Dress came in after 4 months of waiting!

Stephani, on October 9, 2011 at 8:48 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 17

I went to try it on today to make sure it was okay. I got measured hollow-to-hem so I was nervous that it would be too short. I was expecting the dress to fit looser than how it actually does, but I guess its not so bad. There was an applique missing on the front of the dress.. luckily the bridal consultant noticed it now. They have to send it back to get it fixed. Other than that, I will probably add cups into the bra and bring the straps up a little. Oh yea.. and I need to lose about 10 lbs! Any advice s appreciated.

    The dress is gorgeous and it looks great on you. Adding cups is always a good idea (makes you feel more secure). The straps look fine but if you think they need to come up then that's what you should do.

    I need to lose weight too - but I am just going to eat smaller portions more often (to keep the metabolism revved up) and since I dont exercise at all right now, will add 20 minutes of aerobics and toning 6 days a week. That has worked well for me in the past with usually 1 to 2 pound loss each week. Good luck!

    As for the weight thing... try zumba or a P90X... P90X isn't fun and it's very strict but it's sooo worth it if you can stick to it

    Your dress is stunning! Love it!

    I'm doing 20 minutes of cardio each day. I don't need to lose much, only about 5-10lbs at most, but I want to be nice and toned and in great shape for the day. So I'm starting the routine now. I found a very simple, easy cardio workout online, but it really kicks my @ss! I am sweating and breathing heavy after 20 minutes. And I feel sore! But I'm glad because it's working.

    I love the dress!! I had actually tried it on when I was dress shopping and it looked horrible on me but you look absolutely stunning in it. You will be a beautiful bride.

    Its beautiful! If you want to lose weight, try TurboFire. It's freaking intense, but you will drop the weight and tone up like crazy.

    Thanks girls!! I think I will try to do p90x. I have a few of those dvds.. but only the ones my sister didn't like! I have really slacked off but now that I tried on my dress I feel more motivated.

    Beautiful dress... it looks great on you... Honestly I don't see where you need to lose anything but if you feel the need I'm told the P90X is a great workout... I used Jilliam Michaels 30 day shred and it works great too..

    Thanks! Miss tattoo- my butt and thighs! It feels like the seams are going to burst! I didn't think about trying to sit down until after I left.. I'm not sure it will be possible. When I ordered the dress, I had only tried on the sample size. The lady helping me just clipped the back. I was able to move so freely, but it is much tighter around my ass in my size. I don't think I'll be able to do any perculating in my dress!
