Well as some of you know, or may not know I am keeping track of what i eat and doing mild work out's...The problem is I wan't to work out like i used to. I used to work out 3 times a day 7 days a week and I loved it. this time around i'm trying not to lose too much weight because i have to fit in my dress for our marriage blessing in October. don't have the funds to get the dress altered if i did lose weight. It's making me stressed/depressed that i can't do my normal work outs. crazy huh? After the end of October I will be getting back to my normal work out routines but it seems so far away. :sad: this website has been motivating the hell out of me to get back in the game and i really can't just yet.. Well i just wanted to share. Thanks for reading. Feel free to add as a friend.

    Are there any ways you could earn some extra money to get it altered if you do lose the weight? Maybe sell some old furniture or electronics or something? Or pick up another job on the side?

    I have been working out like crazy and not losing any weight.
    You can workout as hard as you want. Just eat at your maintenance calories.
    I rather tape my dress to myself than quit working out.

    We're all out of things to sell. I lost my job a few months back because my HS Diploma is non credited technically means i've "never" went to HS so im going back to get my GED and going back to community college at the same time. So the way i earn cash is..Child Care. it's alright but could be a lot better if i had my actual job back. I've been saving but my husband and i are paying for our marriage blessing..

    "tape your dress to yourself than quit working out" that's hilarious. When i lose weight i lose weight I lose about 20lbs/month so Here we are in July, Marriage blessing is in October...i'd be losing about 60lbs by Oct. That sounds so awesome right now! but then i think about the alterations. $$$$ lol

    Sorry to hear about all that. It is so hard right now to find a job, especially if you're in school. Hopefully things start to work out soon.
