Hello! Been on Jenny Craig for about 5 days now - just weighed in this morning and I've lost 7 pounds! Too bad it can't ALL come off that fast! Anyway, I'm getting married Sept.29/07 and I need to lose about 70 pounds by April so that I can go dress shopping, I'm gonna need major support if I'm gonna pull this one off - so if anyone wants to buddy up, I'd greatly appreciate it. Good Luck to all!

that's great for your first week!!! keep it up!!!
i just went gown shopping, and that's definitely a motivation!
good luck!

guess i'm the only one getting married doing jenny craig...but i'll keep posting anyway....
my motivation: to do my wedding gown justice. it's beautiful, and i want to look beautiful in it. luckly, it looks good on me now, but it can look better, right???
are there any more brides to be?? post so we can support each other. i don't respond well to rejection. j/k!!!

I have to start dress shopping in 2 months... so I need to be down 20 pounds by then, wish me luck!

Oh how glad I am to find a "brides-to-be" support group!
I just joined yesturday, and getting married in August 07 - that leaves under 10 months to loose about 50 pounds! I've got my dress already - a beautiful strapless number - but wishing to all heavens that when the fitting comes, it has to be taken in a bit (well, more than a bit!)
I'm sure we can support each other through this and beyond...afterall, I would hate to think that the weight comes back after the wedding, and then one day my kids would ask "daddy, who was your first wife?"
Best of luck all - looking forward to supporting and being supported!

yes let's support each other!!!
i'm getting married in jan. so pretty soon. i need at least 20 more lbs. to go, at least....sigh...
i would like to be able to take in my strapless gown too...hee hee...wouldn't that be a GREAT feeling??
keep us posted, girls!

Hello girls! I am getting married in May '07. I have been on JC now for a week and I've lost 3.4lbs only 36.1 lbs to go!! I'm very excited about losing weight. I got my dress in aug. I was going to wait until christmas but it was a great deal I couldn't pass up!!
SW:197.5
1stW:-3.4 = 194.1
GW:158 (to start)

Ok girls, I need a little pick me up!
I went away for the weekend (just an overnight trip) and did the best I could with the JC meals, but honestly, not as good as I know I could have been. Don't feel bad, but not good either. I told my fiance I was on JC and he totally supports it and willing to cheer me on - he even had a nibble of my strawberry bar and loved it!
I've come back today only to go to a funeral wake, then on a night shift (I'm at work now!), and the funeral mass tomorrow. My first WI is supposed to be in the a.m., but had to cancel it because of the mass. Hoping to reschedule for Tuesday.
Life is life...and I know there's always going to be "something" happening. What keeps you guys going, besides the thought of the wedding/wedding dress. I want to go beyond this - make a permanent change to my lifestyle. Thanks for letting me just write - not really looking for a response - maybe just a "keep it up" and a reminder that it all comes from within!

Hey girls Im another bride to be. OCT 2007 and about 65 lbs to loose. Luckily I have lots of time.

Welcome to the group!
