in Introduce Yourself
I'm wondering if any of the other brides out there would want to keep me motivated. My wedding isn't for a year and a half so it is easy to say, "I have time to lose weight later, I'll sleep in this morning.."

Help!

    Hi! We just became friends, and I'd be happy to help support you. You are so right about it being easy to say "I have time..." But I stand here as an example of someone who did that and now I am running out of time. EEK! I have about 20 lbs till my goal, but I'd like to at least be down 10 more lbs by my wedding. I am happy to support, encourage, and cheer you on! :)

    I am getting married 8/2012. I would like it if we could help eachother get motivated. My goal is to lose 15-20lbs before my wedding. Exercising and eating right has been an issue for me. Working a full-time job, a part-time job, being a full-time mom to a 14 month old boy, and going back to college makes it hard for me to have an energy and/or motivation to exercise. I know that if we all help eachother we WILL do great!!!:happy:

    Hi! getting married 9/2/12. I've been slowly getting back in shape since October, but I've only lost 4 pounds so far. It takes a long time, so I definitely recommend starting now! I'm hoping to lose 10-15 more before the wedding.

    No firm date but sometime in 2013! i want to be maintaining my goal weight for at least six months to a year before my wedding. that way, the lifestyle becomes second nature, and my body is in great shape just because it's getting everything it needs! once that happens, it's a cake walk (wedding cake that is....:laugh: ) i also figure that if i lose it all now, i will be WAY less stressed before the wedding as it gets closer. planning can be stressful and i go to school and work, just as a lot of us do, so any eliminated stress is awesome. :happy:

    And congrats! :flowerforyou:

    September 2012 here!!! I've actually been on MFP for a year and a half now but got less disciplined over the holidays :-( and gained three lbs.

    My ultimate goal would be 139 lbs but even at my most disciplined I couldn't seem to get under 145. So if I weigh between 139 and 145 in September I'll be very happy :-).

    I'm a September bride! I'm hoping to lose 20 before the big day... I just started a week ago and the first week the weight just flew off at a loss of 1.8 lbs. I know its going to slow down so it's going to be tough. Let's do it so we can all be proud of our wedding pictures for the rest of our lives!!!!!!!!!!!
