I've packed on 4 pounds since the wedding and feel like a blob.

I gained like 7 pounds between the week before the wedding to the end of the honeymoon but was (luckily ) hit with a stomach virus shortly after that knocked me back down.

honestly i think the hardest thing is the initial jump back into the working out/eating well thing but once ur in it u feel better about urself.....whats gonna be hard for me is if i dont lose anything the first week (which is my pms week so i might not ) cause we all know losing the first week makes for a great motivation-booster...i hope i hope

Do you know what is not a great motivation-booster? Having to read the word yodel over and over

I totally agree with you the hardest part is getting started. I used to love the gym I want to be like that again.

Well, I didn't gain anything on the honeymoon because of the heat and we were running around alot. I did gain 5 lbs once we got back and I've lost 3 of those so 2 more to go before I get back to my wedding day weight.

Off to get some chinese food..that should help my weight loss

dam you hostess 2 for $5 sales!!!

the water in Mexico on Day 2 infiltrated my system therefore I lost 7lbs on my HM!!

but the 2 for $5 sale will surely bring them back on..

Oh yes... the water from Mexico was an instant diet for me for 3 f-in weeks!!! I thought I was going to die..

So.... I am about 5lbs up from my wedding weight.. not bad.. I can deal

Re: Weight gain since the wedding? 'fess up!

no, I've actually lost a little. I was fat at my wedding. I gained ten or fifteen pounds in the last year through illness, and didn't have the energy to lose it before the wedding. So now I'm trying to take it off, slowly, before the fall comes.

I've gained about 3 pounds and have been slacking on going to the gym. We should start a Newlywed 'Eat Right and Exercise' thread (not necessarily weight loss b/c we all know you can weigh more and be in better shape...although I still like seeing smaller numbers on the scale...)

That's not a bad idea! I'd be up for it

Almost 10 pounds, but luckily I'm tall so it hasn't changed my size. In my defense, I started a new job this year and was too busy and exhausted to get to the gym. I've been going to the gym regularly for the past 4 weeks and I'm starting to see a slight difference. Hopefully I can keep it up.

Re: Weight gain since the wedding? 'fess up!

I put on about 5-6 pounds.....but we also just came back from our honeymoon and we ate and drank EVERYTHING!!
It was worth it!

Re: Weight gain since the wedding? 'fess up!

No weight gain yet. We're remodeling our house, so I'm super stressed, andhave no desire to eat. I'm sure once everything is done, (hopefully by the end of August ) I'll beback on track.

Re: Weight gain since the wedding? 'fess up!

I've gained about 2-3 pounds since the wedding. DH is looking to buy a treadmill soon, hopefully that will give me the motivation to get in shape, because my lazy a$$ will never make it to the gym!

Re: Weight gain since the wedding? 'fess up!

I've gain 4 lbs. on my honeymoon. AND I went to the gym 2x in 2 weeks in Hawaii! LOL

I havent really been able to get back in gear with my diet - and not going to the gym doesn't help
