Wedding Crunchtime Buddy!

[kafulmer]

I've got 87 days to fit in a wedding dress previously worn by two 18 year olds that were both about 20 lbs lighter and 10 years younger than me at present.  We're buttoning, but it ain't pretty.  I need someone to help keep me accountable as I do the same for them.  Any takers?

im in the same situation exept im getting married in a year. keep your head up and ask yourself everyday what your doing to accomplish you goals. then put it into action.

Good luck, keep your eyes on the price! I've got two months til we take engagement pics, and then 10 months til my wedding. I can use all the accountability I can get!

Hello! I totally understand how you feel! I am getting married in 45 days (Insert panic attack here) 

I dont have a dress yet because I refused to buy one before I lost the weight! (Were having a low key ceremony and the wedding will be 50's/rockabilly so finding a dress will be pretty easy!) 

Are you on my fitnesspal? Happy to add you on fitbit and there! Ive just broken a 2 month platue so I'm back to losing but still have roughly 18lbs to go till im at my comfortable weight!

Congratulations! I'm getting married in eleven days (!!!) and am in maintenance mode right now, but good luck...I'm sure you'll look great!

Thanks for all the support everyone!!!

I would LOVE to work with you!  I want to get into a certain size for a special trip coming up in 7 months and need some accountability too!  

What all are you doing to get the pounds off?

[kafulmer]

Yay!  Let's do it!

I WAS trying to tone up lifting heavy weights, which I think I will get back to after the wedding, but for purposes of fitting into these dresses in the next couple of months, I'm doing lots of cardio (I love Les Mills Body Attack) and I think I'm going to give daily hot yoga a try.  What are you doing?

[PhyllisB]

I had been doing Piyo and the 21 Day Fix, but then I fell and tore a tendon in my ankle. I have been lifting weights in the meantime while going to physical therapy, but am hoping to get back to some serious fitness AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

What about your diet? I have been trying to follow at least that while I am restricted. Water is the other thing I am working to get in each day.

Thanks for reaching out!

I feel your pain!  I'm also trying to shape up, and my upcoming wedding is a big motivator right now.  I've been going to different fitness classes at the local YMCA, and that's been a really fun way to work out!

I've got six months to try and slim down my mid section for my wedding dress! I love the dress but I look like I'm smuggling some lumpy pillows underneath! haha

Sign me up!

eeeeek I get married in 4 months 7 days and I'm trying to lose 25 pounds before then not only for my wedding but for the first time I want to feel good on holiday/honeymoon in a bikini!

any bridestobe want to team up?

[Chananigans]

I'm in! I have about 100 lbs to lose and 8 months until my wedding! I definitely don't expect to lose THAT much, but I'd like to slim down considerably by then. Also holding off on the dress until I lose SOMETHING. 🙂

I've got 15-20 lbs to go, engagement pics in 2 months, and wedding in 17 months. 20 lbs down since the engagment thanks to MFP and fitbit! Getting discouraged that its not going as fast as it did the first few weeks anymore 😞
