Re: So, how much weight would like to lose for your wedding and what are you doing to get there?

I have 10 more pounds to lose and 30 days to do it
I will eat very small meals 3 X a day, and exercise my butt off.
GO to the gym, and do my Pilates at home.
I will make it, I bet I can do it by May 17th (my next fitting)
I'll even bet money

I don't want to lose pounds but rather inches. If I can lose 1 inch off my thighs, butt and waist, I'll be very very happy.... But so far, exercise hasn't helped and if I eat less than what I eat now, I would be starving....

Re: So, how much weight would like to lose for your wedding and what are you doing to get there?

It's hard to say with me... I'd like to be down another 20lbs by my wedding, I've already lost 13. Although some people might say 33lbs is way to much for me to lose.

I'm screwed up, I'm 5'2' don't look overweight, although my scale sure tells me I am!

I'm sticking to WW and now going to start getting some cardio in atleast 3 times a week. It will come off slow, but that's the only way I'll keep it off! WHOA! I babbled! sorry

Re: So, how much weight would like to lose for your wedding and what are you doing to get there?

I am 5'2 and 130 lbs....(can't believe I am admitting this...)
I refuse to to give up until I am back to 110.

I want to lose 20 lbs and know I can do it...
I have been a size 2 all my life and don't plan to let myself get into a rut and just become satisfied just because everyone else says 'Oh, you look great - you don't need to lose weight'

I HATE THAT....

with that said....those are my goals!!!!
(i'll stop ranting now)

Sage, you can't possibly be 130, you're skinnier than me... I don't believe you, sorry.

Re: So, how much weight would like to lose for your wedding and what are you doing to get there?

I am 5'8' and 160 pounds. I am going to aim for 10 pounds before the wedding (about 6 months) though I would love to lose 15.

I have motivated myself this week and I've been eating healthy and adding protein to my diet, trying to cut some of my carbs out during dinner and walking. Friday I'll go to the gym and do some weights.

I have a membership to Curves and I don't like it - I bulked up and now NOTHING fits me so I now have to start from scratch and get my walking in to get rid of some inches.

I will be fit and fabulous by November 8th!!!!!

Muscle weighs more than fat girls!!

I want to look leaner -- am working out and building muscle but I don't have the definition I want. Would love to lose 5 pounds - it's impossible!!

Re: So, how much weight would like to lose for your wedding and what are you doing to get there?

so i've been going to inches a weigh as most of you know.... last measuring left me with 20 inches - yea i said 20 off my my body.... i've decided it's low cal low/non fat for me all the way now plenty of sushi & NO MORE INDIAN OR GREEK FOOD!!! it's all delish, but sooooooooooo high in fat!

i go to I-A-W 6 times a week, and when i'm not absolutely dead after i get home from school i do my pilates routines.... it's just very very hard .... especially when pete wants to talk to me until i go to sleep.....

maybe i'll stick the earpiece in my ear tonight & get on the treadmill while i speak to him.... if i'm not exhausted that is....

it really stinks to get up @ 6 and not get home til 10

Re: So, how much weight would like to lose for your wedding and what are you doing to get there?

Back in October I set my goal to lose 30 pounds by the wedding. With 24 days left I have 5 pounds to go. I'm eating 5-6 small meals a day and working out 6 times a week. These last 2 weeks have been crazy and I haven't been able to keep up with it, but I still think I can reach my goal. I plan on stepping up the workouts and drinking lots of water in order to hit the 30 pound mark. Plus I'm sure I'll drop some weight just from stress alone.

I need to lose 50lbs by Nov. of 2004. I would be happy to if I could go down like 4 dress sizes too!
I started WW this week and last month I joined the gym. I go to the gym 6 days a week!
So far from the gym alone I have lost 3 1/2 inches off my waist
Hopefully things will continue to go well! Wish me luck, and to all those trying Good Luck to you too
