Workout/Diet Support group!

ashleychow · July 2010

Hi Brides to be!

Carsonc27's blog completely inspired me!!! I'm getting married in 2 months and would love to get in shape and lose some weight before the big day! Who's with me??! I'm HIGHLY unmotivated and a HUGE foodie, so I thought a bunch of us can join together and be each other's support system! We can exchange emails, update each other on progress and exercise and diet regime's and support one another as we grab that cheetoh or mars bar! We don't have to do necessarily do the same program or eat the same things. It's just nice to know that there's a group of girls going through the same thing and encouraging you every step of the way! Just a thought! Maybe some of you might think it's a great idea!

Hope to hear from you!

Hey Kelley! My email address is ashleyandjay2010@hotmail.com. I'm so excited to get started!

Count me in. I'm at TMinus 60 days and counting! My email is mono3303@yahoo.com.

I'm working with a personal trainer -- I'll give any tips she gives me but so far she said to lose ten pounds by the wedding I should do weights 2-3x a week and cardio for at least a half an hour 5x a week. And keep my calorie count to about 1500. I'm 5' 4"

She seems to LOVE to have me do lunges around the gym. I hate lunges, sits ups, etc. I think that's helped me most is realizing that ANY activity helps. So I go to the gym and only work out for 30 min. That's better than nothing!!

Hey ladies!

I could totally use some motivation and it really does help when you have someone to talk to. I used to have a support buddy through sparkpeople.com but then we lost touch and I swear I stopped losing weight!

I have just under 11 months to go and I REALLY want to lose 50 more lbs. I joined Weight Watchers 6 weeks ago. It's okay at the moment.. but I know I can do better. I need to get my butt in gear!!
My email is amandamichelle419@yahoo.com

Talk to you soon! =]

ashleychow · July 2010

This is great ladies!!!! I think we'll definitely be able to keep motivated!!!! I'll see who else would like to join us through the weekend and I'll send everyone an email on Monday morning to get started!!!

critchie103 · July 2010

Count me in! I'm not getting married for another 9 months but I'm not taking engagement pics until I lose some weight (and I want to take those in September)! My email address in caroline.ritchie103@gmail.com.

This past week I've been trying to drink more water. I've been drinking just over a gallon a day! I've also been doing an hour of cardio 5x a week and some weight lifting/sit-ups 3x a week. Eating about 1000-1500 calories per day. I've only been on this kick for a week and it doesn't look like I've lost a single pound but I atleast feel great! Hoping the pounds start coming off soon! My goal is to lose 18 pounds by the engagement pics and another 10 pounds before the wedding....and then to keep it off FOR GOOD!

Meghangh · July 2010

spainy17 · July 2010

I am totally in!!!! I have 3 months to my wedding and just got my engagement pictures back and I don't like them because I still have some weight to lose! I love to exercise but have a hard time fitting it in, and am a huge eater that works nights so diet is a huge deal for me! It is awesome that we have some support! I think we should do weekly weigh ins!

sunflower1986 · July 2010

Me too, me too!! I have 3 and 1/2 months and need get on track. I love food, like exercise but like hanging around just as much. I was thinking about joining WW because diet is the hardest part for me (choosing healthy over tasty). I'm so happy this post was made
