I made the mistake of getting on the scale last night

Okay, so I have known there is a problem.  I wore jeans to the OU game on Saturday and couldn't believe how horrible I looked.  I was kind of hoping everything was just "redistributing" (denial!) but I hopped on the scale last night and...wowzers.  I actually screamed.  I have gained 15 pounds in the past year. I am not sure how ANY of my clothes fit.

The worst part about it? NONE of the weight gain has been in my boobs. NONE.  My my butt and my thighs and a tiny bit in my stomach.  How is THAT fair?

Re: I made the mistake of getting on the scale last night

  • That sucks. FWIW, I think you look great and you probably had room to gain! I don't even want to talk about boobs... I used to be a very full C in high school and college... Two kids and weight loss post kids plus breast feeding left me with gaps in a B cup! 

    Haven't you been doing bootcamps? If you have been doing more strengthening exercises than you had been previously, it could count for some of that increase in weight. Remember muscle weighs more than fat and sure looks better! :)

  • I have been doing the bootcamps and working my a$$ off at that.....

    As far as boobs, let's not get started. I am a 32A.  It sucks. SUCKS. I need some Kardashian boobs to even out my Kardashian a$$.

    I feel ya. I look like a 12 year old boy in my sports bra. Indifferent

  • I have gained about 10 pounds in the past few months - enough that my clothes are not comfortable or I can't even zip them. I definitely overindulged over the holidays. I go back to work tomorrow and I just hope something fits.

  • Add me to the holiday overeaters club. I'm not quite counting calories yet, but trying to make the right choices as of new years day. I'm down 1.5-2lbs so far, so I'm guessing it shouldn't take too long to get back on track. 
  • I'm up 8 lbs. from this fall and my clothes are tight.  I'm in need of an intervention.

  • I think over break I managed to lose the two pounds I gained since September. Thank goodness.

    Unfortunately, I'm still well above where I want to be! I'm getting closer though--right now I'm around 9-10 pounds above my wedding weight. I feel like if I can get to there, then I'll be golden and can set another goal for myself.

  • Whew, I'm glad I'm not the only one who's gained some weight.  I didn't take any shorts on our trip to Florida last week because the ones I had no longer fit.  Misery loves company, but I hope we can all lose some pounds!
