Hey Ladies!

I thought it would be a great idea to start a Bride To Be 2012 Challenge!. This is were we can update each other on how we are feeling, and of course are accomplishments! So here's the first challenge: 15lbs by Jan 1, 2012!! That's 7.5 lbs a month! Every Sunday we can post our weigh in. Once we hit Jan 1st, 2012! Our next 2 month goal will start. I'm open to any ideas, whether its lbs lost, miles walked, or just staying within our calories.

Current weight 205lbs
Goals weight by Jan 1st: 190lbs

Good luck to my girls!!

Love ,

Lisa

    Hi Lisa!

    I have less than 15 to lose, but I'd love to be a part of this :)

    Though I'm only set up to lose .5 pounds a week since I'm so close to my goal--I probably won't reach it before January :)

    Current Weight--146.6
    Goal Weight--135

    I'm getting married June 9th, 2012--so I hope to reach my goal early next year and maintain from there.

    I'd love to be apart of this challenge.... although we dont have a wedding date set yet, and I've got at least a year based on us wanting to get married in the cooler months of the year. But If I could get to my goal weight prior to a possible wedding date and maintain it, that would be amazing!

    Current Weight--205.2
    Goal Weight--190.2

    I'm in a Christmas Challenge as well, and that one's to lose 20lbs by Christmas... which could happen, just need to stay focus and determined :)

    Hello everyone!!! I am getting married 5/11/13!!!

    I am totally obsessed with the scale so I had my teenage daughter hide it and I am not allowed to have it back until Thanksgiving morning.

    My current weight is: 281

    Since I have so much to lose I am just taking it 10 pounds at a time.

    January 1st goal weight : 266

    I'd love to join also! I am getting married next April (and honeymooning on a cruise) and I am stressed about getting to my goal weight in plenty of time to do some shopping! This sounds like a good way to push myself to lose as much as possible before the new year!

    My current weight: 163
    My goal weight: 135
    Weight by Jan. 1st: 148

    I'm in - wedding on 24th Feb, so the first 15lbs is my big target. Are we starting this Sunday or does this Sunday's loss count?

    I need a signature....

    GREAT! And congrats on your engagement! I too am working on losing weight for my wedding next June :P Honeymooning in Hawaii and I want to wear one of those cute Victoria's Secret bikinis that say "Bride" on the butt in sequins...and do not come in big sizes!
    Add me to the list!

    I'm in! I'm going to set my ideal weight loss in that period as 8 pounds...I've tried getting started really aggressively before and it always backfires on me. I get frustrated if I'm not doing as well as I want, and when I'm frustrated I'm much more likely to backpeddle. I also just broke my foot so I can't exercise for the next 3 weeks, so have to be realistic! My goal is 30 lbs between now and August, but I'll be really happy if I can get it off well before then! Glad to be participating with you all...

    Current: 156
