I didn't get skinny for my wedding.....

I've been working out 3-4 times a week for several months and I haven't lost weight, but I have lost lots of body fat (about 2%/month). Same weight but muscles are replacing fat. My stomach is still there though.

I am trying to tone more than lose, even though I need to lose a few. One day FH asked why was I worried about when he obviously loved me how I am. Pictures honey...it is all about those pictures that will haunt you FOR EVUH!!!!

Yeah, this was totally me. When I got engaged I wanted to lose 30 lbs. I ended up starting my "diet" like 2 months before my wedding and lost 6 lbs. Then I stopped dieting and started eating whatever in the hell I wanted. I think the week before my wedding I had McDonald's like 3 times in a week and I never do that! In my defense, I was busy as hell the week before and didn't have time to meal plan. Not to mention, broke. That dollar menu was callin' my name! My dress still fit and we had an awesome time that day so eff it.

Lol Carmen. It reminds me of the movie Sandlot.

I didn't quite hit my goal weight for my wedding. But, I've put back all the weight and then some this year. Oh well...

Bahahhaah these pictures are killing me! I should be out walking now......but instead im drinking coffee and watching million dollar arm. I have eight months to loose twenty pounds. So basically I need to loose 2.5 lbs a month. But honestly I have a corset dress and at this point I just want my arms skinnier. How do I do that??!! Eat cookies and burgers but get skinny arms??

Sally- Shake weight-duh

Yup I'm in the same boat! Buttttttt as long as I fit in my dress day of IDGAF anymore =]

I am a little less than a year out but started working out in June...goal was/is to lose to 35lbs before wedding...so far, I've lost 10lbs...I think I should have lost more by now especially since I bust my butt working out!! But I just can't resist at times.

I just don't want to look like a marshmallow on my wedding day!!!!

I wanted to drop down to 160lbs for the wedding but went down to 185lbs but was 195lbs on my wedding day. Oh well. For the most part I didn't look/feel fat which was what I was trying to accomplish at the end of the day.

Well this thread kinda links back to my thread about 6 weeks ago. I started bootcamp 6 weeks ago with the plan of losing 20 lbs then going dress shopping. Well needless to say, I DIDN'T lose 20 lbs but, I'm still going dress shopping. I've officially joined the IDGAF club! Plus I ate some ice cream last night :-)

This happened to me.....my goal was 50lb and only lost 25 in the beginning but managed to keep it off. I HATE working out, so I just ate better. Im 16 days out and say I don't care! Im not obese by any means so oh well. My dress is a tie up, and makes me look SUPER skinny....just my arms are what I stress out about. But thats why I will do some creative poses to hide them lol. I bought bikinis for my honeymoon (FHs request since I haven't worn one in years), and im wearing them regardless! ! I'm in the IDGAF club!

Totally me. I gained 20 or so over the past couple of years due to some major life events/stress. I'm not big by any means, but I've had a hard time adjusting to dressing my new size. I wanted to get back down for the wedding, but every attempt has been a fail. FH swears up and down that he likes me better now than when I was thin, so I'm trying to love myself as I am.

I killed myself in the gym, but then pretty much ate whatever I wanted. The whole thing was counter-productive lol. Oh well.

I have a little over 10 months before the wedding and I'm really hoping to lose some weight. Not even so much for the wedding, but just because I'm the heaviest I've been since right after having my daughter 7 years ago FH just bought me Zumba (at my request) so now to find time to actually do it between working full time, going to school, raising a 7 year old and spending time with FH. At least he said he'd try it with me and my daughter loves to dance. Hopefully I can lose some of the 50 lbs I'd like to lose.

Same thing here...I have lost about 20 lbs, but I tore my meniscus in my right knee 5 weeks ago, and am only now able to get back to the gym (1 month before the wedding). Luckily only gained back 5 lbs...but I'm way off my original goal...

Luckily I'm wearing a ballgown so tummy will be hid and because I haven't been able to use my legs, my arms have toned up..but no where near my goal...

I'm trying so hard to lose weight. 45lbs down since April 2014, goal is 100lbs down by next October. I'm so scared I won't make it!

My dress fit when I ordered it in January. It won't zip up now. I don't know how much weight I've gained but I can attribute it to the prednisone I've been taking since July for allergies. I went on a sugar detox last month and I'm trying to continue eating that way with small cheats and hope my dress fits. Otherwise, I'm going to have to shell out $$$ to alter it. :-/

Agree with Staci! Two thumbs up!!

Staci's message is nice. Sometimes I start feeling very desperate, and FH just asks me, "Why are you so hard on yourself?" I think we are all hard on ourselves, sometimes.

That being said, I still have 11 months to make my goal. I don't want to go crazy low, so I'm setting my goal at a reachable 20lbs. Well I've lost about 5 so far, so it's 15lbs now. I've always struggled with my weight, but when FH and I started dating I was (at least) 15lbs lighter, and I want to get back there. Even if the rest of the weight doesn't come off, I'm getting back into healthier habits!

And I hope, even if I don't make my goal, I will be balanced and calm about it.
