I drink 64-92 oz a day - I only drink water, once in a great while a Dr. Pepper. I got a bobble water bottle and i love it!

It's taking me awhile, I've started to get more active in the forums but damn everytime I check I think ok that had to be like 50 posts... nope only 10. Ha.!

Sad that this will be the final season (7), but the 6th season is out on DVD soon!

Feels like it takes forever!

I need to start this - I completed one week when it first came out, but stopped. Anyone else starting up again soon??

Good choices @MrsSheppardToBe

I did TRX on my lunch hour today! Feel great! My office mate might think I smell a tad lol

I totally agree! My personal trainer is absolutely amazing! I've trained with him before (I had to move away then I moved back) and he is literally the push I need to keep myself motivated and accountable. He is into Crossfit so we implement many of the moves you see in Crossfit into my workouts. It's pretty crazy I never pictured myself dead lifting or squatting but it makes you feel so powerful and strong! And not bulky either! I think weightlifting has helped me the most in body composition, now diet is my other key factor - I try to eat a balanced meal with reduced carb intake but I don't starve myself or if I am craving something I eat it. I don't want to be miserable. I use the app MyFitnessPal, you can either use your phone or they have a website. If you join, add me! My username is ctlind7

I'm sorry to hear that Well just remember that is your day, you are marrying the man of your dreams and you will be in paradise!

@@bride6 my mother actually found a dress that was categorized as a bridesmaid dress. All the dresses they were showing her at the stores were very matronly and and boxy. My mom is pretty trendy and youthful so we were at a loss. I found it on the rack and she tried it on and loved it! It was still mature looking, but had a youthful flare to it. Here is the link: http://www.allurebridals.com/products/1273 in Eggplant. My colors are Coral and Glittery Gold with pops of eggplant. BM's are wearing coral Now for my MIL she is determined to find a "deal" and hasn't found anything. She's ordered 2 dresses from Bergners and hated both. She doesn't want to pay that much money, but I'm afraid what she is looking for isn't in her budget.

Thanks We like the date too @@melgibbs !

You could always flip the situation back on her saying I know you have a new job coming up and with your condition I don't want to jeopardize your health on the trip or lay it on reallly thick so it's almost like it's her idea to politely step out of the wedding? That way you don't have to kick her out LOL just a suggestion, but that is def a hard situation. I have 5 BM's and my FI has 3 GM's so we are uneven too, which I don't think is that big of deal Especially now where pretty much anything goes!

Thank you for the ideas! We planned on doing cocktail hour or a chance for them to grab lunch since the ceremony is at 12pm

We are using a TA and for it to count for our nights, they have to go through our TA. We have 2 people using their timeshare and they do not count for our nights. In another topic group of the forum, brides were saying do not ship anything if you every want to see it again.... but check with the WC/resort and see

I def agree!!

We are getting married on 12.13.14 and could only get a 12pm ceremony time, but we want our reception to start around 5 or 6pm.... has any brides had to deal with this or currently are?? We are trying to find the best option for us and to not make our guests wait around. Thoughts?? All advice is appreciated greatly!! (aka HELP!) haha

Check out my Save the Dates Sent these out in January. They are tri-fold and the front comes together with a round coral sticker with our monogram. I didn't include the back, but there is a photo of my FI and I from our previous Cancun trip with a "Hope to see you there" message http://cdn.bestdestinationwedding.com/gallery/album_17535/gallery_272185_17535_300248.png

Thanks! We knew we wanted a December wedding, but I didn't have a specific date I wanted and my TA/planner said well the 13th looks good, then it clicked 12/13/14 and we went with it!

Agreed! Turquoise looks fab!

hahahaha hilarious!

I like the turquoise ones!

Love it!

We are in December '14 and I plan on sending out the formal invites in mid-Sept. We sent our STD's out Jan 2014 for Dec 2014 wedding.
