I have gained 10 pounds since our May 1st wedding.
How? How did this happen?
I'm sure this didn't help...
Pounds of left over wedding cake...
Or this...
19 or 20 frozen drinks over the course of ten days IMMEDIATELY after the wedding...
And as if this was good!
3 large, square meals with dessert every.damn.day for the last two months.
Oh, and of course...
Vats of wine and champagne and beer. For real, like 10 beers myself on the 4th of July.
Let's just say there hasn't been a lot of this...
This is supposed to symbolize exercise. Walking in rapids is exercise! I'm still sore and it was three days ago.
So I guess the above is how it happened.
Last summer, Topher and I dallied with the idea of running a mini-triathalon. After a year, he can now run a consecutive three miles, and I...well, my former-cross-country-ass hasn't had time to run or work out in a good three months. Now, Topher wants to run a 5k together in August.
Well, shite. Guess I need to get my lard ass of the couch, stop eating dessert and re-join Weight Watchers.
Here we go.
Anyone have any tips for losing the marriage ten?
Girlie, that first picture with the cake is the.best.picture.ever! Pretty much sums up how I feel about cake... which is probably why my lazy ass just started Jazzercise ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou can do it!
aw man all that looks delicious. training for a 5K definitely sounds like it could work!
ReplyDeleteYour cake left overs were probably worth it, right? :)
ReplyDeleteI agree about the Jazzercise... it's fun and you don't even realize how much cardio you're doing!
try Sparkpeople.com--it's free and has both diet and exercise tips. It's how I lost 20lbs before my wedding. Good luck!
ReplyDeletewell now you just described me after our wedding.. except it has now been eight months so I have gone over the ten pound mark.. ugh! Why oh why, is food sooo good (and beer, and wine..)??!! Good luck, please share all your secrets!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one who has seemed to pack on a few post wedding pounds! I gained seven pounds on our 11 day honeymoon and they seem to be sticking around for good! Have you had success with weight watchers before? I've never been, but seem to hear about it everywhere!
ReplyDeleteYou still look beautiful, but I'm confident that you can lose the post-wedding weight. You seem to be the type of person to get things done when you put your mind to it.
ReplyDeleteI have until October to lose 10 pounds, too....Boo! It's so not fun, all the delish food in your photos looks far mroe appealing than exercise.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to check out this livestrong! Topher talks about it all the time too! Thanks all!
ReplyDeleteI think if you all work towards the 5k that will really work! And, it's so sweet that you're doing it togther.
