Hey! I was looking for other women who are planning on getting Married this year or next who would like to be MFP Buddies!

I am getting Married on June 19, 2010, and my goal was to lost 105 Lbs by the time I order my dress. I was planning on ordering in January of 2010. My starting weight here on MFP was 285 and I am currently down to 270.2. So i am down almost 15 Lbs in 5 1/2 weeks!

What are your goals?

    I'm not a bride, but I wanted to say good for you and keep up the good work. My first goal is to get down to 200 pounds. Right now I weigh 309. I have a long way to go, but slow and steady wins the race.

    There are lots of future brides on here.
    You may want to look at the Wedding Challenge thread.

    I'm getting married 92 days from today (May 23rd)! I won't be able to get anywhere near my final goal by then, but I'd be happy losing 15-20, which I still feel is kind of high for the amount of time I've got left.

    HI! I am an August 20, 2010 bride myself and have found the dress....
    When I started a month ago I was at 235
    Goals- By April 200lbs
    By August (measurements for dress) Size 14 again (first time since h.s.) Whatever that weight ends up being....

    I need to get some smaller goals in there too I know, but it just seems so HUGE right now and I've had a couple crappy weeks. What do you do to keep your motivation up???

    first of all congrats on your upcoming wedding.....secondly, I got married in May 2008. I bought a gorgeous dress, it was actually sized 22 or 24. I had to have it taken in, to fit me. The seamstress told me that on that coming day, I would look as beautiful as I felt inside, as beautiful as I wanted to be. I really took that to heart. I didn't look or question my size of the dress, just went with it. I mean heck yeah I wanted to be my pre-pregnancy weight, look like a million bucks and all that jazz. But my wedding was great, I had a great time, my husband thought I was the best bride ever. So, to make a long story short......your husband will adore you no matter what size you are. You still have over a year to get ready. Just make yourself happy, don't get sick over the whole thing.:love:

    April 2010 Bride here! I hope to be down about 75 pounds by then. My first goal is 20 lbs down by May. (My company is doing a biggest loser thing and that when it ends) Good luck to all the other brides out there... I know I'll need it!
