My wedding is only a few weeks away. All my work leading up to the big day will hopefully pay off. I will admit, it is such a struggle to keep up with the workouts. Lots of little tasks come up for the wedding that need to be done and often can not be pushed off to a later time. It makes it hard to fit in the time to work out. I’m really glad that I pre-scheduled time to workout with Devin, my trainer, ahead of time because that keeps me going to the gym. But I also realize that all the work I’ve been doing in the months leading up to the wedding could vanish if I don’t stay on top of things. No pressure, right?
Devin did another fitness assessment of me and in four months I have:
- lost 8 pounds
- lost about 2.19% body fat
- lost centimeters around my arms, waist, hips and legs
This is the reason I like tracking. I get to see the results. Can I tell I’ve lost weight and body fat? Yes. I have a pair of work pants that drag on the ground when I walk because I’ve lost so much around my waist and hips, but to see the actual numbers is very satisfying. I can see where I’ve made progress and specifically how much progress I’ve made.
Now in the few weeks left before the wedding I have to find a way to eat healthy and keep up with at least a few workouts a week. I gained 10 pounds in a month in the past, and if I’m not careful I could do it again and lose all the work I’ve put in for the big day.
Any other brides out there? How are you doing with being healthy before the big day?
