Hi, I'm 29 and getting married in 4 months. Is anyone else out there also trying to get in shape for their wedding and honeymoon? I don't want to just crash diet to look skinny in my dress, I want to get healthy and happy. I could really use some encouragement!

    I'm not getting married, but have very recently gotten married! I managed to lose quite a bit of weight before my wedding, not as much as i wanted though which was disappointing. Unfortunately I have put it all back on since the wedding :( Now that i don't have the incentive of the wedding to make me try hard, I'm using the long-term health benefits as my incentive.
    Good luck, and enjoy the next few months, it goes really fast!!

    Hi, im getting married in November, but would like to be in at my goal weight for August.
    At the mo my goal weight is 140lbs, but as i cant remember being less than 160lbs, it might be too far.
    Good luck, feel free to add me

    I can't remember being 160 either! My current goal is my Driver's License weight, which is 170.

    Hello all,

    I getting married in December in Jamaica and i just want to wear a bikini comfortably. I know its possible. i quit smoking 6months ago and curbed my impulse eating. Since I have been on MFP its has helped tremendously, tracking what I eat and my activities. Im concerned bout all this wedding stuff tho. I dont think I the typical bride because I really could just have a nice flowing dress barefoot on the beach. My fiance on the other hand lol.

    Take care and best wishes to you all in gettting this done, its different with a coutndown too!

    I'm getting married at the end of April. I'm 5 foot 5 inches and currently weigh 220 (the most I've ever weighed in my entire life). I really want to lose weight before my wedding and I want to continue to lose weight after the wedding. So I'm trying to have a healthier lifestyle in general, but right now my wedding is my big motivator. I'm not sure what is realistic in terms of a weight loss goal I can reach before my wedding. Any thoughts? Or tips? Anything would be appreciated. Thanks!

    I'd like to be in shape at your wedding, so that I can look really slutty and score with a hot archaeologist, so I'm going to used the same in-shape deadline as you! <3
