Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I'd like to loose 15-20lbs, i don't currenlty work out....and honestly i really don't want to nor have the time or $$ to. What is everyone doing to shape up?

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

Walk walk walk walk walk! Everywhere and anywhere, during the summer this is the best excercise I find. I also have been cutting my food portions in half at each sitting, but not denying myself the foods I love. It seems to be working for me so far.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

i want to lose at least 10 pounds

Do you have a subscription to netflix? For about $17 each month you can rent any number of DVDs - including workout DVDs. Maybe you could try doing that. It is certainly less than many gym memberships and you can workout at home.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I don't need to lose any weight but I would like to tone up my muscles a lil. But I never work out, I'm just too lazy!! Oh well, maybe tomorrow.....

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

Me! But considering I hate to watch what I eat and I hate to exercise, I doubt its gonna happen Really I would like to lose maybe 8lbs or just tone up a bit. Or if I could just get a bit of a tan before the wedding, I swear it makes me look 5lb thinner!

Hopefully when the day gets closer I will be a bit more motivated to hit the gym.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

Im just going to change my eating habits & hit the gym.. not hard core, but gradually.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

i sure want to! i would like to loose 10 -15 pounds- i need to get my butt in gear

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I havent been doing it for awhile but weight watchers helped me lose 10lbs. and would've done more but I stopped doing it! Planning to start again though. I'd be happy to FM you the point list for the flex program and there is a site you can go on that gives you the points for take out and the formula for groceries is pretty simple.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I am trying to lose weight - but I constantly find reasons to start later. Like, I can't start this weekend, I'm going to too many parties.

I have been exercising (esp. walking) more in the past few weeks.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I'm going to GAIN weight! LOL - out of spite.

I think it's hysterical when people ask me if I'm going to lose weight for the wedding....for what reason I tell them? I Love Me, I love the way I look, FI loves me and the way I look - what purpose does it serve???

I'm no stick either - I'm a proud Plus Size Woman and LOVE IT!

Obviously if it's for health reason - that I would do it....

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I was on WW and it was working, but then I started a new job and haven' been able to do everything the same.
I am still eating better, but not exercising as much. I really need to get back on that.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I would love to lose about 15 lbs...I'll probably crash diet though and go to the gym right before (maybe the last 3 months)

I think they just assume that when you're a bride, you're going to go on the Extreme Bridal Diet. They forget we need to eat too!

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

ME!!! I already lost 16lbs & would love to lose 30 more!

I am not one into working out at all!

I was going to the track every night to walk and since I been off of school, I've been rollerblading every morning about a mile or so.

The little 100 calorie packs have been wonderful b/c I can eat them every 2-3 hours & they keep your portions under control in between meals.

Fruit & things like carrots & cucumbers have been great too!!!

I also allow myself one day where I'm free to eat whatever all day.

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I want to lose a few pounds 5-10...but I want to tone more so than lose...I've been working with a trainer at the gym for the last 4 weeks 2-3 times with her and then 2-3 days of cardio...its painful as hell cause I'm pratically crawling the next day.... but I def am starting to see muscle definition....and bc muscle weighs more than fat I haven't seen a significant drop in lbs yet I def see it in the way my clothes fit....

Its costing me
at at the end of the package I'll probably sign up again...the results are worth it and I don't want to fall out of the routine...

Re: Any 06ers loosing weight before the big day?

I am hitting the gym everyday for an hour and half this summer while i have off from work...me and the FH just joined WW we got all the stuff yesterday in the mail. I need to lose 13 lbs! We'll see...Ill keep ya posted
