    Thought I'd try out a fun thread.

    When...You try on your retainer that you haven't worn in 6 years to see if your teeth can get a little straighter. 

    Definitely put myself through that pain last night...ridiculous

    When you actually do the first horrfying work-out in Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred instead of saying..."I'll start next week".  Afterwards you don't reward yourself with icecream, but miserably eat yogurt instead.

    ...when your wedding counter goes into double digits.

    ...when instead of jumping around screaming "YAAAAY, just a few more weeks!" you're rocking yourself back and forth reassuringly mumbling, "Just a few more weeks, just a few more weeks..."

    ...when the first thing out of anyone's mouth when they see you is, "EEEEEEEeeeEeeEeeee, you must be so excited!!!!!"

    ...when you're finally getting more real mail than bills because of all the RSVPS flooding in.

    ...when you're cursing all your married friends/family who haven't RSVP'd, because "They had to go through this themselves, they should know better!"

    When your Mom calls at least twice a day asking if you've finished your part of the list....that you both came up with just hours ago. Lol. (Note: I haven't. I think I'm in a wedding coma.)

    And I agree about people not RSVPing!! Dammit the postage is already PAID!

    When people call asking you the most ridiculous questions about what they should wear, and is it okay if I wear this? I don't care. Seriously I don't. You're a grown up. Dress yourself for a wedding. YEESH!

    Oh, as per the retainer. I can't find mine (oops?) but I've been whitening the hell out of my teeth every night and starting my "beauty regimen." FI looks at me crazy. I'm sure it's not pretty.

    I had a dream about this retainer thing last night. I woke up disappointed that I don't have mine anymore. I would be doing this, except a golden retriever got a hold of mine last year (I had left it on my night stand), came up to me chomping on it, and totally bent it out of shape (it was one of those total plastic ones that look more like a mouth guard).

    What a jerk. I at least hope his smile is straighter because of it.

    I'm already freaking out and mine is in May! I JUST sent out the save the dates. Talk about procrastinating. I'm not even sure when to send the invites. Like next month? Oh well... at least it's a small wedding and everyone already knows all of the details already. Also, I really need to call a seamstress  to do alterations on my dress. Yikes!

    HAHA I love this.

    When you start trying any crazy workout program to get ready for wedding pictures and honeymoon bathing suits.

    When you give up processed foods to start "eating clean".

    When you start tanning and whitening your teeth.

    When you enter in a million wedding-related contests from free pictures, honeymoon, makeup packages, etc.

    I'm excited, anxious, ecstatic, nervous, stressed, happy - all at the same time!!!!!

    Can we revive this thread?

    You know your wedding is quickly approaching when.. your heart starts racing just reading the posts..

    As other people said, when you start tanning, whitening your teeth, and starting any sort of crazy workout plan you can

    When you race home to check the mail to count your RSVP's

    When you casually begin to browse your registry.. just to make sure no items are "out of stock" and need to be removed of course..

    When the word wedding makes you want to vomit!

    All of the above.. Plus

    ...When there's so many things to do you can't list them all at once.

    ...When everyone asks you if you're nervous & all you can think about is how it's impossible to be nervous when you're so stressed that everything won't be done in time.

    ...When you look at the extended forcast to see what the weather will be like for your day (I keep checking, but it isn't close enough to my date yet)

    ...When your house is filled with everything needed to decorate the ceremony & reception, plus any other needed items for the big day.

    ...When you stay up all hours to get something done for the wedding becuase you know you won't sleep unless that one project is done.

    I could probably keep going, but I have wedding stuff to do. LOL.

    When your To Do lists take up a whole notebook

    When you have to ship Priority cause it won't get here on time if you use anything else!

    When things you thought you needed can't happen and you think " I guess I didn't need that anyways"

    When you check tracking numbers every couple hours to make sure your stuff arrives in time

    When you cry all the time whether your happy, sad, angry, laughing, or a gooD song comes on in the car

    I do this on a regular basis anyway... I can't even imagine where I'll be come July.

    *But this thread totally makes me feel better about the coming months and that I obviously will not be the only nervous/stressed out bride. Thanks bees :)

    when everything your FI says to you is irrelvant because ' THE WEDDING IS IN 9 DAYS??!!!"

    when you talk to your wedding planner more than your FI!

    - when I cant wait to get up and check the mail to see if any rsvp's are in the mail.

    -when im not even nervous anymore because I am so stressed trying to get everything done.

    -when I told myself I would be stress free one month before the wedding... ha yea right, still have more stuff to get done.

    -when im trying to tan and workout and get diet pills

    -when I look at my wedding countdown on my phone everyday and tell FI how many days left.

    -all I ever talk about now is the wedding and how close it is.

    and everything everyone else said lol!
