I've gained a little weight, I contribute it to a desk job and baking a lot of chocolate yumminess. Either way, I'm not concerned about it yet and won't let my weight get out of control. I didn't even realize I gained weight until a recent doctor appointment because DH and I don't have a scale.
from the time i got married to the time i found out i was pregnant (about 6 months later) i had gained 7 pounds. that's pretty bad....
my goal is to lose all of my baby weight and THEN 10 pounds after the baby comes.
I actually lost a few pounds, unintentionally, after the wedding. DH and I lead quite an active lifestyle and get out and about a fair bit on weekends. We also tend to eat a relatively healthy diet, although we don't consciously watch what we eat. Keeping fit and healthy is important to us so I don't see either one of us letting our weight slide.
Of course now that I'm 18 weeks pregnant, the scale has been creeping up and it freaks me out a bit, although I keep reminding myself it is for a very good reason! I'm definitely committed to losing the baby weight once this little bub arrives!
I refuse to get on the scale because I'm positive I've gained since the wedding. I was super diligent about working out and eating really clean before the wedding...and I'm still active and eat healthy, but I feel sorta lumpy...
I was my skinniest at my wedding (117 lbs), which was nice, but actually a little too skinny for me (@ 5'7"). My body also really didn't want to be there, but wedding stress got to me towards the end. We went on a 10 day cruise for our honeymoon, and I quickly gained about 8 lbs. I stayed here for the first year, but after living with my husband, I started eating more since he ate more. I think I weighed in at 130 before getting off of birth control to TTC (3 years married). I like being around 125, but we'll see after this pregnancy is over.
I think I put on 8-10 lbs. I didn't own a scale until recently so I don't know for sure. I indulged during the honeymoon and we both got pretty lazy about the gym. I recently got back on track and I've lost 4 lbs.
well I did gain weight (but I was gaining weight before the wedding because of new medication) but we have both lost 20+ each since November (a month after the wedding) thanks to a personal trainer!
since i just got married a couple of months ago it's kind of hard to say. I gained weight on the honeymoon and this month I started WW and lost 2 lbs. So I guess you can say I lost weight. BUT if I didn't start WW I know that I probably would have stayed or gained.
But when I moved in with DH a couple of years ago, THAT is where I gained the weight. I was making hearty dinners and wasn't working out
I have gained 5-7lbs, although that is partially because of Christmas and our HM bad eating. DH has gained too.
I am back to cooking healthy food and exercise, so hopefully it comes off (and then some!) quickly!
I'm feeling self conscious about this, too. I'm not sure what the deal is. Leading up to the wedding, I'll admit I put a little more effort into losing weight (though nothing more than 10ish pounds). Now, I feel like a chunky monkey, but I'm not sure about actual gains. Part of me thinks it's because it's winter, and we hibernate.
I've also been baking a lot...
DH and i have made an intentional effort to lose weight and get fit after our wedding. we've actually lost weight :)
I gained weight.
I contribute it to both having a desk job and battling some anxiety and depression associated with said desk job.
I stayed the same! My weight fluctuates naturally and right before the wedding I dropped a lot of water weight which I did gain back, but my weight today is the same it was the year of my wedding.
In the month before my wedding I dropped 10 pounds just due to stress and within 6 months after our wedding I was up 20 pounds. So I gained 20 from my wedding day and 10 from my normal weight. I keep saying I am going to lose it but have been married for 1.5yrs and still haven't done much about it. I found myself eating a lot more junk and or ordering out with DH. Also in the beginning we were having a glass of wine or two with dinner so that added up quickly.
I gained about 10 pounds. I've lost about 8 so far. It was easy for me to gain weight from our honeymoon and newly wedded bliss + not having to deal with the stress of fitting into my tight non-corset back dress.
Well, I gained weight but that's because I was ridiculously underweight in an eating disorder kind of way when we got married.
I put on a lot of weight! But my habits didn't change at all. I had always eaten meals at home, and I had the same job before/after marriage. I had lost weight for the wedding, about 15-ish lbs. And within a year of marriage I gained nearly 20 lbs. I was at the heaviest I had ever been. I started working out virgorously until I got pregnant eight months ago. I'll be happy when I can seriously work out again.
I've been about the same weight since highschool +/- 5 lbs and have been exactly the same for the last 4 years since meeting my husband.
I gained about 30lbs in 2 years while we were living together, it took DH having a health scare to get us into the gym and eating better, I've lost all that weight.
I was the skinniest I'd been in 3 years on my wedding day but after the wedding, oh my! Both DH and gained about 8lbs in the 2 weeks following the wedding, it was bad, we basically just ate crap and never went to the gym.
I'm happy to say though that I'm back down to wedding day weight and still dropping! DH and I have a goal weight and if we hit it by July then we are going to do a re-shoot of our wedding pictures!
I gained a few pounds, but we joined a gym this month, and I'm down 6lbs now, 2 more and I'm at pre-wedding weight and hopefully I'll keep going down from there!
We both gained weight! I'm pregnant now, so I'm not exactly trying to lose any, but I am itching to whip myself back into pre baby shape very soon!
I'm about the same weight, but in the best shape of my life. My husband's the one that gained weight (mostly before the wedding, however). We started going to the gym together about six months ago, and I officially went from skinny fat to slim and fit!
Just remember that exercise alone won't make you lose weight, a bad diet HEAVILY outweighs any calories you burn exercising. A lot of people simply eat more in stable, comfortable relationships. Add stress and/or a lack of sleep to that, and it's easy to get in the habit of overeating.
I lost about 10 pounds over the course of the year before the wedding without actually doing anything to try to. I think it was stress. Now that we're married and I don't have a huge life-altering event coming up, I've relaxed a bit and put that weight back on. I'm starting to exercise and eat healthier, because I really liked being 10 pounds lighter!
I gained about 15 pounds after getting married. I've lost about 10 now by working out more often.
Well we just got married in early December and I think I have gained a little bit of weight. If not weight, then I am just not as tight anymore. I haven't been able to hit the gym all month. I'm not too concernced about it though, in a week I'll be back into the groove of things, and in tip top shape for summer.
I am up ~5 lbs since our wedding. My wedding weight was the skinniest I had been for years since I lost 20 lbs when DH and I were dating and engaged. I am working on getting in even better shape and dropping maybe 10 lbs more. With a 5'2" frame, 10 lbs makes quite a difference!
I had lost about 15-20 pounds in the 8 months or so before our wedding, by starting to work out regularly and cut out certain food items (like I didn't drink alcohol for the few months before) and in the past year and a half I've slowly gained it back. I attribute it to grad school (I started a phd program the month after our wedding) and not having time to work out regularly. I'm trying to keep a regular work out schedule this semester though, and also joined weight watchers to keep a better consciousness about my diet. I thought I ate pretty healthily before, because I eat a lot of veggies, and as a vegetarian i'm always making sure I get a balanced meal with enough protein, but I've realized that my portion sizes were way bigger than they need to be! I'm hoping to get back down to my wedding weight, or even a little below, this year!
My weight had pretty much stayed the same after marriage as it was before marriage. I have recently lost 7 lbs.
I sure have. Yikes. I guess because I am loved unconditionally, I don't care to the extent I used to. I am not technically overweight by medical standards or BMI, but I have gained since the wedding. It is tough living with DH who loves fried chicken and Chubby Hubby ice cream, you know? :/
I asked this question before I was married... and people said it wasn't true. haha now that I am married I see for myself... You Gain Weight. I am going to have to go on a diet soon--- I started walking yesterday.... This cannot get out of hand... my shape is wayyyy to beautiful to lose now! :)
I have gained around 5 lbs since my wedding 3 months ago. However, both my Husband and I recently joined a gym so we're hoping to lose weight soon.
I gained 3-4 before the wedding and then another 3 after the wedding. I'm still pretty small (116) but I want to get back down to a weight where I felt my best to go to vegas later this year!
I have gained weight, my husband has a high metabolism and eats desert every night. I use to never eat desert except on a special occassion, now every night i have something. I blame him haha not really. But i need to get my butt to the gym
I've gained a little bit of weight due to giving into my husband's eating habits, as well as starting a desk job that doesn't give me the chance to move around as much during the day. It took me a little while to realize that I was gaining the weight, so I'm starting to make changes to reverse the trend!
Oh I definitely gained weight.
I went from working out 3 times a week and having a very set schedule of eating to my honeymoon where everything was crazy and then home where all my schedules were suddenly messed up.
I'm hoping to lose it in the next few months now that things have settled down.
I quickly gained all the weight I lost for the wedding back (15lbs) then lost it again and now its back :( However, I am back on the wagon again and doing pretty well but decided not to weigh myself anymore. I will allow myself to weigh every month but not more frequent. I decided weighing myself was not good for me....
But, I meet DH and almost my largest I have ever been. So, he feel in love with me at my worst :D I had started getting healthy just a few months before meeting him...

I've gained about 5 or 7 pounds since I got married. Before getting married I had anemia (the kind you get for lack of vitamins and iron). I was really underweight and had a hard time getting back to a healthy weight. Now I feel like I'm just gaining and gaining. I'm pretty active, I work and go to school. Bc of my schedule I have not been to the gym as regularly as I did before but I'm not just sitting around. We cook 5 to 6 times a week. A lot of people say that couples gain weight in the first year of marriage. Is that true?
