Rep Power: 84 | | Good luck to both of you, both for the weight loss and the wedding.
Just a note...I too tried to lose weight for my wedding (oh, a gazillion years ago)...
I lost some, not as much as I would have liked, and continued to 'grow' after the wedding.
Remember, if you're serious about getting the weight off, AND keeping the weight off, it's about more then just the number on the scale come wedding day.
It's about changing those things in your life that caused you to gain weight in the first place.
Take small steps, but drink a bit more water, eat smaller portions, choose not to hit the fast food places, etc.
Make choices you can live with forever and weight won't be an issue ever again
Again, good luck and congratulations |

Rep Power: 0 | | I'm also getting married, but in October.
Welcome Elysium_Dreemz, Bride2008, and the rest of the newbies...I am new here too! I found a thread on this board just for us brides if you want to join me over there. I feel I need as many friends on the same page as me as possible! http://weight-loss.fitness.com/off-t...o-support.html
My goal is a little grander since I am going to be on display and I'm sure you can relate to that. I need to lose 46 MORE pounds before October and firm up too. Any helpful tips and advice will really be appreciated, plus maybe some fun stories about the planning you're doing! |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
