Unexpected weight

Some people stress eat, some people lose their appetite. I wouldn't necessarily expect either to happen to you though, it is still possible to maintain the same weight while planning a wedding.

For me it was , I lost six lbs the two weeks before my wedding. I gained it back immediately lol I just had so much to do and so much was on my mind I forgot to eat.

I had a friend who just said this happened to her - she lost weight before the wedding from the stress

Yes it happens! It happened to me and now my wedding is in a couple weeks and my wedding dress is a little too big! I'm happily eating and drinking as freely as I want but it is an added stress.

I haven't lost weight from stress, but I broke out in hives. I much rather lose weight lol

I lost about 5 lbs the week before the wedding. I was running around like nuts and there was no time to cook so I would like eat some chips for dinner and call it a night. It came back lol.

Stress can also make you gain wait. I gained like 5lbs the week before my wedding. And I don't lose weight easily normally.

I lost another 4 lbs unexpectedly before the wedding just from being stressed - it's definitely true! My dress was a little big around my back but not enough to cause a problem or for someone to notice.

Yeah I'm nervous because I just want my dress altered already but they're suggesting I wait for this reason. I'd rather just stay the weight I am haha

My tailor keeps telling me this at every alterations appointment! I lead a pretty high stress life already so every time he says this it makes me want to roll my eyes. Anyways he's making my dress on the tighter side as a precaution.

I'm a stress non-eater type of person. Depends on the person

If you're not seeing results from working out 5x a week, I'd suggest tweaking your routine slightly. For example, if you do 30 minutes on the elliptical every day, maybe you tack on an additional 5 - 10 minute jog on the treadmill. Or, if time is an issue, maybe you cut back somewhere in your eating habits.

Even before getting engaged I was regularly going to the gym because it helps with my depression, and after a while your body gets 'used' to the regular workouts and you plateau. Little changes tend to jump start you back into progress.

Good luck!

Calories Out > Calories In = weight loss.

Focus on eating healthy and drinking lots of water.

Sometimes your body will hit a plateau with the same workout routine. Change it up and see if that will break the plateau

Thank you for the tips guys, I'm starting to feel discouraged and like I'm not going to look good in my dress!! This is also paired with nightmares recently so I'm definitely starting to feel defeated!
