in Introduce Yourself
Looking for some more friends who are either bridesmaids or brides in 2012? We all want to look fabulous and feel amazing in those dresses!! I've got about 23 pounds to go until I reach my goal weight, but I'm starting to get scared because I'm approaching what I like to call "my hurdle" I've never been below "my hurdle" since, well I can remember.... elementary or early high school maybe?? I always get stuck at this point and tend to get frustrated and give up....
Let's keep each other motivated!!

    I am not getting married, but I know a few things about fitness and nutrition. If you care to share what you are doing maybe I can help you kick it into high gear.

    I was a bride once... so I know how it can be... but I do event planning and wedding photography (in Chicago area)... the day should be about you and your love with your partner, not whether you lost those last few pounds... I promise you, everyone will be more into your love

    I got engaged two months ago! We have not set a date but we are thinking fall or maybe even spring 2013. Either way I have a lot of weight to lose!

    Hi Everyone! I am getting married in July this year, but I am not even worried about that I am more worried about looking my best for the man of my dreams on our honeymoon in Jamaca!!! I wanna fit into that bikini so I can have the best time ever and not worry about feeling fat!

    July 2012 - Vegas Baby! :)

    Already have my dress but I remember it being a bit snug...and I know I gained a few lbs since then so I definitely want to lose a few inches before the big day!

    I need all the motivation, feedback and advice I can get!

    Hey there! I'm getting married in May this year. I definitely understand the desire to look my best in the dress! I just recently got past my own mini hurdle, a weight I haven't been below in over 2 years. I'd be happy to support and help you in any way I can. :)

    How cool would it be to get all of you who are getting married or those of you in a wedding, together in one private group on facebook. I already lead one and would love to do a specific wedding group.

    Let me know if you are interested and I will send you more details.

    Getting married on 9/2/12. I've lost 5 pounds so far and looking to lose at least 10-15 more. Not sure exactly what my goal number is, but I'm only 8 pounds away from not technically being overweight, so I'm going for that first. I understand what you mean about the "hurdle", though. I'm getting there myself....

    Hi I'm the mother of the bride... so I have been on MFP since May 2011 & have lost around 55 pounds (25 kilos or so)
    My daughter is getting married in March this year & I still have 17 pounds (7 kilos to go) I'm really trying to get down to 65kilos but have hit a stumbling block & cant seem to lose anymore weight.
    Good luck with your journey

    I'm getting married August 5th! And I want to lose those pesky "last 10" (maybe even 15?) by my final dress fitting.

    Currently working on re-setting my metabo, which I stalled out by eating too few calories while burning up to and over 5000 a week. Who knew less isn't always more? So I'm kind of maintaining right now, under the strict tutelage of my nutritionist, but I hope to be back in losing mode soon.
