    Ok, not the bride but mother of the bride. Tried on the dress I wore 4 years ag to my other daughters wedding and couldn’t zip it up!
    Now my youngest daughter is marrying in September and I NEED to lose 2 stones. I want her to be proud of me and I want to make her proud.
    Anyone out there think it is a possible target or not realistic.
    Here goes. DAY 1

    Gardenmark, stick to the diet and 2 stones long before september is utterly doable. Look at weigh in thread and Captainlynne’s two threads, over the 8 week line and 16 weeks and over.

    Hello and welcome Grandenmark,

    I too am mother of the bride. I started the journey 9 weeks ago today also needing to lost the same amount as you. My daughter’s wedding is now in 3 1/2 weeks time!

    Yes is the answer, it is perfectly doable in your timescale – or sooner. She will however be proud of you regardless.

    to date I have lost 22lb. I bought my dress after week 1, but in the size below the one I was at the time – motivation or what!

    So if I can do it, anyone can.

    Keep posting to let us know how you are getting on.
