Well, have you?

I've def been eating more than i used to before the wedding ... but i'm only a couple of pounds heavier than i was at the wedding, and still working out (though i did take a 2 week hiatus at one point).

I've actually lost 4 lbs since the wedding for some strange reason. Probably bc I cook more instead of insisting on going out to dinner or ordering in.

BUT I've def let myself go in other ways. I dont get my nails done as much and my eyebrows I'm always 'eh I can go another week'. And shaving, forget about it LOL! I shave don't get me wrong and I'm not that hairy to begin with but I'll just always postpone it until I have to!

LOL this is so me.
xpt the losing 4lbs - I actually gained the 5lbs I lost the week of the wedding and now I am at my normal self.
but ye nails - once a month if that and shaving - what is that? I'm so lazy. but this was me before the wedding
my hair tho is always blown out and I always wear m/u and dress well
so I guess I am same as before the wedding

I definitely did. I have been eating like a teenage boy lately.

ETA: I also think age has played a role in this too. I'm not in my 20's anymore

ditto

Hell yes, but it was bound to happen since I starved 17 lbs. off myself for the wedding.

I think I'm back to my normal weight, I lost a few pounds before wedding working out crazy and eating like a bird but I think I slowed down and eat what I want again.

Re: Have you 'let yourself go' since the wedding?

Definitely not. I play soccer so I'm constantly running around. Besides, I want to be skinnier than my mom (and she's skinny)!

Since starting school again I've actually lost weight. Maybe 5-8 pounds?

Re: Have you 'let yourself go' since the wedding?

It's SO NOT EASY ladies! There is something about the mindset about getting married that I somehow did at the time, but could never do full time.

I had a trainer, got really into bikram yoga, lost a good 15 pounds but thanks to the yoga think it looked like more.

I am totally sticking to the gym, yoga, eating salads every day for lunch, being HEALTHY and trying to eat in MODERATION which is quite an unfamiliar word.. BUT indulging a bit more than i did pre wedding... (ahem nutella obsession)

That said I am up a handful of pounds since the wedding, still feel pretty good but PISSED and ALARMED the scale is going up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To most of you out there i feel your pain!! Just gotta keep on keepin on i guess!

Re: Have you 'let yourself go' since the wedding?

Nope, still the same as before in relation to weight..but havent made it to the gym as often as we like. And I recently became a brunette for a lil while n its just not me/ doesnt fit my personality.
