Wedding Forum - Official Weight Loss Thread - hints and...

I currently feel the size of a whale on the beach!!! I've hardly been to the gym, was meant to go yesterday but after running around after work, I had no time and had to finish some more uni work. I am going tonight though, and again on Friday evening, but two sessions a week makes me feel like I've not done enough when I am used to doing at least 3-4

i agree with MrsC Glitterfairy! I wish i had you motivation to even put two days in! Once i get home from work i turn into the laziest version of me, pj's are on and nothing can get me out of them :'D

Personal commitments Nicole, I really liked her, keeping in contact through bookface still. I am kinda dreading it, told my trainer last week and he said if it is really bad he will weigh me at the beginning of each session. I am 3lb shy of a stone and I really want to get that this week, really trying hard at the gym and diet so I am hopeful but we shall see x

how about doing exercise in your PJ's? that way best of both world :) dont think about doing it day after day but maybe mon, wed fri so you give yourself recovery and time off, most important thing though is dont beat yourself up the negativity does not help. What about marching on the spot in ad breaks? x

I was like that too but you know what, I found classes I really liked then I started with this personal trainer and now I love the gym. Just seeing progress has been amazing and getting strong and hopefully healthy means I should hopefully get pregnant quickly after we get married. I'm 33 so I know it isn't that old but I don't want to wait forever!
You just got to do what you are happy with.

I have my fingers crossed (and will have a big wee) before I get on the scales tonight. How you getting on Nicole?

It is quite a few weigh day's today isn't it? Good luck all xx

Aww Mrs- I'm not surprised - I eat when stressed- have you tried the M1litory diet? Only 3 days but can lose a few last lb

1lb on this week but I expected that, its made me more determined to get the two next week.

ooh MrsC I'm the same! 1 pound will be easy to lose again though! Same for Stacey as well! Don't let a pound get you down x

Well done lesley, so close now!

I didn't have weigh in last night as it was my wedding menu taster and let me tell you I consumed probably a months worth of syns in the champagne alone :') so damage control before next thursday x

You'll be fine Nicole, you've been the most supportive person on this thread, if anyone can do it you can!!

I was expecting a gain so I'm happy its only 1lb and it shows the limits I can go to enjoy myself without causing too much damage. The main thing is getting back on plan as soon as possible.

Forgot to update but last week at weigh uni had out on half a pound. Was devastated as it was my first gain since 1st December! But this week I've managed to lose 1.5 pounds so back on track and 1 pound away from a 2 stone loss :) also was at the Chinese tonight after weigh in (the irony) and the lady at the counter asked if I had lost weight!

Well done Nicole

Well done both of you you, I was out last week so I didn't get weighed, I put on 31/2 this week which I am devastated about! I am on my star week though and have eaten bread this week (not allowed on BSD) so think that is definitely it. I am hoping to lose that over the next couple of weeks! Got my dress sizing coming up 1st June so I want to lose another stone before then!

You sound like you are not far off though - it wont be my dress, they are measuring me then they will make it. I didn't do it when I bought the dress so I lost some inches before they made it. x

as well I think the longer you keep it off before, the longer it will stay off after - that is my theory lol

I have 3 months to lose 1.5 stone! I need to just stop putting food in my mouth!

I ask myself the self the same thing all the time IDL, the weekends are my worst downfall I just don't want to eat on plan.

I think when you are so close it is really hard, I have totally lost all motivation and I really shouldn't!

I just need some low syn treats I can eat without wanting to gorge on the whole bag

exactly Nicole

oo thats a good tip, they are a little bit sweet as well

Stacey me too! I just don't buy them in anymore to stop the temptation x

Toni apparently that can happen when getting close to your wedding date as you are distracted and stressing! i'm sure it will be perfect when you try your dress on as 4 pounds isn't enough on its own to alter your size too much x

Thanks Nicole I feel a lot better about it now, just hope I don't loose anymore :)

Wow Emily what a fantastic weight loss!!

Hi Maxine, I've been with SW for 16 weeks now and my average is just under a pound a week, if you really get into and stick to plan losing 1lb a week will be an easy target to reach.

Need to get back into prepping snack pots, lunches and breakfast the night before got into a bad habit of just stopping in bed then rushing around and then just picking up bad things.

Hi Maxine if you did manage to average about a pound a week that would be an amazing loss but make sure it's within the limits of your dress as well x

So I lost 2 1/2 last night, chuffed, just need 1 more to loose what I put on last week, how did you all get on?
