How much weight have you gained since getting married?
Original post by nov04LIbride
I gained 10 pounds in 6 months! I can't believe it. This is more than I have ever weighed before. I was always steady at the same weight no matter what I ate. Now I am going crazy at the gym and really dieting to get it back off, but it is sooo much harder. So easy eating pizza with DH all the time to PUT IT ON, so hard to get it off...

I gained about 15-20 lbs. I am so disgusted with myself!!! But, I have since lost 7 lbs. It's easier to gain then lose.

Re: How much weight have you gained since getting married?
I don't weigh myself, but my clothes have gone from loose to tight to loose to tight over the past 8 months. I gained in the beginning of the marriage (first 2 months) because we were home every night together and cooking together. Then I lost some when DH started grad school and I started back to my night school job and we were on opposite schedules so we didn't eat together and didn't eat as much and I excercised more. Then the holidays attacked us. So I had to get back on track. Now I am unemployed and so I exercise every day and I think I am might be losing again.
DH, sadly, has gained and he isn't happy because it has made him tired and forgetful and a snoring nightmare!!!

Before I was preggo, I stayed at the same weight for three years. Maybe I've gained 4-5 pounds but that's nothing. Now that I'm pregnant, I'm hoping that most of it is baby weight!

Re: How much weight have you gained since getting married?
Yup. About 8-10 lbs from me . I too was in denial. In denial that since I was doing yoga every morning before work, that I didn't have to watch what I eat at all. Yoga is good exercise, but it's not aerobic.
So, I broke down and started my diet last Monday. So far I've lost 2-3 lbs. I have a doctor's appointment in early May, so that's motivation to me to stick with it. (I hate getting on their scales.)

Re: How much weight have you gained since getting married?
I've actually lost 18 pounds in the last 5 months (well 8 pounds since i got married twon months ago)... my friend at work was teasing me saying that Married life was making me lose my appetite
i havent worked out or anything... i think its just b/c i left my old job (which i now realize how unhealthy i used to eat when i was there)
but yeah,,, i still have a LONG way to go... i should start actually dieting and working out.. that may actually help

I weigh less than I did when we got married.
My weight has always been pretty stable - having weighed about the same for the last 10 years. Don't know how or why I've been losing a few pounds lately, but I'm not complaining.

Oh MY GOODNESS! I am so glad you posted this topic. I am so upset because I have gained 6 pounds in 7 months. I even went up a bra size.I feel heavy and gross. It's in part because of the cooking.
I thought i was the only one.

Anyone that is interested I recommend checking it out- besides exercising in the morning, it isn't so bad!

Re: How much weight have you gained since getting married?
MY weight has been all over the place in the last few years. When I first started dating DH, which in all fairness was 10 years ago, I weighed 102 pounds. Then I started putting on weight when I turned 21. I was at my heaviest last year at 132 and went down to about 115 for my wedding. Now I'm about 125ish and I would really like to get back down to 115.
