I've put on a little weight. I can't help it - it's hard to lose weight when you're happy. Since the wedding in May I've been doing a little exercise here and there but I didn't really like it. I've always been able to gain and lose weight pretty easily. But it seems that when you get married the weight comes to stay!!!!!
The other day my dad came over to see me at work because he had never been to my workplace. When he saw me he said "You have put on weight!" His expression told me that he was not kidding. He proceeded to give me weight loss tips :) I was grateful that he told me though because it woke me up to reality. That morning I had tried to put on a skirt that I really like and boy oh boy was it tight. I could hardly walk right!!! So I guess God used him to give me a wake up call. And since he has been down this road before he gave me some pretty good tips.
One of my New Year resolutions is to work out three times a week which I've been doing. However, my eating habits were not good at all. I kept telling myself that I should eat healthy food but I had never gotten round to it but when my dad said I had put on a few I got serious!!!!! I've been eating salad and sandwiches this week and so far so good :) No more brownies (sob), no more fries (sob, sob!) No more big meals :(

I've been using a dance video to exercise but I was doing the easy stuff. Yesterday, I did the hard core exercises and boy did I sweat!!!!

I was beginning to feel like a moving bus!!!!! No kidding! I feel really heavy and I realised I just have to get up and do something about it. It's not entirely about the weight though - I wasn't feeling healthy either so I need to get into good shape. So I'm looking forward to losing the weight and feeling healthier.
I hope that I'll be able to say that I've lost some weight in about a month or so. I'll keep you posted. I'm going to weigh myself today and see how heavy I am. ( Not looking forward to it!)
This is me a few months before I got married:
And this is after 7 months of marriage:
Are any of you trying to lose some weight and get into shape?

I don't see a difference! You still look super skinny! But I feel you on the extra married pounds... I've started a new workout this week. I need to stop eating as much as Matt! lol
I know what you mean, Kathy. They eat so much and suck you into their eating patterns - not cool!
def. trying to get back into shape! i'm with Kathy ... i need to stop eating as much as Sean!
p.s. i think you still look the same! skinny mini! :)
Seriously..its not as bad as you think!!!we who have the experience of being big, can tell ur still in the safe range..lol! all i tink u shud do is regulate it right there and loose abit just until u feel healthy coz dats key..but otherwise, dont beat urself about it..just increase metabolism for easier food digest and hence consistent body weight.
i dont really think you have put on that much weight love... but i also think keeping fit is essential... i need to start working out again. just to keep fit. i'm so lazy these days its sad.....
