Hello everyone. I haven't posted a message in a while but the big day is only 11 daya away now and there has been so much to get done! I have still so far to go until i reach my goal weight but i have lost quite a bit in time for the wedding. I think it was the dress! I bought it too small so i had to fit into it and last week it had to be taken in would you believe!! Well i wish you all the best and anytime anyone wants to chat......

| I must be one of the lucky ones, but so far I have not experienced ANY wedding stress. I know I am marrying the right man and sliding a wedding into our usual Christmas Eve bash wasn't too tough at all..so far pretty stress free. Keep your fingers crossed.

Hi Rainy
speaking of details nailed down....lol... I went to Chapters last night and looked at wedding planning books...minimal of $30 for a good one. I think I'd rather spend that on flowers ortowards the photo guy.
We're doing a small wedding maybe I won't need one.

Hiya!
I'm getting married on December 2nd this year. I've been well stressed and not achieved any of my diet goals so far but trying to knuckle down now. The good news is the wedding is nearly all sorted!
Good luck everyone,
Rainy x

Good luck Liz, it will be super to have someone else to commiserate with as the date draws closer.
Remember what Yoda says
There is no try.....
But I'm in the same boat, motivation and staying in the now seem to collide

|
| I'm December 29, 2006! Good luck to all. I just started and I'm hoping 4 months is enough time to achieve my goals!

Wow December must be almost as popular a wedding month as June. Welcome aboard and good luck with your goal to fit in that free alterations dress!
I can't decide on a dress or elegant pant outfit, like a feminine tuxedo.
I don't want to even think about it until the first 15 ppounds are history!
Luckily I have a sister in fashion and she can help find me something FAST.

Hi Ladies,
I'm a December bride as well...December 30th down in Savannah, GA (I'm from there, but live in NYC). I'm trying to lose 50 pounds by then.
I have my dress, and they will do any and all alterations for me at no additional costs...I want to test them on that :)
I'm always looking for a buddies to help me with this...
Have a great day!
Sarah

| Just wanted to drop in and say hi to all my fellow December brides! I'm also a December 16 bride-to-be (saw a couple of you on here) and want/wish/need to lose 50lbs by then. I'm going on a long 9 day cruise after, so that's even more incentive to drop the pounds... And no, I haven't even LOOKED at dresses - scary!

Welcome to the new joinees!
Congrats Sharon on having a dress, (lol) and that it fits. I still have to decide what to wear, then find it, not looking foward to that at all.

| Another December 06 bride here. We're getting married on the 7th in the Mayan Riviera, Mexico and I'm really hoping to shed some of the "access" I've been carrying around lately. Uggghh.

Hi everyone. I am feeling much better this week, feeling much more motivated. I tried on my wedding dress yeterday and it almost fits! ( i deliberately bought it in a size smaller to give my something to aim for) My mother advised against this but its really working! Hope you are all doing well.

I'll support your goals Linda, keep working away at them and post regularly, I'll work on mine, reply and we can feed the positive energy right back into our programs,
Yoooohooo

| I am new here too! I joined for my December 17th wedding in Hawaii. I am trying not to try on my dress until I get to the size I want to be...so I figure I actually need to lose the weight by September 30th to give time for alterations! That means I need to really kick it in gear! I want to lose 15 lbs in less than 10 weeks. I am sure if I try - I can do it. I have never exercised a day in my life, so that will be the biggest change.

Nicky!!!
I want to lose about 25 pounds by Dec 16th wedding but mainly for our Puerto Vallarta honeymoon, small world.
Hey who're you marrying, better not be my sweetie!!

| I am getting married on December 29th and I have at least 10 lbs. to lose, I would love to lose 30, but who knows if that will happen. My dress fits great now, but I said as long as it is getting taken in I will pay for alterations! It is a lace up back anyway, so all you have to do is pull it tighter! I look forward to my wedding day, but all I don't want to be is a fat bride! So, if anyone else is going through the same thing I am, I know what you are going through! I work out everyday and I eat great, the only thing I have a problem with is protein! I hate pretty much anything with protein in it, or at least a lot of it! Anyway, I feel like all the work has not paid off yet, I hope it will soon! I have been regularily working out since January...finally I didn't go back on my new years resolution!!! For the December brides out there, we have something to look forward too, and that is not eating so much through the toughest times of the year...HOLIDAY SEASON!!! I am getting out good low calorie recipes now to try them and hopefully talk my family into trying them!! Good Luck Brides!!!

| It's 10 pounds a month, and even if I miss it by 10 pounds, the dress will still zip...hahahaha. I think it can be done and done in a healthy manner.

Hi Everyone,
I am getting married December 30! I need to lose 50 lbs by then...I am probably being unrealistic but darn it, I don't want to look like a big white whale up there! Any ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Many hugs,
Terri

| Oh no, don't let that happen. Just take it slow and change your lifestyle. Don't think of this as a diet, because really it's not. I'm getting married on Christmas Eve and have a little under 50 pounds to lose. I have no doubt that I am going to get there and you will also.
