Our weddings are getting closer and closer...

Original post by dancinmyazoff

And I know there's alot of brides who want to do a little dieting before there wedding...myself included. Now that 08 is quickly approaching do you think you're actually going to reach your goal weight by your wedding???

I know that I need to step up a little bit. I haven't been watching what I'm eating as good as I should be...I've kind of just been eating whatever I want and being a little lazy with working out.

I'm trying to get myself to feel motivated. That's it I need to look through the VS magazine now to motivate myself...airbrushed or not they all look better than me lol!!!!!

i'll never reach my goal weight!!!! I've been trying to reach it for 5 years!!!

but i'm happy where I'm at now...if i could just lose the flab on my arms and tighten my tummy by the wedding i'll be happy

good luck!



I know how you feel, I don't think I'll ever reach my 'goal'....whatever I've weighed I've always wanted to be thinner

I finally realized who you remind me of...Trishelle from the Real World, you definitely look like her in your avatar!



Thank you!!! I couldn't figure out who she looked like!!!

I also agree... Even when I was 105 pounds, I was like, oh, i can be skinnier. If I can get back to 110, i'll be happy.

Yes. I was doing so well... I gained 8 pounds since the start of summer and I am DETERMIND to take that off!!! I was so happy at that weight... my clothes are starting to feel a little tight and i don't want it to get out of control ever again, so come this weekend, i'm going back to all my 100 calorie snacks, yogurts, fruits, veggies and grilled chicken!!! I'm excercising three times a week, too... so i don't know where this weight is coming from



You've put on your winter weight to keep you warm...that's what I call it lol!!!



LOL!!! How come it started coming in august, then?





Ummm......you heard it was going to be a cold winter so you started early







I like your thinking!

I honestly know I don't need to lose so much weight. I could probably just tone up. I used to weight like 95 in highschool. Then college came and I went to about 105 lbs then sophmore year was bad for me i went up to 120 and then went back to 105-110 that summer before junior year.

Now 2 years later I think I am pretty much around the same weight 107lbs I think was the last time i weighted myself. HOWEVER I have the big thighs and I want to lose some inches in them. Because my legs have always been those thicker dancer legs i feel I can never wear dresses or skirts and i hate myself naked hahahaha

so I am trying to go to the gym 3 xs a week and also eat healthier by cutting calories it is just kinda hard



if you want to tone your thighs/legs.....do lunges!!!! and squats (for the booty). I HATE doing them but I started taking a class at my gym and the instructor MAKES us do lunges across the room holding 5 lb weights....which STUNK but after a month FH noticed that my legs were more toned and leaner......

and then he got in between them

Being a teacher I always gain more weight in the summer when I am off becuase I eat out of boredom.

But now that school started I am doing a lot better. I try and get to the gym 4x a week (doesn't happen every week) and I have been watching what I eat.

As soon as cheerleading ends in January I will go into super mode because I will have more time.

I need to lose 20 lbs. I gained so much when I quit smoking, but I know I can do it


Congrats for quitting smoking!!!

first off love the last line about fh

and thank you for the advice. actually yesterday at the gym i was doing lunges with 5lb weights. but i did them standing in place i will def try them by moving across the floor...and squats do you do them against the wall or just in place?

you could be gaining muscle!!! ask someone at the gym to do a body fat % measure!!!





I guess I can't get past the scale. does that make sense?

Re: Our weddings are getting closer and closer...

I am thinking about joining a gym but I do not know if I will stick with it. I tried exercising on my own, walking and stuff, but I don't keep up with it. I am very unmotivated when it comes to exercise, always have been. I wish I had room for a treadmill in my apt. but I don't have room for even an exercise ball.

Re: Our weddings are getting closer and closer...

we do them in place.... we squat and then jump up from the squat position then go back to squat...

it gets your heartrate up too..which is good cardio as well.

i also do some against the wall with a workout ball against my lower back and my legs apart and far out ahead of me...you never want your knees to go over your ankle

hahaha glad you enjoyed my Fh story

Re: Our weddings are getting closer and closer...

I would LOOOOOOOVE to get back down to 114 but I eat too much....its not lack of exercise because I teach 7 classes a week. ITs just eating!!! Idk...its like those last 5-7 lbs will not come off unless i friggin STARVE myself which SUUUUUUUUUUCKS BAAAAAAAAAAALLS!!!


Well maybe now that I can't eat chocolate, dairy or greasy foods because of my skin I might lose some weight We shall see...I think I probably just need to bump up my cardio and vary my workout. AND BUY A REALLY STRONG GIRDLE!!!

I HATE THE GYM. I joined jazzercise and I love it. Is 45 minutes of dance aerobics with 15 minutes of floor training. It's the best thing ever. I've been doign it on and off for like 10 years
