Hi ladies! My name is Krystyna (or Krys, or Krissy) and I'm 24 days and 8.4lbs into this journey of healthy living and weight loss. I have about 50 or so pounds to lose (I do not intend to attempt losing ALL of it before the big day) and I'm trying to keep myself motivated. I was doing really well earlier this year (92 days and 16lbs down) but I lost my mojo after a massive career shift.

I'm getting married April 12th, 2016 to my man of my dreams. We're getting married on our tenth anniversary in Santa Barbara. ☺️ I'd love to find some other ladies with short term goals to go on this journey with. Any other brides feeling the pressure like I am?

    Yep me!!!

    Have 5 kilos to lose - ordered a dress a size smaller, so the pressure is on. Have to admit I am sick of salad and weighing all my food out!

    Luckily my dress fits perfectly now after losing eight pounds - I was too afraid to order too small, since the dress was discontinued! You can do it!

    Thanks @KrissyMuree - I need to get out of the mindset of the kilos and go by the tape measure! Given I am doing a lot of weights fat is turning into muscle so of course the scale is heavier.
