Speaking of dreams. I couldn't fall into a deep sleep the other night because I kept seeing the WL Forum pages in my head. Yeah, I think I need to lay off this forum for a while if this happens again....*LOL*.

I forgot the good news. As you see, I have crossed the 160 threshold. This was the weight I set for myself before I could even go to look at dresses. Bridal shops here I come...

I finally did it! I woke up at 5 am today and went running. It has been SO hard for me to do this, and it is the only time I have available to exercise since I have such a long commute. I am going to keep doing it, with you all as my witnesses! Also, I have managed to eat vegetables with every evening meal for a week now. This is such a good change. I want to increase vege intake even more.
Lemon: I can tell you, that at 160 lbs you'll look amazing in a wedding dress! That is what I weigh, and I was shocked at how flattering the right design can be to my figure. Good luck! I think wedding dresses make every woman look beautiful, no matter her size.

I am getting married in May 2009 so I want to be down to 120 by then! I am so excited and it really helps when I know that other people are trying to lose for weddings also. I also have to go to my fiance's cousin's wedding in June so hopefully I will have most of my weight off by then! Good luck everyone

How did u meet your fiancee and how did he propose??
Ooohh a fun topic Mine is a long story but here's the shorter version. Last August, I moved 12 hrs away from my family and fiance to go to school. My fiance set up a treasure hunt for me in my new home that included riddles, hidden clues, invisible messages etc. I am HORRIBLE at all of these things, not to mention that I get frustrated really quickly. He had it all timed so that I would finish FOUR months later (yup it was that complicated!) around the time I would be heading home for X-mas. The clues had lead me to a key that he hid in my place when I first moved. Anyways, in early December he drove 12 hours to pick me up and booked a cabin in the mountains for us to stay at on the drive home. While we were at the cabin, he gave me the "treasure chest" that my key was able to unlock. Surprise, surprise...it had an engagement ring inside. I was completely caught off guard. This is what happens when you get engaged to an engineer!!
Can't wait to hear everyone else's stories!!
snow: You are so right. Its amazing what wedding dresses can do!
Oh, and more good news! We finally set a date. You Americans are going to love this...July 4, 2009. And no, our colors are not going to be red white and blue! *LOL*

I met my husband at a techie company. He built the software, I built the applications. It was love over a Sparc screen, the ultimate of romantic locations.
Best wishes,

i went to highschool with my now hubby (we got married in august)...we became close when i was trying to set him up with a friend of mine and he was trying to set me up with a friend of his LOL
5 years later...as a Christmas gift, i took him on a weekend getaway to go golfing...on one of the holes, i hit a bad shot off the tee...he suggested i tee up another ball and try again, but i didn't want to...but he insisted...he even pulled another ball out of the bag and came to tee it up...he kneels down to tee up the ball, and i'm standing there rolling my eyes...then i look down and he's holding up a small box with a beautiful ring! i was so shocked! and he was so nervous he forgot to ask me to marry him haha...but i said yes anyways lol
planning was wedding was a huge challenge on our relationship, but i had the wedding of my dreams and now i have the best husband ever! being married rules!
