My plan this weekend is to join LA Fitness. I'm back in the groove of doing an hour of cardio in the morning before work on my treadmill and I would like to do some of the classes in the evening after work.

I have been avoiding this thread because my weight loss has been such a tedious process. FH and I have been on and off constantly!! From the end of 2012, FH has lost about 30 pounds and I have lost 8. I fluctuate 3 pounds up and down almost every week because we generally cheat 1/week. This week is no different and we are cheating today. We can't help it!! We love to eat. Tomorrow is my 5 month mark till the wedding and I am hoping I can lose what I need to lose by then even with the sporadic cheat days. We shall see. I have stopped worrying about it, if I am this weight when I get married so be it!! I want to try but not obsess anymore. I am who I am and FH loves ME.

That's 100% the most important thing!

I've been having the same mentality lately. When I first started I would go to the gym 5x per week and be really strict with what I ate. I always had a cheat day in there somewhere b/c I just don't have the will power to go cold turkey on my beloved carbs lol. But lately if I get to the gym 2-3x per week I'm ok with that. I'm trying to be less obsessed with numbers and more about finding a way that I can incorporate being active and healthy with still enjoying an occasional splurge and not feeling guilty! I don't think I could maintain such a strict lifestyle so I'm still trying to figure out a good way to balance everything and be healthy in a way that works for me.

Same. FH went running Sat morning had a healthy breakfast but then we went to Great South Bay brewery and did a tasting. It was a good thing at least I worked out and ate healthy. I am sure I gained the .2 lbs I lost this week lol. Fh was unmotivated to work out with me yesterday we had a vendor apt to sample favors, then went out east to some more breweries and ate out. It's a good thing we did a little bit of walking. Back on it today and going running after work.
