Hi. I am 38 and 100 lbs to lose. Are you starting a challenge group?
-
I will tell you my experience. I was losing weight really quickly and then when I ordered my dress, I ordering one that zipped but was too tight. This was only 4 months before the wedding and ended up being a huge stress for me when I didn't need it. I didn't lose the weight and gained a few pounds, because I was training…

My fat lazy cat has figured out how to work her food ball by laying down and rolling it with one paw and then shimmying the food to her mouth with the same paw.

I'm curious, as to how your dress fitting went. Hope all is well...but don't stress too much, it can be taken out if you need it to, especially if it mostly does up. I was married on March 9th and my dress fit. They actually had to take it in with some darts around my breasts because it was big there. I think though that…

My dress was Alfred Angelo too! Very beautiful, I like the beading on the top.
-
Did you get your dress yet? I'm curious. My dress that I ordered in October was supposed to be in by end of Jan, it didn't come in until a 3rd way through Feb, 2 weeks before my wedding. The shop I ordered from is great. It really depends on the designer you're ordering from, they are generally making your dress to order.

Black pants, black shirt and a tie that I will go and buy for him. That's it. I think his groomsment are going to wear black pants white shirts and black ties.

I use the Lululemon Ta Ta Tamer and it works great for me for running and boot camp. It holds me in tight and I don't look like I have a uniboob. They are expensive but I bought 2 of them 2 years ago and they are still in great shape and they both get washed A LOT. I am working out 5 to 6 times a week.…

I use dvd's for my strength training but since you have a gym membership. I recommend looking at some magazines like Oxygen or Women's health. They normally have some great workout routines that will target different zones. I've done it in the past with a series from Oxygen and it worked great.

It's true I had "that" feeling. Hard to explain but I do warn you not to try on over your budget. I did and I ended up buying over my budget because I had that feeling but was fighting with the cost in my head. The one thing I did was try on 6 dresses with all different fits and styles to know what I actually liked/felt…

I agree. My mom keeps wanting me to add more details that she thinks don't cost that much, but $20 x 10 plus tax, or $2 per person adds up. Then keep adding more and more it gets outrageous. She even told me that she would buy flower centerpieces for my tables. I said no, because I'd rather her help me pay for what I want…

I'm doing the same thing. I have 6 women in my bridal party, and they all can wear their own black dress that they are comfortable, actually my one good friend will be wearing a pant suite. They'll look great. I am thinking about making some kind of hair fascinator to tie them altogether.
-
Lot's of time! You can do it!
-
Holy moly! That's gorgeous!
-
You might be pushing it. I ordered my dress in November for my wedding March 9th. That was pushing it. It will be in for the end of January so that will give me enough time for alterations, however I was pretty close to having to pay an extra 5% to have it rush order.
-
Good luck! 2 lbs a week is a fairly realistic goal. I'm hoping to do that for the next 5 at least. I will have to behave myself. :bigsmile:
-
I am having a bigger bridal party than I ever thought I would but that is not to say that I think you should have one. You should have exactly what you want, no less no more. It's really not a big deal.
-
I knew it was the one because it was the one where I felt, gorgeous and grown up. Which is what i was looking for. I loved it and I did like other ones but I couldn't really picture myself in them.

- I just made my invitations using 2 kits I bought from Michaels on sale for $19.99 each. I spent some time working out the fonts and wording and printed them out myself which did take a lot of patience but hey they are wedding invites they are fun. - For wedding favours I'm going to make sugar cookies that look like…

My dress is too tight! I didn't want to order a larger size and have to take it in, so I ordered the same as the sample that is too tight. It zips, but breathing is optional right? LOL! My wedding is March 9th and the dress comes in on the 25th of January. I"m nervous because I haven't lost the weight yet. I can do it. I…

BTW, the logo for this group is super cute! It caught my attention.

Hello, I'm 5'1 and I definitely find it a challenge to keep my metabolism going and keeping my calories low enough to lose the weight. I find that I have to work out A LOT and eat lowish calories to lose any weight. It's a lot of work and I don't know how your mothers do it because I don't have any kids yet. One of the…
-
Absolutely! It's our wedding day and we all deserve to feel beautiful! We will no matter what size we are!
-
This is great information! I think everyone has covered it but I wanted to mention that when you get outside to exercise in the winter, it helps keep the winter blues away and it goes by so much faster! Before you know it, spring is here.
-
Fantastic! I am getting married in March and you are a great inspiration! Congrats on both your marriage and your weight loss!
-
Well to the group!
