:0( Saw my gown for the first time doesn't fit me

I still have time to slim up in time for my first fitting. I was about in inch where my buttons couldn't button!! I have been stressing due to major family related issues that in is effecting the wedding. These issues make me feel as if I don't care about things anymore. So, this is a wake up call for me to forget about everything and move my ass literally!! I ate healthy today and walked for a 1/2 hour. Its a start :0)

Hi Curly Sue,

I totally know what you mean about the dress fitting situation. I bought my dress while I was out of the country and it fit perfectly on the snug side. The hemline was only altered. Now i have a few pounds to lose so the dress is just comfortable. So I have to watch my weight majorly since the dress needs to fit me next MAY!!!

You will fit into your dress. Dont stress over it.
Just watch what you eat the next few weeks, and excersize a little.

Re: :0( Saw my gown for the first time doesn't fit me

Allow me to introduce myself. I am the poster child for NON-FITTING DRESSES. I nearly jumped out of a 3rd story window a few months ago because after waiting 4 months for my dress to arrive, it did not fit. It was 2 inches from buttoning in the back.

I am pleased to announce after trying it on again just this past Friday, IT FITS!!!!!!!!!!

YOU CAN DO IT! TRUST ME!

If I can do it, ANYBODY CAN!

Re: :0( Saw my gown for the first time doesn't fit me

you have time, just start exercising, DAILY, and begin to watch what you are eatting. You don't "DIET"simple watch your portions, and what you choose to eat. East to live, not live to eat. the combination of the 2 will help bring you to a health weight. Good luck and stay calm. Stress never helps the weight loss process.

Re: :0( Saw my gown for the first time doesn't fit me

I TOTALLY know how you feel.....my wedding is 2 and a half months away and guess what!? My dress fits but is still tight around my waist. I am going nuts dieting etc..exercising you name it. My motivation is picturing myself in the dress and how embarrassed I will be if it is still tight that day!!
good luck you can do it!

Re: :0( Saw my gown for the first time doesn't fit me

At the consultants suggestion, I ordered a size 16. I'm a 14 normally . . .and I measured a size 18. (Don't ask me how that happened!)

I told her that I intended on losing weight . . .and she said, "OH! A 16 will be fine!"

When the dress got here, it couldn't button!

Weight Watchers really works! TRUST ME!
