Did you or are you dieting before the wedding?

Original post by Sandradv121

I am training so hard that i am exhausted lol! I really need a firm tush, arms and abs. I think i'm more scared of a bikini on my HM than my wedding dress...

I was just curious to see if you were dieting or if I am bring ridiculous about my regiman (my family seems to think so)

Oh and I'm eating a diet of protien, veggies and fruit and getting my carbs from beans, oatmeal and anything other than bread. My skin,hair, nails, and body are thanking me. They look and feel great. Just sleepy...

Not so much dieting as watching what I eat. I eat a salad for lunch now instead of a sandwhich and watch my portions at dinner.

I have been working out but I always see very, very slow results.

I actually started Weight Watchers about a month before I got engaged and it's really been working for me. I didn't realize how much food i was eating!

I might try to tone up a little too, especially on my arms, so I don't blow the candles out when I move my arms

I'm on Jenny Craig. I lost more than 30 lbs...which was necessary b/c I looked like a blimp! Now I just need to exercise to tone up my body, as my stomach looks like a flabby mess and my arms arent much better!

what are you doing and what are you eating?



Ok here is my routine...this is meant to prevent burnout but b/w running around and this, I love to sleep!!!


6:30 am and 6:30 Pm- strength excerise or cardio 30-40 min (i mix it up to prevent boredom. Now I am working on focused areas rather than combo. I'll either do one or the other in the morning and evening, so technically I'm doing 2 workouts. if i have time, I'll do them together)

So this is my schedule:

Mondays- upper body/cardio/Abs
Tuesday- Lower body/Cardio/Abs
Wednes- abs/cardio
Thurs-upper body/cardio/Abs
Friday- Lower body/Cardio/Abs
Saturday- Cardio

I am seeing AWESOME results, I'm just tired. It could be my period coming too. But no pain no gain.

My motto: YOU GET WHAT YOU PUT IN

And hopefully I get it!



Whoa your goin in the am and pm? That is awesome goood for you! I would take a day off in there to give your muscles a day to recover. So your 30 - 40min in the am and 30-40min in pm? Your def gonna see amazing results on your wedding day!

i think a good majority of us dieted or are at least watching/watched our weight for the wedding...

i'm on my healthy ideal weight already so it's a matter of maintaining it (which, i think is harder!)

i'm just doing more exercise though.

Same here. Just wanted to tell you about Eziekel bread///have you heard of it?

You can buy it at Mrs. Greens, whole foods, trader joes....
It needs to be kept frozen as it has no additives/preservatives...it is pure fiber.

It's a good alternative if you are craving bread.

Yes, started WW two weeks ago, and started walking. Kinda of embarrassed because my walking sound kinda lame compared to some of you..but I am a total couch potato..so I am just getting used to moving again.

I dont want to look at my wedding pics and honeymoon pics and be ashamed of how bad I looked.

I haven't started anything yet. A few months before the wedding I'm going to start eating healthier and hopefully not be such a lazy a$$ and exercise. I don't wanna have my chubby belly on my honeymoon!!

same here, just really watching what i eat. i cut out all my snacking items (chips, cookies, etc.) stopped eating crappy really late at night (really bad habit of mine) and just choosing healthier options.

sure am. Especially since I'm at 6 mos. now. I have lost 17 and want to lose 45 more but realistically I think I may be able to lose 30 more before the wedding.
