For those brides-to-be looking for some inspiration, here’s an update from my last fitness post! To recap: I’ve been a regular gym-goer for the last 5 years, but for the wedding I really wanted to get into excellent shape! So, for the past 7 weeks I’ve been working out 5 days a week and generally watching what I eat. (**On Fridays, I’ve been doing the StairMaster, a timeless classic that really kicks my booty, literally! If you haven’t tried it in a while, jump back on, your thighs will thank you!)
The scale has only moved about 5 lbs, but the inches have moved INCREDIBLY! I’ve read a ton of magazines and they always say to forget about the scale and just take your measurements, and boy they weren’t kidding!
Bust: 38″ (5/25/08) to 36″ (7/8/08)
Waist: 30″ to 29″
Hips: 40.75″ to 39.5″
Thigh: 25″ to 22″
For all you non-math majors, that’s 3″ off my thighs!!! Awwww yeah.
(Me & Sister Coconut back in May 2008 - notice the bulge?)

For those keeping track of my dress fitting progress - Sister Coconut came over a couple of weeks before her wedding and I put on the dress. I’d been having nightmares about it not fitting. Well, it fits and zips ALL the way up! It’s still a little tiiight, but progress has been made!!! Wahoo!
So, give me an update on ya’ll! How ya doing with the exercise?
