Hey guys! I would love to join this group as I have a close wedding to attend on April 19. I know that doesn't give me much time but I would like to lose as much as I possibly can before that time. I started out at 183 and am now at 179.

Thanks for the support guys! My niece had her third birthday this weekend, and I was so nervous about the food (hot dogs, chili, chips, cake, and ice cream!) I am still new to my weight loss routine so I am still very tempted by bad foods. I did good though. I ate before the party and was able to say no top everything. Every time I look at my wedding dress, I am motivated to work out. I want to look smokin in that thing!!

Snow,

We are pretty much in the same exact boat!!!
weddings at the same time, and about the same amount of weight to lose.
Lets do it girl!!

Totally! I wish I could start exercising this week, but I am sick (again!). I swear, every time I try to start a weight loss or work out plan I get sick and am thwarted. I'm doing the best I can though to watch my diet and calorie intake to make up for it for now.

have you gotten your dress yet? now that I have mine I know exactly what parts of my body need to be toned.

believe it or not I hated vegetables up until about 6 months ago. I started forcing myself to eat them so i could lose weight. I make two different kinds with dinner every night so i feel like i get to eat more with hardly any more calories! You can find any kind of workout video you want on youtube, so I have been experimenting with all sorts of stuff. its fun! I like belly dancing videos.
any other ideas?

Hey Gals,
Great club idea. I'm sure there are a lot of us out there. Especially when wedding dress sizes tend to fit smaller than regular dresses! LOL!

I'm getting married in the summer of 2009. I want to get rid of a bit of weight. It definitely can make finding sample dresses on sale and consignment gowns a lot easier. There are a lot more smaller sizes than larger ones. And I need the money... the more money I save the better! I graduate from grad school a month before the wedding, so money is tight. I guess the less money I spend on food, the more I can spend on the dress!! Sounds like a good trade off.

Best of Luck to you all.

I have not gotten my dress yet. I wanted to wait a few months to see if I lost weight, but it's only 5 months away so I think I had better start looking. I can have it taken in at the last minute, hopefully

I need to do better with vegetables. I hardly ever eat them. I like them, but just never cook them. Belly dancing is SO fun. I went to a class once--it only had one session, bu it was still really fun. My cough is practically gone now, so I'd better start exercising! You have inspired me with vegetables. I am going to eat some every day now.

Linzee. I love your dress. It looks perfect on you. Screw the "hot bridesmaid" you were definitely one "hot bride"!! Who's the designer of the dress? Is it satin with a chiffon overlay? It right up my alley.

TIP: Buy a dress with a corsetted back that fits as you are now (not done up too tightly). You can easily bring the dress in a size by tightening the corset ties. This way you can minimize the amount you might need to take it in. This is my plan if I end up finding a dress I really want before I am finished losing weight.

ya that dress is really pretty!!

my biggest thing to stress about for my wedding is planning it from so far away. I am having a destination wedding, so I have to pick all of the table linens, plates, etc. over the phone!! i hate that! otherwise, it will be easy (0nly 30 people attending).


does anyone else have family members/friends that are not sympathetic to your diet? My future sister in law is going to be my maid of honor, and she says she wants to lose weight too( she's about 200 lbs). The trouble is that every time I visit her, she wants to get fast food or coldstone or something.

its frustrating! Im like "you know I want to lose weight, so stop trying to get me to eat bad things!!" I think it makes her feel better when she eats unhealthy foods if someone else is doing it with her.

any thoughts?

Hey all,

Congratulations on your special occasions. I am in the same loop. My wedding is on July 12, 2008 and I am desperately trying to shed 40 lbs before that....

I have a hectic schedule on the job so I hit the gym in the morning and workout for approx 60 mins of cardio everyday. I am trying to maintain a diet of 1200 calories also. But I am ashamed to say I cheated today Didn't gym at all and feeling really bad.

I need all the support cos when it comes to motivation my cup is always empty. Counting on all you guys....H E L P!

Cheers
