Well, it's time to start getting back in shape for the wedding so this week I started my workouts again. (I haven't hit the actual gym yet because they are all so crowded this week!) But now I don't have time for ANYTHING!!! By the time I'm done working out it's 7:15pm, not only am I tired, but then it's time to make dinner and eat so now it's 8:30pm. Before I know it, the night is over and it's time for bed and NO wedding stuff is done! Do you girls do the majority of your wedding stuff on the weekends? I used to be able to get so much done during the week, but now I see I won't be able to! And my weekends are jam-packed as it is... !
PS - I wish I could get my butt outta bed at 5:30am to workout but that just ain't happening!

Re: NO TIME!! How do you girls manage this?
But there's only so much you can do at work! I mean I do it too, but all I can do is make phone calls and do a little online shopping. You can't exactly meet with vendors and go dress hunting at work!! Ooooohhhhh....sigh.... the stress is really starting to hit me now...

Stress - tell me about it! I'm an out of state bride, so I have to cram in trips home to New York so I can meet with my vendors. It sux! Just make a list of things that you need to do, and try to get done what you can. Stay organized and you'll be fine

Me three---
but there is also after work, after dinner & weekends. Its all teh tiem right now, b/c I'm a little behind.
So I totally agree with you. I too need to start working out, I haven't sicne the summer.
I changed my work ours to 8 30 to 4 30 so I could go to the gym across the street, but it takes me about an hour to get home , then make dinner, so not much else will get done.
I've had so much to do this week, that I have been going straight home. And I've been staying up so late (mostly goign online) so I haven't been coming in on time, so I've been staying late, and getting stuck in that cycle.
Jimmysbride- we are getting married the same day--if you keep telling me about your workouts, I'll get competitive & go too!

JimmysBride,
I know what you mean, i am going through the same situation!!!
I am working damn near full time hours and I registered for a class that is starting the ending of this month and I want to encorporate a work out schedule in to my life for the big day. I go to the gym, during lunch hour to start a little weight training, then I might return again in the afternoon, to run on the treadmill. I figured start now in Jan. See results by May!!

i hear ya!
i work full time, tutor 3 nights of the week, and have a masters class 1 night a week. i work out every other day, or as much as i can, but i work out at home. so its quicker. wedding stuff i save for right before bed or on the weekends. plus m FH helps out too, s that works!!

I do a lot of my research at work, especially when bosses aren't around.

Hi Ladies,
I try to do my wed. stuff either at work, or during the afternoon hours. Most vendors don't open till late anyway.
As for as working outs, I notice when you start a good work out program your body lets out endorphin which gives you a burst of energy, to do much, much more activities!!!!
GIRLS.........SO LETS JUST DO IT!
