabric added so I need to get going on this. Any help would be appreciated. I am not one for crash diets but I fee like that is my last bet.... HELP!!!

    While it is nice to have a goal, what are you going to do after the wedding? Think in terms of the rest of your life. Make lifestyle changes that are permanent!

    Good luck ladies and congratulations!

    So the weekend did not go as I planned. My diet...well let's just say, there was no diet.

    Back on track today...hopefully it won't happen again... I still feel "blah.."

    8/15/14 here (11 days to go!!). Wish I had the endurance for 5 hours and a movie! I'm more at 1.5 miles and an episode, lol. Do you plan to keep the same level of activity after the wedding? I've been doing Hiit most mornings before work, I might dial it back a bit but I'm loving my early morning work outs!

    I'm getting married in May 2015 and I'm sweating for the wedding! I would love to have some muscle definition in my arms by then! I've never been able to get rid of my "wings". Fingers crossed I can set down the french fries for the next few months!

    Feel free to add me, March 2015 bride!

    I bought my dress back in February and that was really the catalyst to get serious on MFP. I ordered my dress two sizes smaller than I was at the time and the sales woman thought I was crazy. Six months later and 15lbs down (also put on a good amount of muscle), the dress came in and it is too big! If I can do it, anyone can!
