Women, being our natural selves, run screaming after hearing the word overweight. We vow to stop eating unhealthy foods, exercise every day, lose weight immediately and not let anyone see our naked bodies until we do. I like to refer to this as the "behind the towel" trick. But, who can really retain full function of their arms and keep the towel in place?
For a woman (excluding the Victoria Secret-model-type) it is natural to fluctuate in weight. However, with the already mounting stresses of being a bride-to-be, weight gain has topped my list. Referring back to "The List," I've never given a second glance at other people's wedding pictures, pre-engagment. Now I find myself enamored with them. Worst of all, I am becoming increasingly judgmental. *If I had cause to be a Bridezilla, this would be the area. * I internally and sometimes out loud (to my fiance) comment on who looks fat, who's dress is too frilly and what poses are utterly rediculous.
While the favor will be returned and others will ultimately comment on my pictures too, my 2012 and wedding goal is to insure my body weight is not included on the "Can you believe...?" comment list.
In order to reach my goal, I have enrolled, for my second time, in weight watchers and reserved my spot in a six-week boot camp. I will not bore any readers with a daily log. However, I will record trial and tribulations, helpful hints and other worth reading documentations.
