So, ideally I'd like to drop a dress size or 2 before the day. Does anyone want to join and 'buddy' up for support and motivation?

Hi Gonzo!
Judging my your username, we're the same age and in the same boat! I've been visiting the gym a few times and week and starting to see some results. I keep saying "Fat bride" to myself on the treadmill when I get tired!!
When's your wedding date? I've got til May 2015 to get rid of this blubber, but that does mean TWO Christmases to get through!

I hopefully will known the date for sure on Thursday! But it will be May 2014 so 6 months!!
I've got the my fitness pal app and I hope meal planning and moving a bit more will help!0 -
Me please!
I really need someone to buddy up with and motivate me!
How much do you want to lose? I want to lose 2 stone, wedding end of July xx0 -
I'm also on a diet for the wedding. So far I've lost 2 stone since about May-ish when we got engaged and still got a whopping 4 stone to go
I've bought a fitness tracker and been doing the Couch to 25k although now I'm up to 5 mins running I'm starting to find it quite difficult due to my asthma. I've also cut out most of the crap other than the odd take away.

Can I join ya guys? Our date is the 11th April 2014 !!! ekkkkK!!! so far my attempts have been foiled by the "naughty food" and "Don't go to the gym" fairies - mischievous beings they are !!A lot of fellows nowadays have a B.A., M.D., or Ph.D. Unfortunately, they don't have a J.O.B."0

Id like to join aiming for as much as i can. Dates 28th june, dress bought a size to small hopefully going to get it taken in. I tend to do well for a few weeks then fall of the bandwagon.0

I think about 20lbs to lose. I find it easier with a date in mind. Weigh in day for me will be Monday's.
I'm sure if I stop drinking so much the weight will fall off!0 -
Why are you all just running? Get some weights in there in addition - much better for size loss!
I would join you but I haven't been proposed to yet - booo!
Good luck everyone!
