I'm feeling a bit like an emotional blender! Today is exactly 3 months until I say my vows! There's still so much to do - I'm excited, nervous (that I'm not going to have made the fitness progress that I wanted!), and a little stressed (b/c I'm running behind on a few scheduled To-Do's) It's mostly all excitement, with the…

You might be a runner if you & your fiancee decide to run a marathon for your honeymoon! (It's our first ever marathon, as well!)

I met my fiancee in a wedding party (I was Maid of Honor and he was the Best Man). We'd never met before then, but the night of the wedding, he knew that I was the girl he was going to marry. That was last April. Last June, practically asked me to marry him. We wanted to get to know each other better (meaning that I took a…

Yesterday: 2.5 This morning: 5.25 Monthly total: 13.35

Well, I got to check off another biggie on my to-do list....ordered the invitations! Of course, my goal was to get them sent by this Friday, exactly 3 months to the date.....but since I was late in ordering them, they will be late to get out.... But I guess that gives me a few more stress-free nights to go to the gym,…

Forgot to check in with yesterday's distance: 3.4 mile Sunday 5.6 miles total - need to get in gear!

Yesterday: 2.25 for me....not as much as I wanted, but it was an easy day! Monthly total: 2.25

How can I join?! I'd love to get in for 50 miles this month! :happy:

My profile picture: It takes 4 weeks for you to see your body changing. It takes 8 weeks for friends & famil7 and It takes 12 weeks for the rest of the world

YAY! I'm glad that there are more first-time Marathoner's!

I guess I'm not considered a runner! I never liked or enjoyed running until recently! My fiance & I are training to do a marathon on our honeymoon, in January. We completed our first 10K race this past weekend, and in spite the heat & humidity, we still finished it faster than we projected we would! Not quite a distance…

Melted into quinoa! It's nice substitute to mac & cheese, in my opinion!

Check with the boutique to be sure -but I'm sure that they'll be understanding & work with you!

Alterations can work wonders! If you find something you like, you have enough time that you can hold off on ordering (see when the latest you can order the dress and still get it in time for your wedding)...that would give you more time to see how things here go.

YAY! MFP Brides!!! I can't believe that I haven't found this thread sooner! I'm getting married 10 November 2012 (Get it...10/11/12 :laugh: ) My overall goal weight puts me back down to my college days (and those jeans that I miss so much!). But for the wedding, right now, I'm focused of toning up my arms for my strapless…

I would be up for the challenge!

I want to know as well!!! I am a Size 10 and still have these beefy arms! I've been working on weight training and have slowly started increasing weights, so hopefully that'll help? I've got a nice little circuit of lat pull-downs, incline presses, tricep dips, bicep curls, and a few others that I'm blanking on. What's…

Anyone needing some MFP support, feel free to add me! I'm always up to adding more motivational people here! :smile:

Any way to have or find a workout buddy? I'm working on training for a marathon, and it has made a WORLD of a difference to have my running buddy meet me at the gym each morning...it gives us a chance to chat, burn calories, and motivate each other! The days that she teleworks, I feel a HUGE difference...I usually don't…

But we have a recipe builder - Use that. You can select the ingredients and servings per recipe, and it's right there in your tracker! That'll get you into the habit of measuring/weighing everything you make and determining the appropriate protion size. Hope that helps some! :smile:

I'm always welcoming to new motivational MFP friends! Feel free to add me! I really do enjoy hearing about everyone's daily victories! :)

I find that both the gym equipment AND MFP are WAY off! I'm solidly on the "Heart Rate Monitor Bandwagon" here! I have one (with the chest strap) and it has been an invaluable tool! You enter your info (weight, age, gender) and since you wear the monitor, it's calculating actual heart rate output, versus the estimates that…

Hello & welcome!!!! I'm always up for more MFP friends! I check in each day & really enjoy seeing everyone's progress. So, if you like to give & get feedback, feel free to add me! :)
