Can I join the '7 weeks and still can't get properly motivated' club too? I have kind of been making sure I go to the gym, do my zumba but the good eating has gone out the window. I always thought the wedding dress would be big incentive but somehow it hasn't happened...as I'm having it made I don't even have a dress there to slim into so maybe that's why I'm not trying as hard!0

Do you actually NEED to diet to fit into your dress? Not much is going to happen in 3 weeks, so I'd say if your dress fits ok, save yourself the stress & sack off the diet (obviously don't go pie-crazy, just take the pressure off)0 -
No I think that's the problem, my dress fits but I have been swimming and to the gym to try and tone my arms up a bit. With all the booze on my 2 hen do's I don't really have much chance of losing anything anyway!0

I am getting in 5 weeks (today) and I am so relaxed now! I haven't even got the motivation yet, because I know everything is sorted now and paid for, it's just a case of us getting married and enjoying it with our family and friends...
I am sure things will kick in soon where you will need to be motivated lolMarried the love of my life on 1st October 20110 -
