Hi there! Anyone else getting married soon and trying to get sculpted? My wedding is in July. I figure I have a few months to get into shape, and then I'll hold steady at maintenance after fittings have started. Feel free to add me if you're doing something similar!

  • Congrats on the upcoming wedding!!! I'm getting married in November :) I lost twenty pounds last summer but slacked off during the holidays and gained almost ten back. How much are you trying to lose before your wedding? I'm shooting for 25-30lbs.. What are your plans for getting your perfect wedding body? :)

    Thanks, you too! Plans... that's a good question. :-) I'm on Day 4 of the 30 Day Shred and liking it a lot. When I finish that I'm thinking about working my way up to the P90X videos, but we'll see how this first month goes before I make myself any promises :-)
  • Awesome! I'm on day 5 of the shred :) hoping to work into doing ripped in 30 as well so two workouts daily. I tried p90x briefly and found that I enjoyed insanity a bit more. Made it through one week before I had to stop and move my whole house twice in a month! I'd love to go back once I'm in better shape, I love Shaun T lol

    I'm also a July bride (provided my fiance's visa comes through in time). My dresses are relatively simple in design and not terribly snug. I intend/hope to shed weight slowly but steadily until I reach my goal of 50-60 pounds gone. I expect this will take even after the wedding, but I'm okay with that.

    Congratulations to you both.

    may 21 is my big day and i am hoping to be at my goal weight of 121 which is 13 pounds, but these have been THE HARDEST to get off. I am on day 5 of level1 30DS and am starting c25k on tuesday so hoping to have weight off and toned somewhat by then :bigsmile:
  • I'm not getting married but I have been asked to be my friens bridesmaid for her wedding in March, I have just under 10 weeks to make a difference. Good luck to you all, I'm sure you will all look fabulous x x

    I am getting married in June and have been at this mfp/weight loss thing for over a year now. My sister got married in September 2011 and I was her maid of honor so I had motivation for weight loss that way. I still have a bit to go and then need to start toning up. I will probably do 30ds again after I lose some more lbs. last time I got more defined but didnt lose weight. So I want to get to a weight I'm happy with before doing it.

    Congrats everyone! My fiance and I haven't decided where we're doing our honeymoon yet, but if it ends up being somewhere beachy that'll be extra reason to stick with it :-) What is everyone doing so far to lose weight/get in shape? Mostly counting calories, or also adding in new exercise programs, strength training, etc.?

    I'm getting married May 27th, and when I tried on my dress it JUST fit. SO I am looking to lose at least 5 pounds, but I'm taking this opportunity to really get in shape and get down 10 pounds at least from my current weight. I am on day 5 level 3 of the 30 day shred, and I've seen some great results! I've lost 3 pounds and gone down an inch in my bust, 2 in my waist and 1 in my hips. Hoping to keep it going and maybe do ripped in 30 next.
