Are there any other brides to be out there?

Not a bride but a bridesmaid with the bride putting alot of pressure on me. Would like to drop about 20lbs or better for June 9th, I think its do-able but I'm having a hard time managing my diet with a very picky husband, working full time and going to school.
Anyone else getting family pressure or pressure from the rest of the bridal party to shed?
ohh that makes me sad she's pushing you like that. you shouldn't have to change for anyone but yourself. my girls are all shapes and sizes and i love them all! i picked out a number of bridesmaids dresses and let them choose individually which they'd like to wear...so now all of my girls have different dresses. they are all just built so differently and i wanted them all to be comfortable in what they were wearing. plus there's always someone who doesn't like the dress the bride picks out, so i figured let them pick and get what they actually like. they know what looks good on their body type! it sounds like your bride is sort of a bridezilla...i'm very sorry. if i were you i don't think she'd be a good enough reason to get my butt in gear...her nagging is only going to make it harder for you to stay on track. would she be understanding if you talked with her about it? maybe she's not that important if she's making you feel like you're not good enough to be in her wedding at your current weight??0 -

I'm the same I've been told I have to lose weight for my friends wedding in May, both her and her mother have told me to! I know I have a few extra pounds but I am thinner than both the bride, her sister and her mother, so I don't think they should open their mouths!!!!0 -

I will be getting married 7-11-13. I'm not happy about the lack of choices and the looks you get going into a bridal shop and needing a size 18. I hope to be down 60 lbs by the big day0

I'm getting marrried August 11th, 2012. I ordered a dress slightly smaller than I should have at the time (waist and hips were larger than my actual, bust were smaller) I hope to lose 30 lbs before then, but I'm pretty realistic on the marathon that is weight loss. I hope they have to take it in a bunch... and I'm ok with that!0
