    I am not going to an event per say, but going to the beach. I went last year and hated being in a suit at the pool and beach. I did not want to wear shorts, and I'm not going to be that person this year. I read a quote I am remembering when I don't want to exercise... "This summer you can be fit or you can be jealous." I have logged for one week straight and I've been exercising since January. I'm aiming for June. Only four months, but here we go!

    @ravanhorn
    Great quote! Love it and am totally printing that and putting it on my mirror.

    Aside from health reasons and sick of not fitting into anyyyyy cute clothes any more, in October I'm going to Europe for the first time with my husband (our honeymoon... A year later lol!) and I want to actually take pictures and remember it. I hate having pictures taken now because of how I look so I want to change that by then :) almost halfway there too! (Started back in September)

    I'm a soon-to-be-bride...getting married in August.

    I'm happy with my weight (7 lbs less wouldn't be bad, but it's no biggie), BUT I am working on toning my arms and upper body. Dresses these days are revealing, and it's going to be a hot day!

    Bridesmaid here!! Super excited. I was already on a lifestyle change mission when I was asked. Hoping to drop a dress size....even two before November. BM dresses are relatively flattering but I would really like to tone my arms/shoulders also.

    Hello, everyone!

    How should we do this? Should we stay accountable weekly? How about every Saturday?

    Opening weight:

    Weight: 78.5 kg

    Goal: just to head on down! 60 kg.

    If you guys are into it, we could post what we are now and weigh have our first weigh in on

    SW: 210(in 2009, this has taken me a while)
    CW:145
    GW: 140

    I am close to goal but then need to add muscle!! I am 5'7" so 140 will put me in the middle of my healthy BMI.

    Count me in :) I'm returning home to visit and to be a bridesmaid at my big brother's wedding!

    It will have been almost two years since I have seen any of my friends and family, which is proving to be the big motivation - add to that the fact that I'll be in a one shoulder dress as a bridesmaid at my only brother's wedding and well, you can imagine how focused I'm feeling!

    Height: 160cm / 5'2"

    SW: 90kg / 200lb (2012)
    CW: 67.4kg / 149lb
    GW: 61kg / 134lb

    "Due" date: 17 June 2016

    I'm losing weight for health reasons, but it's my grandmother's vow renewal end of March so I'd love to drop a dress size by then :)

    I have a formal to go to in May and I'm trying to lose 30 pounds for it. We should help motivate each other. We can do it. Feel free to add me :)
