Hello! I'm new to MFP but I love it already. I'm getting married in March, 2016 and there's really no time like today to start a healthier life style as well as tone up for the most important white dress I'll ever wear! :p I'm hoping to be down about 30 lbs by the time of the wedding but I'm really moreso looking to starting and sticking to a much healthier and overall happier lifestyle. Looking for any and friends for support but especially for any future brides on here.

I used mfp years ago when i got down to my lightest so i have come back to keep be on track again. I want to lose about 30kg though. Congrats on the engagement =)

    Thank you! Congrats to you as well. I'm very goal oriented so having an actual date for my goal is helping me!

    Healthy and sustained weight-loss begins anew every morning.
    By starting now, you are both well on your way to being Fit and Healthy Brides!

    Congratulations :flowerforyou:

    Hello! We are doing the big wedding in March of 2016. I'm working to lose another 20 pounds before the wedding and would like some bridal friends on mfp!

    Congratulations! :]
    Regardless of how much weight you lose, you'll make a wonderful bride. It's fantastic to see you taking positive steps to get to your goal - MFP is a very good step! Wishing you the best of luck here!

    I'm getting married next May (2016!) I also started a more healthier lifestyle- ever before I got engaged. He & I both did actually! So far I've lost 20 pounds. I'm sad, because I developed adenomyosis just as I really got a routine down!! And ended up having surgery in June & was off for 10 long weeks. But I'm back at it! I found my dress & I'm hoping that I'm much smaller come February for the fitting!

    I'm on the wedding train, too! I'm 5'1", started at 126, at ~121 now, and am trying to lose ~15-20lbs more for my wedding next July. It sounds like a small amount, but because I'm so short, it feels HUGE and like it's going to take me a year!

    My other big goal is to get my body fat % down below 20%. I was 19% a few years ago (~110 lbs) when I was horseback riding 6 days a week (best exercise EVER, can't beat it) but am struggling to know what to do now that I don't have access to a horse to ride and don't have the time to do 3-4 hours of exercise per day :(

    I'm doing 30 Day Shred, a sort of modified South Beach diet, and cutting calories down to 1200.

    Feel free to add me!

    I am also losing for my wedding! I am getting married in January 2016 and I am hoping to lose around 21lbs. I already have my wedding dress which is a size too small, so I have to shrink to fit. Otherwise, the seamstress is going to have a big job!

    Any brides please add me it would be great to support each other.

    I set up a wedding 'dieters' group, if you think of a better name can always be changed!
