lose weight for the wedding

I’m getting Married in May 2009 and I need to loose at least two dress sizes before then. I’m not really sure where to start and with the holidays starting now it will be harder than ever…

I want to lose about 10 lbs for my wedding which is in 78 days (but who’s counting?) or 11 weeks. That sounds doable right?
Reasons:
The capped sleeves on my gown inspire flashbacks of the tricep chub that was my bat mitzvah.
Bathing suit shopping at Target yesterday revealed a pretty gruesome picture of my legs…not an issue with a full-length wedding dress, but certainly an issue for the honeymoon in Hawaii that follows!!
The Approach:
Now that school’s out I have much more time to exercise and prepare healthy meals for me and Erik. Also more time to plan…which many times is the hardest part. We’ll see how that goes!
Thanks for reading!

I’m getting married in October and I need major help! I am 5’5 210 lbs and I want to get back down to my high school weight 150-160. I got a promotion 3 months ago and gained 16 pounds! Im having a hard time just getting motivated because I get so discouraged that I cant do it. I need someone who wants to motivate each other or help me do something to lose this weight. Ive tried so hard but nothing works.

I am getting married August 30, 2008 and I really want to lose weight and get fit but I am having a hard time doing this on my own, I need support but I can’t afford to go to any weight loss or fittness clinics. Does anyone have any suggestions?

WE NEED TO MOTIVATE each OTHER!!! I wanna see some progress notes up here… I am 5’4 have an 11 month old baby and I want to – no I WILL loose 40 pounds before my wedding… I weigh 180 now… AND I WANT TO BE HEALTHY FOR MY WEDDING AND MY HONEYMOON… The BMI scale says I’m OBESE! I’m marrying the man of my dreams and I want him to be proud and giddy to have me on his arm!

I’m getting married in August. I would like to lose 25lbs. I walk at work about 40 min. I also count my calories but the scales not budging any advise?

I have a while to go before my Sept. 2008 wedding but I’m starting my weight loss now! I’m around 230 and want to get back to my high school weight of 140.

One of my dreams is to make him cry when he sees me! He always tell me how beautiful I am, I want to take it to the extreme for my wedding day. I want to see a tear or two roll down his cheek! :)

I’m not doing anything special to lose weight but working out & trying to eat right. Any suggestions or ideas to keep me on the right track?

I was already small but I had bought a UK size 6 wedding dress as I’d ordered it from US and I was confused about the sizes so I ordered it too small!! Left it till the last minute to lose weight, I lost about 9lbs in 2 weeks!! Not the healthiest way to go about it but at least I looked good in the dress!!! haha

My fiance and I got engaged about a month ago, and decided on a summer 2007 wedding. YIKES! I am about 5’8’’ and 240, and was about 190 in high school. (what happened?!) So, 50lbs in 4-5 months sounds intimidating, but I think I can do it. I want to get the all popular strapless gown, and I’m too scared to let my chubby arms be seen in public, let alone all of our family and friends!

I’m going to try to go to the gym at least 3 times a week, depending on my schedule. I have a full time job and am also a full time college junior, so I am going to work extra hard to accomplish my goals. I feel trapped in such a tight schedule, but I REFUSE to even THINK about looking at ordering my wedding dress until the chub is gone!

Alright girls…..I’ll update in about a month to trakc my progress…cause everyone knows starting is the hardest part!!

I’m 5’6”, about 205 pounds last time I checked a couple weeks ago. I’m down from my all time high of over 225, but I’ve gained about 10 pounds over the past 5-6 months because my fiance and I moved in together and his eating habits are horrible!! I find myself trying to cook and have things on hand that he likes, but it doesn’t help my figure at all!! I don’t even have a dress yet, so that’s not a huge deal, but at the same time, I want to look sooooo good in my dress!!! Well, i guess I’ll update as time goes…maybe in a month.
