New!
 

Hi, I was lurking all day at work today and thought I'd join! I am trying to lose about 18-20 more lbs for my wedding (10/09/09). My dress is a dream but it's a little snug (okay, it doesn't zip up all the way, no matter how hard I pull) and I want to look perfect that day! I am 21, a college student about to graduate in December, and am really scared to start living in "the real world". I hope this board can serve as my motivation because I really need some!

Hey welcome :D
Im 21 and need to lose about 28lbs. This is the best place for motivation. You'll love it here
Good luck with your goal
:D

Welcome!! I'm also a "work-lurker"...it's great to be able to read such great advice, and I also find it super motivating.

Congrats on your upcoming wedding!! Sounds like you have a good amount of time to get to your goal, and look gorgeous on your wedding day. This is definitely a great place to start.

I lost 20 lbs for my wedding. It took me about 4 months. My dress fit me perfectly! I still have about 10 lbs to go, but I'm so glad I lost the weight. If you start now, you should have it gone by spring, and then you can get used to maintaining. Good Luck and Congratulations!

Hi Kelly! Congrats on the upcoming nuptials. And :hug: about not wanting to live in the real world--join us, none of us live there. It's too scary :D
