Almost The Big Day Excercise Thread Check In - 1/20

Ok ladies :) So i have noticed im not the only one working my tail off to get into shape for the big day!!! I decided to steal this from the 07 boards!!!
I definitly agree that it helps to have support when it comes to working out, eating right and just getting into shape...... so ladies, each day (ill post in the mornings!) check in! tell us all how ur doing! its great to feel support and see so many other girls doing the same thing u r!!!!

If u r having a great day and realized you lost a lot of weight be proud and share it with excitement!!

if FH is on ur case to eat junk, or you just slipped that day and went off ur diet, vent!

we r all on the same page and with support will be able to keep each other going and working for the same goal:

To be the most fit on our wedding day!!!!!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cant wait to hear how your all doing!!!

Love this!!

So I was doing great, 2 or 3 weeks of apples, grilled chicken. So my mom comes over, opens my fridge, decides I must be secretly starving or completely incapable of cooking, and brings me TWO trays of lasagna

i will remind u every day if needed!!!!!!!!

DO NOT DRINK THE GODIVA HOT CHOCOLATE WITH THE WOLE MILK.............do they make like low fat hot cocoa with skim milk? maybe that would do the trick of getting rid of any cravings!

OK here goes:

I've been working out once a week w/a trainer since last spring. I'm all or nothing when it comes to exercise and diet-so its either I'm at the gym 5 days a week or only once
I'm in good shape already (5'7 and a size 6-8, more of an 8 during the winter)

So here's my plan which is all about BALANCE...

gym 3-4 times a week
clean eating, no carbs/sugar after 5
1-2 cheat meals a week, eaten before 5pm and on a gym day

I am a South Beach Diet devotee (I was actually 10 pounds thinner when I met FH but it was by eating no carbs/sugar for almost 5 months-very dangerous, and I was too thin) so I'm living on Phase 2 and 3 until I find I need to cut back more. When I met FH I lived soley on Phase 1 which is pretty bad for you..no more of that!

Since my dress is mermaid, there needs to be minimal body fat, just done the safe way this time..

So 4 days of cardio and 1 day of weight training/circuit training will do it for me.
