    I agree with everyone else, you aren't fat, you are a real woman like so many of us. Don't let what "society" says the "norm" is determine how you feel about yourself.

    You are beautiful in that dress, and remember FH loves you for who you are!

    I don't think you look fat in it at all. Is that one from David's? I've seen it before, and think it's lovely. Are your girls going to match the sash?

    You are so not fat and PS. I've been really jealous of your skin ever since the "no makeup" photo thread.

    The way your body is positioned in the first pic is not ideal. My B-shoot photog was telling me to never stand straight with arms at your side in any of my wedding photos as it makes the arms and stomach area appear bigger. Give your posture some curve, move a hip forward a bit, rest your hands in front of you, on your hip etc.

    You look fantastic in that dress.

    Recently I was looking at David Tutera's show, and a bride was trying on dresses, I asked DH if he liked my dress better (rhetorical question), he said, I loved your dress, but I loved who was in the dress more.

    @MSsL.~ Thanks for the skin compliment. Smiley smile I do try to make sure to wash and condition my face everynight. But there has been a few times that I have skipped on it.

    Thanks for the photo tip, I will make sure not to pose with my arms straight again! LOL

    @FunbrideT~I know my FH will be like yours. We have been friends for 13yrs and I have never been skinny!

    Thanks again girls, ya know sometimes my confidence just isn't there.

    I think you look great! Remember we women are our own worse critics! I couldn't wear a strapless because I felt naked and very top heavy! You need to feel comfortable in what you are wearing. Good Luck!
