    Sounds like a great idea! I'm in!

    Congratulations to everyone, and thank you for all of the awesome posts so far! It's nice to know I'm not the only one trying to shed some pounds before The Big Day. My wedding's not until 9/29/12, but I figure if I start early, then I'll be ready to go before I hit the meltdown stage!

    Good luck to everyone, and congratulations again!

    NSV! Tried on my dress for my mother while she was visiting this weekend and it felt distinctly looser than last time!

    Alright - I know yesterday was weigh in day... so here we go...

    Oct 30th - 166lbs
    My Goal - Jan 1st - 156lbs

    Even though I am doing a lower goal - this will be a challenge for me - obviously I have the holidays like everyone else, but I also have a trip to Scotland (currently working on my work out plan for the trip). I will everyone luck and I love that we are all here to hold each other accountable!

    Huge news! My earlier post about assuming I'd be getting married next year is now TRUE!!! He popped the question (with a GORGEOUS ring) on Monday! I think we're doing a "just us" kind of wedding, and I'm thinking in March, after the holidays/my birthday are out of the way. Don't want the anniversary getting overshadowed every year.

    Now, I have even more motivation to get in shape. WOOO!!!

    I was hoping I could find some fellow brides out here. :D My wedding is Sept. 29, 2012 and I want to look and feel healthier for my wedding day. I'm excited to start this challenge with all of you. :P Good luck!

    Current weight: 218.5
    Goal by Jan. 1: 203.5

    On a side note, does anyone have any good ideas for thanksgiving/christmas? I don't want to sabotage myself , even though I LOVE holiday food. :)

    Congratulations! You must be soooo excited! Enjoy every minute.

    You can do it. You have over a year, so it less than 2 lbs a week. Capitalise now on how excited you are and the early results will pull you through.

    MY DRESS HAS ARRIVED!!!!

    Now I'm scared that its the wrong size, because...wait for it.... I've lost more weight than I thought!!

    I was worried I wouldn't be able to lose much weight, so I bought a dress that fits and now I've lost over a dress size. They can take it in, but I'm worried they won't let me lose any more - and at the rate I'm going I can lose at least another size. AGGGHH. WHy didn't I believe in myself?????

    Hi all! Just found this thread and this challenge is something that I desperately need, not necessarily for loosing a lot ( I really only need to drop around 5 lbs to make my dress more comfy!). I bought my dress and it fit with little alterations in a size 10, now i have the challenge of keeping myself relatively the same size for my september 8,2012 wedding!
    Current weight: 149
    goal in Jan: 144

    Hello ladies! I am getting married in September 2012 and really want to have reached my goal weight of 135 months before that. I'm trying to get down to that before i even try on wedding dresses so that I don't have to get it altered!

    CW: 152.8
    GW: 135

    Congratulations everyone! Let's do this!
