For anyone that has gained weight since their wedding (including those who have lost what they gained)
Original post by Mici n KC
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?

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
I think we should start a text messaging group or something to get us going. I don't get on the computer much when I'm home, but if someone texts me, I'll be sure to do it!

i've gained 20 lbs in the past year. definitely eating out more, lack of activity - not only am i super lazy, i also had an injury to my right calf, so that took a couple of months to heal. living w/ the IL's didn't help either. but now i'm pregnant, and have been the same weight since i found out, but that's because i eat really small meals since eating makes me nauseous.

i gained 10 pounds in the first year of being on BC. and then at the same time, not sure if its relatetd to BC, my metabolism and appetite totally changed. I'm eating more than i ever used to and gaining weight in my lower half mostly. The winter doesn't help, cuz i stop running. I'm looking forward to running again soon and hopefully dropping some fat before the summer!

It's all part of being a woman. We tend to gain more weight in our hips as we get older. It suckss!

I've gained and it's from the Baby in my belly! Although I am not as active as I was before I got married this weather is not motivating!

My DH is worse than I am- HE GAINED 40 lbs!!!! Its bad!!
I've been trying to get him to exercise and whatnot but he jsut keeps making up excuses and I'm seriously ready to purge our house of any 'junk' and just keep celery and stuff around
The only problem is, he gets really upset if there's no snacks. He's like a baby- He's actually looked in the fridge after I went shopping and goes 'DID YOU EVEN THINK OF ME AT ALL????' like a friggin 4 year old!

Comfort...I blame it on that...being happy and comfy, I feel like I tend to eat more! As someone mentioned above, there isn't that whole idea of having to look good for something...I really need some motivation though...or just a swift kick in my now more padded ***...

OMG my dh does the same thing, only his skinny *** can eat all day and not gain an ounce. He'll tell me that I need to lose weight and to 'just not eat anything bad'. Real easy for someone to say after they've eaten six donuts in one night! Everytime I come home from food shopping, he'll look around and say 'you didn't think about what i like!'

DH keeps telling me he wants junk in the house so I buy very few things for him. But the problem is he doesn't eat them and I see them and I eat it! It's not even like cake but ramen noodles!

DH left for 3 months for a work project a week after our wedding...that and the bottom layer of wedding cake i had in the fridge didn't help...i was sad & lonely & i just sat on my couch alot...that and not having the motivation to fit in a wedding dress was my down fall...luckily getting a letter of intent from the police kicked my fat arse to get fit so i could pass my tests...and the academy is keeping me there..now the trick is to stay this way once i get out...

Mine does the same thing! The worst part is I can't let him go food shopping because he goes there, spends $200 on 5 things because he just dosen't understand how to shop.
OH- and if I send him to get things, ITS WORSE. I sent him for Frozen Broccoli last night and he came home with Fluff and Caramel syrup!
Like seriously- WHO DOES THAT???!!!!

Is there a choice E 'All of the above'
I agree. The fact that I don't have to fit into a dress means I don't watch what I eat. Plus I got a new job with similar hours to DH so every night I cook dinner and we watch tv and hang out every night. I'm hoping once it gets warm out that I will have more motivation to go outside and get exercise. I can't wait to ride my bike and go for jogs.

I hope I will ride my bike once the weather gets nicer!

The cold weather and wanted to stay home on the couch with hubby. Going out to eat more. I still have been working out like 2x a week but that isnt enough with the way i am stuffing my face. My clothes are so tight I am wearing my fat pants.
