Wedding Wedding and Weight loss

[HeadOverHeels4James]

One of my friends is getting married and wants to lose 20 pounds and I thought it might be a fun topic for this post...how many girls are trying to lose weight for their big day? If you are, how much?

I''m trying to lose at least 30 pounds for our wedding. I used to be a vegetarian, and when I gradually added in meat again, I gained about 30 pounds in the past 3 years.

My plan is that I''ve gone 100% vegetarian again (Day 4), and go hopefully (almost) vegan within the next 3 months. ( wedding is in May 2009)

There is an ongoing BWW conversation on this topic.

I don''t have a date set yet, but I''m trying to lose weight regardless (so is my FI)...I want to go down at least a dress size, preferably two...but my first goal is to lose 5 lbs by August...wish me luck!!!

I''m studying for the NY bar exam right now and I''m trying so so so hard not to give into all of my urges. I want to finally feel comfortable with myself (I haven''t since I started law school, almost three years ago).

I tried to get into shape since my dress was showed a lot of shoulder, arm, and back. I didn''t lose weight.

5-10 in fat would be nice or gain more muscle... I really actually need to be working out... I''ll start again next week hopefully and then I can tone up!

I''d like to lose about 40lbs. I''ve already lost 18.

i''m trying to lose about 15 lbs, but not for the wedding, for the honeymoon. i think i look okay in my dress at the weight i am, could look better, but whatever. i just want to be able to wear a bikini! the last time i was 15 pounds under what i am right now i was probably in 6th or 7th grade, so it''s only a guess that that would be enough to make my bikini dreams come true.

if i don''t lose the weight i''m not going to be heartbroken. i''ve been on a diet for the past 12 years, so i have realistic expectations of what i can do in six months.

I want to lose 9 lbs. sorry if that seems like a strange number but I converted from kgs.

I started working out and eating healthier about 1.5 weeks ago and have lost 2 lbs, but that is insignificant because it can be easily gained back - too easily.

I also have a year in 3 months but ideally I'd like to be down to my target weight within 3 months and then maintain for the next year, but that's going to be so difficult.

I hope to loose about 10 lbs. I have about 3 1/2 month. Considering I haven''t done anything yet to accomplish that goal (bad, bad Jessi), I don''t know if it''s realistic. If only you could loose weight by typing, i would be in excellent shape!
