POLL: random weight loss question

Ideally, how much weight would you like to lose before your big day?

i've lost about 5 pounds so far and I'd like to lose about 5-10 more ... but these are the most stubborn 5-10 pounds ever!

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

As of this morning i really only wanna lose 1.6 more pounds - but i NEED to tone up somehow. We bought an elliptical last week so i've been trying to do that and sit ups, but its hard not having a gym (mine closed jan 1st) and not having time - i'm outta the house for 14 hours usually each day!

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I started in late January and figured I would try to lose 15-20 lbs..I def think I can cause I've already lost about 10!

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I've lost close to 30 pounds since last summer. I did that by just going to the gym and doing the treadmill. I haven't gone to the gym all winter long, but I'm slowly getting back into it. It as easier to go when FH would go with me, but he got a new job and new work schedule, so he can't go with me anymore.

I'm at 125 lbs now....would like to get under 120 lbs soon so I can look good for e-pics, b-pics, etc, and wedding of course.

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I put 1-10 lbs but really what I want to do is tone up more than anything. So, my real goal is to lose inches and gain muscle which will likely make me gain weight (since muscle weighs more than fat). I'm not one for the scale unless someone has extreme weight issues - I don't think seeing those numbers helps accurately reflect how tone/fit/healthy you are. I'm 119 5'5' right now so I could easily think I'm in great shape. But I run up one flight of stairs and get tired so I'm not in great shape. Thanks to Jillian Michaels shred, though, I'm improving every day!

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I lost almost 50 pounds about three years ago and have been maintaining. But I've put these pesky 5 pounds back on and they refuse to go away, lol. I'd like to get them off again.

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I actually feel pretty comfortable at my current weight...I don't hate my body at all and I have been maintaining this weight for over a year, so I think its healthy.

BUUUUUUUUUUT...my dress is a sample and its ~1/2 a size too small...so I'd love to drop 5-8lbs so they have to take it in instead of letting it out. Its been really hard to motivate myself to do it...I like how I look. But the idea of them letting it out makes me really nervous...I'd rather not have to deal with the 'what ifs' going around my head.

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I originally wanted to lose about 10 pounds. But that didn't happen, nad I have since given up and just accepted my body.

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I lost 10 lbs since the end of Jan and gained three.....so Id like to lose 13 lbs before may 23 (my first dress fitting)

Re: POLL: random weight loss question

I want to lose 15-20lbs.

FH tells me I'm nuts and not to lose that much, but I was at that weight a few years before I met him, and I know I can get back there. I would be happy to lose inches though and tone up a bit more. Just have to be consistent with the gym. I S UCK lately!!
