I feel like a fat ass
Only 5 days left until my wedding and all i can think about is how bloated i feel. My stomach looks bigger than normal and i feel my chin doubling up. Any thoughts ladies? It’s not that time of the month or even close to it. I haven’t been eating more or less than normal. I haven’t stepped on the treadmill for over a week now so that could be the culprit. Though I did lift some weights yesterday just so I wouldn’t feel 100% guilty.
Mr. Apple suggested not eating the rest of the week. I think he was half kidding half truthful. argh! -) Besides I love food too much to even think about doing something that outrageous. Maybe I should hit up the gym tomorrow and burn some calories but damn….i’m only one week away from my wedding date. It’s not like I’m going to look any skinnier by burning a couple hundred calories?! I am one lazy mofo.
I hope I can fit into my dress. It’s hanging up in the guest room closet and I’m scared ladies…real scared to even put one foot in.
Maybe I should drink cabbage soup for 5 days or eat some rabbit food like steamed broccoli with oil and vinegar, yumm….my tummy is growling already.
Any suggestions on getting rid of this feeling?

i think ur just nervous, i bet you’ll look beautiful in your dress =)
nah, I think your just nervous and thinking way too much ! You’ll look AMAZING in your dress.
I agree with the above. If you really really feel the need, cut out the sugar and starches…and reduce salt. Good luck!
you might be nervous.. drink more water and less of the salt and sugar as stated above.
go to the spa and RELAX – get a body wrap! that helps get rid of your water weight, so you might feel a bit better! orrrr go to BLISS and get a massage then take a really long hot shower in their AMAZINGGG waterfall /steam shower – it’ll cure anything!
I feel that way sometimes, and I really start freaking out I won’t fit into my dress. I’d take the other girls advice and drink lots of water. Also go do a semi hard workout. I did that yesterday and in my mind I already feel slimmer…Good luck!
Yea, I’m sure it’s just the butterflies. Although you most likely don’t need it – I’ve heard that eating Trader Joe’s fiber cereal the week before the wedding helps shed some pounds, but I haven’t tried. Relax! And congratulations!
I think it is all in your head. You will fit in your dress and be a beautiful bride! But saying that I would just avoid salty stuff to keep the bloat away…just in case=)
