For anyone that has gained weight since their wedding (including those who have lost what they gained)

What was it that you gained it from? Was it lack of activity? Just not watching what you were eating? Eating more junk than you've ever done before? Boredom eating?

ummm Michele- if I knew that I would be a therapist- a thin therapist- kidding

i think it started on the honeymoon, i was so good before the wedding that I indulged too much & when I came back, never stopped

Mine started more after the wedding. Actually it began on my HM. we ate NON STOP for like 8 days. Then I got pregnant a couple months later and I was eating alll day long b/c i was so nauseous and eating helped.
Now I lost the baby and I'm stuck with like 12lbs that i SHOULDNT have.
But i'm making some changes and I'm detemined to lose all that and thensome :)

I'm 5'4, so 17 pounds = pants don't come above my knee caps.

I cried this weekend because we were going out to a nice dinner with DH's coworkers and I had absolutely nothing to wear. I can only blame myself, I haven't watched what I've been eating and I sit on my couch so much that there is a special place with the imprint of my butt on it. It's a combination of a few things and instead of crying about I should be going to the gym but I'm dumb

Re: For anyone that has gained weight since their wedding (including those who have lost what they gained)

my weight has been fluctuating like crazy - i think its b/c i stopped exercising and eating more crap....my DH is good though - still going to the gym where i have been slacking - and i like working out just being lazy i guess.....not sure what my problem is i think its just the winter makes me lazy and with nothing to have to 'look good' for i have less motivation....today i got on the scale and i'm only 1lb heavier than i was around the wedding - but last week i was like 5lbs heavier - so not really sure what is going on with my weight too much pasta and doritos i think!
