Wedding Diet Thread....

I have decided to rejoin Slimming World on Wednesday (was going to join this week but my car decided to need £400 spent on it).
I want to feel good when I start trying on dresses, so at least a stone this year would be good

My offical weigh in isn't until tomorrow morning - but I had a quick weigh in on my old scales and it wasn't looking good, think i may have put on again but we will see tomorrow!

I was away for the BH (NI only) last weekend, as ate and drank too much but did do lots of walking!

I have 7 weeks to go... Finished for the summer holidays and all the pressies I've been given are chocolates! Which are yummy but this week has been very unhealthy. I'm going to try and keep as many chocs until after the wedding. It's hit me now I need to be good! I weight just over 11 stone, am five foot ten, and I'm fairly slim (on good days haha). I'm not worried about losing weight, I've tried and nothing works, to me it's a number and that's it. I just want to feel and look slim, so think I'm going to have to use every piece of willpower I have this summer! Eeeek!

When I first started cutting out rubbish foods (don't like the word dieting!) I was just over 11 stone and I'm only 5ft 3in so I reckon you probably look pretty slim.

Where or what are you 'problem' areas; can you work on toning them up instead????

My weight gain always goes to my face and I can't really hide that no matter how many scarves I drape over myself; the ageing hippy look is not one to be recommended:o

How are all the other dieters getting on? I weighed myself this morning and have stayed the same, well, I put on weight a couple of weeks ago, but I've lost it this week so overall stayed the same.

I'm the same; am constantly losing and then gaining and then losing the same ruddy 2lbs; most frustrating.

I've got about 6 months until the wedding and need to lose about 7lbs in that time. Easier said than done as I'm finding...

Weighed in Saturday morning - no gain, but no loss either! Hopefully this week brings some loss

This will sounds silly, as we almost have the whole wedding planned out, but H2B bought my engagement ring at the weekend, so going to be telling my parents soon (I'm hoping on Sunday when they come to visit us).
So, I really want to be a size smaller when I start trying on dresses, which I figure will be about a stone.
Joining Slimming World on Wednesday, and figure if I do a steady 2lbs a week, I can start my dress hunt in September, does that seem realistic?
I walk to work every day now (35 mins each way), and also hoping to add in 2-3 5 mile runs a week.
FIngers crossed!

Sounds good to me wannabemrs I'm
In a similar boat to you. Have been really struggling lately to shift anymore weight though so starting the clean and lean kickstart diet today. Fingers crossed!!

Think a new start always helps.

I realised that I need the shame of someone else knowing I put weight on rather than it being between me and the bathroom walls

Very exciting news about your engagement ring by the way! How lovely, how long have you had to keep quiet for? Dunno if I could have done that!!
