Shredding for the wedding

Anyone else in this boat? I'm getting married September 26 next year and would like to lose almost 30 lbs, hoping this is doable. I need other brides/motivated weight loss friends to keep me on the right track, as I've tried and failed before. I think getting into my dream dress is all the motivation I need. Feel free to add me and offer any tips you may have. Xo!

30lbs in one year is quite doable. And it doesn't have to be painful either. A moderate caloric deficit is all you need. Read these links for the specifics >>>

ETA: I was thinking this was one of those "I need to lose 30lbs in 2months" threads. But if you start now with a healthy diet and both cardio (for fat loss) and strength training (for muscle retention and definition) you will look awesome in that dream dress.

Excuses??? http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2014/06/02/the-no-excuses-play-like-a-champion-challenge/

If you have 75+ lbs to lose 2 lbs/week is ideal
If you have 40-75 lbs to lose 1.5 lbs/week is ideal
If you have 25-40 lbs to lose 1 lbs/week is ideal
If you have 15 -25 lbs to lose 0.5 to 1.0 lbs/week is ideal
If you have less than 15 lbs to lose 0.5 lbs/week is ideal
