    Getting married on April 22 (my parent's anniversary!) of this year. I can't wait, but I have a lot I'd like to lose before then! I'm having my dress made for me and it should be done in February, so I'm wondering how much I'll have to alter it before the wedding. I'm hoping I'll lose at least 20 pounds by then!

    I'm getting married March 17th, 2012 (St Patricks Day) Woooo wooot 74 days!!!
    I've been shredding for the wedding :) I work out at a gym but I wanted to jump start my fitness and weight loss so I've been doing the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred too.
    I LOVE this site, it makes me accountable for what I eat. I've told a few friends and my sister and they are lovin' this site too.
    We can do this ladies <3

    ok, how can I put that without coming off strange :)

    I am already married but getting married in about 7 month again....or I better say it this way, Chris and I had our court house wedding on June 2nd 2010 and will have our church wedding hopefully this year, if the army for once will let us have it. So far July 7th is planned and on January 14th I will go wedding dress shopping. I really really hope that this time the Army won't send him away again, but we won't find out until he comes home from Afghanistan hopefully before February is over.

    So if I can join I would really like to :)

    And now CONGRATULATIONS to everyone on getting married this year, soon or being already married :)

    I'll be mother of the bride on May 25, and hope to lose about 30 more pounds by then.

    My DH and I are taking a cruise in Oct/Nov to celebrate our 30 year anniversary - so I want to loose an additional 30 pounds by then.

    Getting married September 7, 2012 and it has been a great motivator! I started my journey 7 weeks ago today and am down 24 lbs. so far. I have a long way to go but I am feeling great and hope to lose another 30 pounds by the time I get my dress. I am loving this thread!

    Im getting married in June and looking to shed as much weight as possible. In a perfect world that would be 70 pounds. I'll settle for closer to 50 though. I can use all the motivation available to me!!!! So, ladies, feel free to add me as a friend. I am on here daily... really like the app. I am also doing a pilot program for a freind of mine's start up business. I get to consult with a nutritionist and have training help. I think all this might kill me and I am going to miss pizza terribly... but I am ready. Bring it!!!! :laugh:

    September 8, 2012!! I've added several of you so that we can help motivate each other, I didn't always put a message when adding with the exception of my excitement of having wedding date twins/partners :)

    Let's go girls!

    Getting married on October 13th, 2012! I am looking to lose 15 lbs (ok, it might be 20 after the holidays, but I am too scared to get on the scale!) before then. My mom was a seamstress, so she is making my dress - hopefully we can MAKE IT WORK (lol) with whatever weight loss I can muster by then.

    My fiance and I are running a marathon in May...i figure if we can make it through a marathon together, we can make it through just about anything!

    Yes! Yes! Yes! I'm getting married on October 27, 2012. I am an older bride (51) and am looking to weigh about 120 by then. I currently weigh 139. I won't be looking to try on dresses (and not sure about a traditional wedding dress since I've been married before) until April or May - just hoping to make a significant dent by then.... :)

    Im getting married in Mexico on the beach in 43 Days!!!! February 15th at 3:00. Ive surpassed my weight goal and I just need to maintaine and continue toning. I ordered my dress in a size 4 and when I picked it up it was too big(yay)! I have to take it for alterations on Jan 20th so I have a couple of weeks to get to my ideal shape and then stay there! Good luck to everyone and give yourself enough time to get to reach your goals in a HEALTHY way. Remember..he loved you enough to want to marry you, so regardless of the size you are on your wedding day..he won't care. :)

    Aww! You're so sweet.

    It's true. They really don't care. My future hubby has told me several times "We could get married tomorrow and you would still be beautiful. Don't get too stressed out over how you look. You're beautiful no matter what." =D He makes me happy, hehe.

    MEXICO!!! Dang, girl. I envy you. =D I'm doing a church wedding in Edmonton, Alberta in the fall.

    My wedding dress is an interesting story, though...two years ago, we were engaged and I had ordered my gown. It was PERFECT. But the engagement ended and I cancelled the order. We got engaged again and I went back to the same store, not expecting to find the dress...but it was THERE!!! And in the perfect size! =D It's meant to beeeee!!!!

    The dress fits and looks fabulous now, so I just want to tone up. I'm not going to fret about being 'skinny' or 'thin,' I just want to be fit and healthy.

    Hi ladies!!!! I will be getting married on July 31st 2012 in Ocho Rios Jamaica. I am really really excited. My fiance and I had been planning a big wedding for June 1st 2013 but with my extremley large family it started to be more about accomidating everyone else and taking away from the fact this is our day. So we moved the date up and decided that we wanted to be married on the beach with our close family. It will be Live streamed so everyone else can enjoy as we do. Than we are coming home and have a fantastic party to celebrate with our friends and family. I've picked out my dress but I am waiting a little while to have it ordered. I would like to shed 73 pounds by than, but I know that , that is a lot so I will be happy with less as long as I'm toned and comfortable.

    Congratulations girls!!!

    6 months , 28 days, 13 minutes and 29 seconds !!!
