    I'm also losing weight for my wedding, although I have a bit less time to prepare than the two October brides and the September bride. Initially my wedding was October 20 but we decided we didn't want to wait that long to get married so now we're getting married on August 11 - less than 90 days away!

    How much weight are all the brides trying to/planning on losing??

    Oh yeah, I plan on keeping the weight off and continuing to lose/tone post-wedding I am just using my wedding as a short term motivator to keep myself going.

    I am a big fan of green tea of any sort, particularly Lipton's Superfruit green teas. Mhmm so good!

    And coffee. I love coffee.

    Congratulations to all the brides! Know that you don't diet alone. MOBs and MOGs diet too. My son's wedding is the Saturday after next and I'm 6 pounds from where I want to be on that day. Don't think I'm gonna make it, but I should be close. Best of luck to all who are losing to look fabulous as they make that big walk down the isle!

    Hi...I am trying to lose and tone as the mother-of-the-bride. My daughter , her fiance and myself are all focusing on losing and toning...my daughter is not needing to lose but wants to keep where she is as they altered her dress quite tight at the waist. My future son-in-law has lost around 40 pounds and I am down about 12....it is such a great goal and has inspired us all to be healthier and the great thing is that because we started a few months ago and the wedding isn't until Sept 2 , we are actually changing our lives in the long run, something we can keep at after the wedding as well..I wish all you beautiful brides success and much happiness!

    MOG here. Wedding is Friday evening, 05/18. Joined mid-December 2011 and have lost 20 lbs. Bride, groom, sister, niece, MOB, etc. have all joined as well and were the reason I first became aware of this fabulous site.

    Shopping for a dress was much more enjoyable than I expected, since most of the dresses I tried on actually fit! (Except for the cleavage factor--but that's another story, as I've had a problem in that area since high school.)

    I'm definitely not done yet, because my goal of losing 25 lbs. was just my first goal. I want to become more fit and strong through exercise and if a few more pounds fall off in the process, that will be a good thing.

    Yup, got engaged October as an obese person. Now, I'm a normal bmi. Wedding is in April 2013. I want to tone up and be a fit as possible so we can both start the next chapter in our lives fit, happy, and healthy!

    Not to be the big downer in this thread... but what are you all going to do after you get married?

    You shouldn't be dieting, you should be changing your habits... it shouldn't be short term thing, but rather a lifestyle change.
