Bride to be l 2014 challenge

shellystar23314 · 10 July 2013

Hello

Im getting married in 2014 March and im looking for a buddy to help me along!

I really need to get rid of 2 stone like so badly! Ive had no luck what so ever at losing this weight getting out of 14's is killing me... If i had someone to kick my bum i may get there!

my target weight is 12,13 just coz its 2 stone!

Any other brides wanting to join in?

I'll join you, I'm not a bride to be (although I am engaged), I'm also having a hard time motivating myself and I'm a similar weight to you so maybe we can egg each other on

I will join you, I want to loose at least 3 stone before my wedding in April 14, I have lost 1 and a half stones so far but weight loss seems so slow. I know they say its healthier to loose it 1-2lb at a time but would like to see a few bigger losses!

Hi all,

Im getting married in July next year

I actually had SW recommended to me by a woman who owned a bridal boutique - apparently she sees it work some miracles. Im hoping to lose 1 1/2 stone by October (12 weeks) which is going to be pretty hard going for me. But i think i would like to slim down before trying on dresses. Worry i'll hate everythign if i'm not happy in myself. How do you guys feel about trying on dresses? better to wait until some weight has dropped off? or just go for it?!
Oooh and good luck with the wedding planning!!!!

I was a size 18 and about 10 months post-natal when I first tried dresses on, I had a few bad experiences where some of the sales staff were down right rude, also most shops only carry one or two smaller sample sizes for you to try on and then they order your size. I was mortified when they were trying to squeeze me in size 8 & 10 dresses telling me how fab I would look in my size, all I could see was the bulges

, they wouldn't order my size unless I was committed to buying it and put a deposit down. Then I found a dressmaker who made me feel immediately comfortable and designed my dream dress for the fraction of what the snobby bridal boutiques wanted to charge me! I cannot wait for my final fitting! Defo recommend having a bespoke gown made

Hi all! I hope you don't mind me posting in here. I'm getting married in June 2014 and really want to lose about 5 more stone before then (though that might be a bit too optimistic but I'd love to be at least 2 stone lighter by November/December so that I'll look better in wedding dresses when I start trying them on!)

Every time I feel like a binge I browse the web for wedding dresses and that usually gets me back on track. I haven't tried any on yet, I want to lose some weight first as I don't want to try one on, hate myself in it (or bulging out of it!), give up and ruin my optimistic state of mind, which generally tends to happen when I see myself in a dress that looks nice on a hanger but not on me

shellystar23314 · 2 August 2013

Fatladyslim · 2 August 2013
