  • All such pretty dresses. I have my first dress fitting on Saturday and I'm excited! My dress story is a happy one. I live in Texas now but am originally from Virginia. I was at my parents' house for my cousin's wedding. My mom wasn't interested in dress shopping when I asked her. But, we happened to be passing by a Bridal…
  • Keep me in. Was late to report, sorry.
  • This wedding stuff is so expensive! To save money, I got invitations kits through Michael's that was fairly reasonable. http://www.gartnerstudios.com/ You print them yourself. Seems cheaper than the wedding divas or those companies that print for you. I also looked up that you can get them printed at kinkos or something…
  • Hello again, everyone! How's the planning going? I was sick the past week - I hate this time of the year. Excited about this challenge that's keeping me accountable. Also for fun, my fiance and I are having a first to lose 10 pounds takes the other out to a sushi dinner competition. So wish me luck! :)
  • Yes! I had a dream where nothing was picked out and none of my bridesmaids were there and I felt so unloved and disorganized.
  • I love Donna Karan Maximum Control Signature Sports bra. http://www.barenecessities.com/donna-karan-maximum-control-signature-underwire-sports-bra-35137_product.htm?pf_id=DKIntimates35137 I'm 36 DD and looks like it comes in 36 DDD I ran a 5 miler in it with no pain and good support. I first tried it on at Nordstroms but…
  • I don't think anyone's planning on ballooning back up afterwards and this site is geared around lifestyle change, not fad diets. All of us are months away from our wedding too. We have a date to prepare for and serves as good motivation instead of feeling like we have "tomorrow" to start eating healthy and working out. I…
  • My dress fits now too. I figured I can reward myself with getting the dress taken in if necessary. Even though I'm confident I will be smaller and stronger on my wedding day (and actually already since I bought my dress) I didn't want to add any unneeded anxiety and stress about my self image.
  • Started it today too! Plan to try and stick with it, even through Christmas.
  • My tidbit of motivation: I've really enjoyed working out on the elliptical. It's been great having time to myself to relax, reflect and lose some weight. I bring music, a kindle, and a wedding magazine and run as a way to unwind and feel good. I'm up to 60 minutes 3 times a week, burning 800 calories. With the holidays…
  • Bride to be here too! Support is great, especially during the holidays and the stress of planning a wedding. So much more stress than I had imagined it would be and I tend to be a stress eater. 4/28/2013 here!
  • It sounds like you got a sweets craving or were still hungry. I've found instead of sitting there thinking about how badly I want that cookie to the point of obsession and breaking, it's good to eat something else. If I have a sweet craving, canned fruit works for me. Or 90 calorie ice cream bar. Something that doesn't…
  • All the cute clothes from BCBG outlet that would look perfect if I were a medium or small. And, as everyone's said before, skinny jeans. Oh yeah, and my wedding dress!!!
