It's amazing what you can do when you have a white dress to fit into.

I reckon it's doable...good luck to you :-))

Be honest with yourself about what you are eating and your calorie burn from exercise and it is very doable.

Log your food and exercise religiously. Measure and weigh your food portions. Maybe get a heart rate monitor that tracks calorie burn while exercising. Drink plenty of water. Exercise at least every other day but make sure you have one day a week to rest. It may sound counter-intuitive but eat back most of the calories you burn through exercise. You want to eat close to the calorie goal MFP gives you each day including eating back most of your exercise calories. Eat breakfast every day. Eat three to six meals or snacks a day.

You can definitely do this and in 11 months their jaws will drop when they see you in that perfect wedding gown...cue the wedding march.

Completely doable. I would suggest setting small goals for each month. Keep in mind, weight can flucuate so don't beat yourself up if one week you don't lose a lb. Also, make sure you are eating enough and keep in mind eating less does not turn into losing more. Below is a link that will help evaluate you against MFP. Keep in mind that this site is only as good as your inputs that you provide. For me, I found this had me short by 200-300 calories. This could have been my mistake with the inputs I put in. Below is a good link that will put you in a great range for your caloric needs. Also, I would highly suggest you get a workout program that incorporates 3 days of weight training and 3 days of cardio. Programs like p90x, chalean extreme, insanity, turbo fire, etc... have all help. In fact, p90x helped me for my wedding.

Also, keep in mind, when you are within the last 20 lbs, it will become more difficult to lose weight. At this point, i would suggest looking to turn fat into muscle (overall decresing your body fat). This approach has worked for me. I personally could care less about my weight because even at a heavier weight, I am tighter and smaller in the waistline. I have more weight in my lower body and chest/arms. I am currently at 11.75% body fat. Over the past 90 days, I only lost 5 lbs but I did lose 3% body fat. With that, I lost 6" (2" in my abs, 2" on my waist & 2" in my hips). Please check out the links below for good informaiton and good luck!
