Anyone else losing weight for a special occasion in September!

I’ve lost 25.5lbs in the last 20 weeks and have 18lbs left to shift in the next 17 weeks! Finding it hard to keep it up now!

How are you doing?

    Hey! Congrats! I’m also getting married in September. I set out three months ago with a goal to lose about 19 lbs by then. I’m currently about 1 pound away (but I know I’m going to have some tough weeks of travel/socializing/eating and drinking ahead, so I don’t quite consider myself nearly finished yet). It get harder as you get closer, and the weight is slower to come off - but it’s totally doable. Each time I feel like I’m losing motivation, I think about how I want to look in my wedding dress.

    Thanks I purposely order a dress based on the size I was 8 years ago when I was my target weight. Every time I want to fall off the wagon I look at the dress photos!

    Good luck with the next few months. Weddings are definitely the best motivation x

    I think maintenance is a bigger challenge
