i have hit a plateau.....boo.



ugh i hate that, but don't feel bad just about everybody goes through it its annoying...don't let it discourage you, all of a sudden youre gonna drop all this weight later on and it will be out of nowhere, thats what happens to me. I had lost weight not long ago and that to me of course meant i could eat a little more, didnt gain weight when i did so i kept doing it, now all of a sudden ive gained a little back so had to get back into really working out alot. Also that time of month is coming up and im so bloated so I just feel real blah



thanks for the pep talk....I usually get so frustrated....I starting doing the on demand ones which I actually like...so maybe the change in routine will do me good!

Re: Wedding workout progress report

Do you know what really motivated me this week?? I watched MTV True Life: I want the Perfect Body. Well, there was a girl on there who wanted to be in a fitness competition. Now, I am sure none of us want the bulging muscles, but she was a scientist at Harvard and basically said this is an experiment. Her plan was basically to work out 4 days a week for 2 hours and eat low carb, high protein and see if it worked. At the end of 3 months, she had an amazing (litle too buff for me) body!!!

All this to say, I have 5 months till the wedding, so I think I am just going to do her plan

hahah its okay, i have become anti-social lately with this GYM stuff, although I have to go out this weekend for a b-day party....
What do I do with Alcohol....Whats the best to drink on a diet?



They were re-opening the gym at work this week(which one day i'm determined to actually go to) and I got this cool little slide thingy that has some information about all types of drinks including 'alcoholic beverages'. It doesn't have any specific brands or information but hopefully just will give a general idea.

Beer 8 oz 102 cal
Lt Beer 8oz 68 cal
Creme de menthe 4oz 499 cal
Daiquiri 4oz 225 cal
Gin 4oz 292 cal
Pina Colada 4oz 219 cal
Rum 4oz 257 cal
Tequila Sunrise 4oz 137 cal
Vodka 4oz 257 cal
Whiskey sour 4oz 147 cal
Red wine 4oz 100 cal

hahahah its okay, i have become anti-social lately with this GYM stuff, although I have to go out this weekend for a b-day party....

I've heard that Bacardi Light and Diet is the best way to go.... It's only 60 calories per drink...

Ok our other thread got moved to NWR, and i know it was helping alot of girls stay motivated so i added 'wedding' to the title

So how has everyone been doing with getting in shape.

I am still doing yoga booty ballet and LOVE IT!!! i do see a difference. Alot of my clothes are big on me now, my arms are getting alot better and getting nice muscle definition. I don't know how much ive lost bc i didnt weight myself in the beginning lol



Your workout sounds fun! I have had such a hard time motivating myself, so I just went on Amazon and bought these DVDs. Thanks for the recommendation

Re: Wedding workout progress report

the last time i posted on this thread was SOOO long ago! i had been so busy, and then just had a really hard time starting to do things again. but yesterday i finally went to the gym again! i didnt do much (b/c i am sooo out of shape i didnt want to overdo it first day). but i walked on the treadmill on an incline for 30 mins, and i did weights (uppers and lowers).

I also went to the beach on Tues. night to go for a walk with my mom and sister, but the italian food i had for dinner that night kind of cancelled that out, lol.

glad to see this threead still up, you ladies are doing great!

Re: Wedding workout progress report

I am joining this thread.
I finally organized my schedule to fit a diet and exercise.
In the past two weeks I have lost 8lbs. I know its mainly the excess water weight but im excited.

I stopped looking for my dress due to fear of loosing alot and then paying extra for alterations. I hope to loose
10 lbs more by Mid AUG to finally order the dress I want.
