I think, I am really loosing it, I went to the gym for lunch to hit the weights now, I want to run on the tread this afternoon. I just feel like I will look my best if I work out early enough before the big day.!!
Is there other gym rats out there? If so, how often to you go?

Re: Is any brides going GYM CRAZY
I have gotten back into going to the gym. When I am on the machine, whenever I start to get frustrated I say to myself, 'Push it, the wedding is a little more than six months away.' I also think of my honeymoon and chant 'BIKINI!!!' to myself. LOL!! That one word always helps me kick it up a notch.
Every morning at 6 and then again after work! LOVE the gym, such a great way to relieve stress and keep you in shape for the wedding at the same time.

CARDIO CARDIO CARDIO
It's totally not all about the cardio if you are looking to tone... Gotta hit the weights and do cardio, and keep a low carb diet... You should see results if you keep to a rigid plan.
I KNOW.. If you look above, I was quoting someone by ADDING that not only should they lift weights, but they should do cardio..
Sorry MarcellaBella, sometimes this board goes a little nuts

LOL, motivation and also, as everyone knows, my FH is away so I have work and school and it fills time nicely. I am working on getting my Masters in Education and would like to be a trainer as well because it would be a great way to earn some extra cash.......esp if we live on LI

Re: Is any brides going GYM CRAZY
I'm a gym fanatic too! For about 6 years, I go 5 times a week, for about 40 minutes... GREAT GREAT GREAT stress relief! I get REALLY grumpy if I don't go...
For ladies looking to tone up, I HIGHLY suggest pilates or yoga... I bought Winsor pilates a few months ago, and it's truly amazing!

Re: Is any brides going GYM CRAZY
I just got back from the gym. Our wedding is 17 months away, and we're getting a head start on things. I go everyday for about an hour and FH goes either once or twice a day. We've also started eating better (larger lunch and a 'big salad' for dinner little or no carbs after 3) and cutting out the alcohol (except for an occasional glass of wine). FH has lost nearly 30 lbs since the new year and I've lost 12. Already people are telling us that we won't keep it off, but thats just giving me more motivation to prove them wrong!. 7 more lbs and I'll be at my 'dream weight'.

everyone says that and I surprise myself sometimes, I have two jobs and I am a full time graduate student! I guess its just my way of relaxing and I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Re: Is any brides going GYM CRAZY
I am not going gym crazy, but I did go out and buy an elliptical trainor and weights. I work out as often as I possibly can but it is really hard working full time and having late hours.

I have no motivation either, it is just I am trying to get into the habit of going everyday...or every other day!!!! In the beginning you will be tired...but just try to do a little at a time and you will see results.......
Get a gym partner.............I go with one during my lunch hour, but I want to go again after work, because sometimes he spends the whole time talking!!!!!!!
