Anyone else struggling to lose weight before the wedding? Mine is next weekend and I'm having a tough time accepting I'm going to be at a weight I'm not happy at. I've gained about 60lbs since covid so it's been a struggle to accept how I look

After a certain you just have to let go and remember the sole purpose of the wedding is to celebrate the love between you and your partner. Aesthetics will fluctuate but being there for each other and getting through the good and bad is what matters. That’s the beauty of life and love while having someone special at your side.

The best thing about a wedding?? Two people marrying each other because they love who one another is ❤️ bodies fluctuate, and when that happens and the love doesn’t change, it’s true, unconditional love. Don’t sweat it one bit 😘 I’m also at the point struggling to lose weight and love the body I’m in, so I do truly understand just how hard that is!! Your partner loves you for you, and they love you just enough to marry you 😉 do not be afraid to occupy space, especially on your own wedding day. The whole damn wedding is your space!!!!

Advice and/or consolation anyone? My wife and I (both above average health 30year olds) were trying for 11 months before getting pregnant and then had a week 5 early miscarriage a few months back.

We got back to it and have been trying for the last 2 months again, still no luck. We’re freaking out… all we want is a family. Any similar stories? Advice? 😢

I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!
