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

Hi Brides to beeee how is everyone? Aint been on here in a while but thought Id check in! How r u doing weight loss wise? I think I was so concentrated on loosing weight for the wedding that didnt think about afterwards haha! Put on like 2 stone! :( But I'm back on the straight and narrow and half a stone down now! xx

Have decided to step up my regime a little bit and work on my thighs a bit more, will measure tomorrow to monitor how I'm doing over the next month.

Well finally got some of my fitness stuff sorted as in apps and fitbit stuff going to start tracking details again from Tuesday but so far 1lb gone this week

Well done :) I lost another 1/2lb this week taking my total so far to 13lb.

Seems to be taking forever but forcing myself to stick at it! Hoping I can lose another 4lb by Christmas.

Corrr, wish I was your size again Emma! I used to take it for granted being slim but it's definitely crept up on me the last few years :( do you really need to lose weight or would you like to tone up? Maybe do some exercises such as sit ups, crunches and the plank etc x

Rather than 'dieting' maybe just try and generally have a healthier lifestyle, so cut out a lot of the rubbish (but still have treats every now and then of course) and eat healthier meals. If you think you are on a diet then you are more likely to want to break it!! x

I out on 2ibs this week, I put that down to period, gastroenteritis and ohs birthday.

Expecting another gain this week as it's ds birthday going out all day sat and his party on Sunday hopefully it's not too bad and I'm really strict next week I'll take it back off again.

Need a big kick up the back side.. sat at my desk thinking about rubbish (everything but work ha) and it's just dawned on me I've only got 7/8 months before I start dress shopping. I really need to get my bum in gear and start losing weight!!! Why is it soo hard :(

After falling back into terrible habits iv kick started the diet this week and have already done two gym classes this week :) away with work next week but think there is a gym at the hotel so will bypass big meals out and go there instead :)

Myself and a friend will be giving the forever living cleanse 9 a go in a week or two. I'm very excited. Not only is it a detox, but people have been known to lose a stone in 9 days!
Wedding dress fitting here I come :)

They put you on a strict plan for a week- you need to do exercise and drink replacement shakes and a gel drink etc.
Its all quite strict, but it acts a detox so a majority of the weight loss is from ridding your body of toxins etc. :) x

Thanks Flossie :-)

Congrats Emma. Great achievement!

Hey girls, thought I'd check this thread out as I joined a gym last week (something I said I'd never do lol) to get in tip top shape for my wedding!!
Getting married on 21st May next year. Have lost half a stone already but still another stone and a bit to go. Though I'm not too obsessed about my perfect target weight as I want to mould my body into as toned as it can get and feel and look stong and lean. I want to me able to go back to my dressmaker in another couple of months and her having to take a few inches off my dress lol.

But feeling motivated exercise wise, I just need to eat better and healthier otherwise whats the point in putting the effort at the gym in! H2B has also joined so us going together is good as well :-).
Congrats so far to the weight loss and good luck to everyone! xxx

Thanks flossie x

Well iv just eaten my way round Berlin and off to Edinburgh for the weekend tomorrow. Back on it next week I promise!

Definitely not fair MrsR :( so easy to put on, but so hard to get off again! Good luck with WW.

I am going for a new technique at the mo. Having porridge for breakfast, cutting out my morning coffee and having water instead. Having Ryvitas and fruit for lunch and drinking just water throughout the day, then eating an evening meal as normal (trying to be as healthy as poss, but not really strict). I know it doesn't sound like a lot but I think I need to train myself to cut down on just how much I am eating and get my stomach used to that. Also trying to cut out bread as I normally eat a lot!

Yay, 2lb off, would have liked more but a loss is a loss :)

I'm finding it difficult to behave with eating after doing it just over 2 months.. Had mds and Krispy Kreme yesterday!

Finding it difficult because it's a bit far away, my dress won't be in until April or March at earliest so then I need to loose my few pounds slowly rather than crash, cave and dive into a pile of cupcakes cos I cant discipline myself for too long!
I did do some strength weight exercises yesterday though so it wasn't all bad...

Bitten the bullet and signed up to weight watchers meetings. Think I need the discipline of going to someone to get weighed. Have done it online before but lost motivation after a month or so.
