Wedding Weight Loss - Disney Style

[Tabetha]

Ugh, bad weigh in today. I'm up 3 lbs. I've basically put on a pound a day for the last three days.

I blame Aunt Flo, who's due any day.

Aunt Flo will totally do it to you! I stop eating salt atleast 2 days before my period comes, that has helped some. Last week I only lost .4 pounds so I am hoping for 2 or so tomorrow!

here is a tip!!

Take some water pills on the cruise!! The food is WAY salty and I took them to keep from swelling..worked great!! All my friends had swollen ankles and toes but mine was fine!

I gained about 5#'s on the cruise, but so far have lost 3 of it..pretty good for 7 days on a cruise with nothing but food around!!

 

[Goldeelox9]

What kind of water pills did you take? Did you pee all day long?

 

[DisneyDmbNut]

Diruex...no..I didn't pee all day

 

[Goldeelox9]

Oh I am deffinatly getting some! Awesome Thank you!

 

[Goldeelox9]

Weigh in went well today! I lost 2.8 pounds.....that makes me at 33.2 pounds total!

 

[Tabetha]

Way to go! That's amazing!

 

[Tabetha]

Down 1.8 lbs this week, so that's good!
I'm meeting with a personal trainer this week to go over my goals.

 

[Goldeelox9]

That is great! I wish I had time to excercise. After work, I just have a hard time fitting it in. I need to start walking (which I hate...damn Flat Feet) to get ready for WDW!

 

[Goldeelox9]

Tonights Weigh in........... I lost 2.8 pounds again...Bringing my total to 36 pounds! DF lost 3.6 and he is now at 44.8 pounds!

GO LISA!!!

I weighed this morning..back to my precruise/ vr weight!!

 

[Goldeelox9]

Way to Go Betsy! That is great...I hope it doesn't take me much time to get back to my Pre Cruise weight after the cruise and honeymoon!

 

[DisneyDmbNut]

Lisa..what day is your wedding on the cruise? Mine was day 5 or 7 so I had to be careful

not THAT careful, I still had chocolate souffle and desserts..just not alot of "extra" food like snacks by the pool

and like I said before...salt is heavy so bring water pills!

 

[Goldeelox9]

I am so buying the water pills! Our Wedding is the 4th, we are heading to WDW on the 1st and get on the Cruise on the 2nd. So I only need to be a little careful! LOL

Mind if I crash?

My BF and I aren't engaged yet, but we pretty much know what date we want to get married; 12-8-2010. We were going to do 2009, but decided we could use the extra year to save money. Plus that date is exactly 70 years after my grandparents were married! That gives me 2 1/2 years to lose the weight I need to. I want to lose 150 pounds, but I'm nervous about it.

See last time I tried to lose weight, I went extreme a bit. I was eating 200 calories a day and 6 hoodia pills a meal. Obviously that didn't turn out well, I had a stroke December 23rd 2006. I fully recovered though, and I'm very lucky but I didn't really lose any weight that way just a few brain cells lol.

So anyway. This time, I think maybe trying WW would help keep me on track to make sure I didn't go to extreme again. How much does the meetings cost? (am I allowed to ask that?). How does it work?

I know 150 pounds is possible in 2 1/2 years, I think having a support system will make it easier So mind if I join? Lol.

 

[Goldeelox9]

Yeah Join us! I need to lose about 150 too.....Weight Watchers is $39.99 a month and gives all the online tools and the meetings. It is WONDERFUL! My DF and I are both doing it and have had great success in the 18 or so weeks we have been doing it. I wish I would have started 2 years out, then I would be skinny skinny by November!

I am so sorry about the stroke....I hope you are doing well now. So we welcome you!!!!!!!!!

 

[disneychickforever]

I'm doing much better now, but it was an eye opener. Thanks

My mom and I are going to go down to WW this week (hopefully tomorrow) to sign up, she wants to do it with me for moral support lol.

I've NEVER been skinny, so it'd be a nice change my older sister is now like a size 7 (growing up she was never skinny either) and so it makes me envious. My main thing is I don't want to hate my wedding pictures

 

[Goldeelox9]

That is wonderful, It is great having my fiancee doing it with me. We help each other out alot. Let us know how you do. We usually post on our weight in days. It's been slow here lately, but we love new people!

 

[disneychickforever]

I joined today! They were so nice, and I have so much confidence now! But I never realized how many points a Ham Sandwich has, lol.

I'm going to weigh in on Wednesday since I have school, and that is when they have night meetings.
