How is everyone getting on with the plans? Pleased to say we have the reception venue sorted out now it is a fab hotel. Ive started to look at flowers and stuff but there is soo many i havent a clue yet!!

FeelingFat · 10th July, 2008

Well done for booking your venue. I tell you that the time comes round so quickly. We decided to get married in August 2009 in February and I can't believe next month it will only be a year to go!

I good place to go on is www.forum.perfectweddingmag.com. Everyone on there is lovely and I have picked up a load of ideas.

Have you found your dress yet?

Hi, count me in. I'm getting married on Friday 28th Aug 09. I'm hoping to lose my excess weigh well in advance of the date and then stick at my target. Still a way to go but I'm determined to do it.

I'm making my own invites, in fact I've done the bulk of the work on the day ones. My step-mum is making my dresses, mine and my two bridesmaids - they material and patterns have been chosen and paid for already! It cost me a measly £115 for everything, much cheaper than buying a dress for me alone.

It's all soooo exciting - but very expensive

Fatty_no_more · 14th July, 2008

hey your a day before me.
Hows everyone getting on?
I start friday!

Gunna-make-it · 14th July, 2008

becky85 · 21st July, 2008

orangeblossom · 13th August, 2008

Hi! I was SO happy to find this forum - I'm also getting married in August 2009 and have spent the last two years agonizing about my weight - I managed to put on 4 stones in just over a year and a half and being only 5 foot 2, that is a heck of a lot of weight!

I am determined not only to lose weight, but to live a considerably healthier (and happier!) lifestyle too. Actually, if I am honest, I would love to know a lot more about food/nutrition/exercise ... but I figure I'm on the right track!

want2wearbikinis · 18th August, 2008

Hello and congratulations everyone! I'm hoping to get married Friday 14th August 2009! I say 'hoping' because it was supposed to be 2010 but we've both got new jobs recently and want to move the wedding foward to next year, which I'm VERY excited about!!! So I'm in the initial planning stages at the moment and really need to get a wiggle on coz it's less than a year now!

How's everyone getting on? With planning and weight targets?

I started Cambridge in Feb and lost 2 stone, and then moved house and the diet went pear shaped, and have messed around and put the 2 stone back on again GRRR feel so stupid now, but have finally kicked myself up the butt and have re-started today! And now even more determined coz will need to start dress shopping before christmas, which is scarily only 18 weeks away eek!

Aishling hun the CD is the Cambridge Diet, very similar to Lipotrim although more choice of flavours and products, and is available through local 'counsellors' who sell it and some offer advice and support too (varies from person to person)
