Vent -feeling overwhelmed and gross

So it is 2 months until the wedding and I feel like there is so much left to do! We are also buying a house and between both things and lack of money Im so stressed out. I'm driving FH crazy he is always asking me whats wrong because I get teary eyed at the drop of a hat.... On top of everything I have been stress eating and when I look in the mirror I am just disgusted with myself. FH is supportive emotionally and working really hard for the money we need, but I do 99% of the running around and phone calls. I seriously wish we would have just eloped sometimes!

I wish we would've eloped at least once a week

It gets better, or so I'm told

Oh, I feel ya ... I never wish we eloped, but I wish we had more time. We've had SOO many setbacks once the ring went on my finger- between my father getting sick, then passing away, and FH having to switch jobs, putting all the financial responsibility on me for months, to my car accident, etc etc etc ...

That's why we are all here, to be each other's support system. Feel free to let it all out to us!

I am in the same boat. We just closed on a house and withe wanting to redo the floors and professional paint on top of buying the house and all the wedding costs I feel like crawling into a hole and coming out when everything is over and settled with. Just motor through it...that is what I am doing. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger!

hi there... at around the time where you're at, i still had so much to do (had not yet visited florists, had no makeup trials, had not coordinated transportation, not taken engagement photos, not to mention programs, menus, and a whole lot more. PLUS, we had just closed on a house a couple months before - which was 10x more stressful than this wedding - but ya know what? all the hard work that went into making it all happen was totally worth it in the end. oh, and i, too, was unhappy with how i looked... i had gained weight since i had purchased my gown... but none of that mattered on my wedding day. i felt beautiful in my gown regardless, i was stress free (by that point, everything that i could have possibly done was done), and the only thing left to do was to enjoy the day. and that will happen to you, too - you'll see! just hang in there and keep running around and making calls and giving it your all... you'll appreciate all your efforts in the end - trust me! :)

You need to BREATHE! Get on Excel and write everything out so you see it as a whole! Go back to the Gym and treat it as your Meditation time to breathe and clear your head! And eat healthier even if it's more then usual when you put good things into your body you feel better!

OH! And tell FH you need a little help! It's alright to admitt your not Superwoman! I do my best but here and there we all need help!

I feel the exact same way especially the stress eating , no gym feeling gross part!! The last thing you can focus on sometimes is exercising and eating right when you have so much else going on!!

You need to take care of yourself! No one else is going to do it! It's your body make sure you do right by it! You need to set aside time for just you!

Yeah I'm usually good I was eating right and working out alot and the past month i've just been unfocused ,i already lost weight , my dress is big, but i just want to lose a little bit more cause you cant hide in a bikini!!
It really is just about changing your mindset, i'm taking time for myself tomorrow and hopefully relaxing and clearing my head so i can get back on the ball!
