Recently engaged Lauren Manzo, daughter of  former Real Housewives of New Jersey star, Caroline Manzo, has been determined to slim down as her wedding day approaches. And she’s been documenting her journey on her social media.

Lauren, who underwent breast reduction surgery last year and a Lap-Band procedure in 2012, has always been open about her weight struggles.

Adopting a healthier approach to diet and exercise isn’t the only thing on her mind. Lauren is deep into the wedding planning process. She’s said she hopes to tie the knot in the church of her fiancé’s alma mater, Fordham University. And she’s already picked out a color scheme. “I want the bridesmaids to wear wedding dresses, too,” she said. “Mine will be snow white and they will be in ivory or cream.”

In addition to tweeting about hitting the gym, Lauren, who is set to wed longtime love Vito Scalia in April, has given updates on her progress. Over the weekend she shared, “Down 16 lbs since January! I’d really like to lose 25 more by April!” A month before that, she revealed that she was already down 10 pounds from the beginning of the year.

So how does she look? Lauren recently showed off her slimmed-down figure on Instagram while serving up her best Beyoncé. And we gotta say: the girl looks good!
