So since everyone's weddings are over, I feel like we are all always complaining about gaining weight since the wedding. I remember it being so much easier to lose weight before the wedding because the motivation was there: I HAVE TO LOOK GOOD FOR MY WEDDING!
Now that the wedding is over, it's so hard to say no to an extra treat and so easy to 'forget' to workout.
So what is the occasion that's motivating you to lose weight now and is it working?
We're going to Aruba in August and I want to be back to bathing suit ready shape! Also, we hope to start TTC this summer so I want to be thinner before I get pregnant that way I have less to lose after having a baby.

Re: What's your weight loss motivation now?
I gained literally 20 lbs between what I lost for the wedding, and what I gained back. I've never been this heavy in my LIFE. So depressing. It happened because of the most stressful 6 months of my life after the wedding, and NOT exercising at all and eating poorly. Boom, weight. So my main motivation is my health and well being, as well as the fact that I have to be in a bikini in June for our anniversary trip to Disney.

Because I have no money to buy new clothes so I need to make sure I can still fit into the ones I have!

Immediate its needing to fit in any of my dresses by my friends wedding on May 15. Then its wanting to be able to wear all my cute honeymoon clothes this summer.
Ultimately its the fact I had to order a size 16 DB BM dress. I wanted to cry. I want to have to take it to a tailor and it be so big they practically have to remake it. Especially with her friend Taylor and my friend Aggie who are both sticks in the wedding.

Re: What's your weight loss motivation now?
About a two weeks ago, I just got fed up with all the weight I had gained since the wedding and my clothes not fitting--15lbs worth!
I just got a new job too and my overall outlook is a lot better so I am also eating less.
When I quit smoking everytime I wanted to smoke I would say to myself, You have made it so far do you want to throw it away. I do the same with snacking now.
I started riding our excerise bike for 15 minutes every morning and my underwear is fitting better again!
