    Lots of people gain weight after a wedding. Comes with happiness. Sometimes you just start matching your portions with your spouse and you just can't eat the bigger portions. I would say to just keep at it. Maybe add in a level of exercise that is sustainable like twice a week aerobics or something. Then, look at your food and see if you can up the quality of the food. Replace regular fats with good fats. Upgrade from anything white flour to whole grains or whole wheat. Add in more fruits and vegetables. Skip the super low fat dairy if it has major sugar in it. Do it gradually so it is a lifestyle change.
