After wedding weight gain...

After wedding weight gain...

Hi!
They say after you get married or once you are in a serious relationship, you tend to gain weight.
I hung out with a few friends this weekend that I haven't seen in awhile and noticed that one couple (they are not married, but are pretty serious w/ each other) gained weight. They were both really skinny in their earlier stages of dating and 1 year later..I couldn't believe how much weight they both put on. And, another couple got married early Oct. They were both pretty slim, but I also couldn't believe how much weight she put on especially..

I am just curious to see how many feel or know that they have gained weight post marriage or after being with someone for so long..

Thanks!!

Re: After wedding weight gain...

I put on about 10 pounds since my wedding and after recently hitting a certain number on the scale - I decided to change my ways a bit and start exercising, so i recently lost about 5 so far......

I think the weight gain came from getting comfortable with each other, cooking yummy meals and we have had parties every weekend for the past 2 months - so that hasn't helped either

Re: After wedding weight gain...

i gained about 7 pounds after the wedding. i finally joined ww at the end of oct to lose it. so far i've lost 7.5 pounds. so i'm glad to be back to my wedding weight.

Re: After wedding weight gain...

The last week or so before the wedding I lost about 8lbs. I gained those pounds back but have maintained my basic weight.

I have been trying to lose it for the past three weeks - nothing. So I am giving up until Jan 1.

Re: After wedding weight gain...

I gain 8 lbs since the wedding and I feel huge. I was a little to skinny for my frame at my wedding so my BMs say I look healthy but I feel like a house. After the holidays it is back to the gym with a vengeance.
