    My h2b is losing weight and I'm gaining weight :( I've not gained much weight but enough. I'm struggling to motivate myself to do something. I started to do zumba with one of my friends who is also getting married but she is a nurse so works shift and its difficult to keep going to one class at the same time. I then started to go with one of my bridesmaids too, she was keen at the beginning but now doesnt seem bothered. I am struggling to motivated myself to go alone. I wanted to tone up my arms so bought weights and they've sat in a corner for a month now. Is anyone else having the same problem with motivation?

    I took motivational pictures of my body. Every time I don't wanna work out I look at the pictures and think, I need to fit that into a bikini. More worried about the honeymoon body than the dress body haha. I found that I work out more at home doing fitness dvds then I did at the gym.

    Yeah im having the same problem I am trying to eat better by following ww points the result = Disaster. I need to start exercising but with a four year old to organise I don't have much time to do anything H2b on the other hand gets up at 6am and goes for a run and has started insanity (Im not fit enough to do that) dvd hes lost about a stone, I actually hatehow easy it is for him to lose weight.

    I find it easier to go to a class if I go with someone once then I know what to expect and can go next time myself. Connor starts school in august so im hoping that gives me time to myself to go swimming as I can do that any time and if I go in the morning its quiet. (The hardest part is getting in and out the pool)

    I really really struggled with motivation to start with, got engaged Nov 12 and started exercising Jan 13 but just couldnt keep it up.... When dec 13 hit i thought this is it now....joined the gym and try to go about 5 times a week!! So far i have lost 18lbs!

    For me i got lots of pictures of myself at my biggest, i keep them on my phone and have a couple on my desk at work! Everytime i feel like giving up i look at them!! I also got a picture of my dress worn by a model (who is uber skinny) and look at that!! lol!

    I personally think (from my experience) when you get to 6months to go thats when reality hits lol!! Good luck!! xx
