Are you showing off your toned muscles? Or are you covering them up for the day?

Originally I wanted lace sleeves to hide my arms, but considering the wedding is in July I decided to just embrace the gun show Smiley xd

    Yesss I love it!!! You look AMAZING! I opted for an open back and a deep v-neck neckline, so I'll definitely be showing off all the gains!

    Yes I do xD I started training for a marathon that'll be 2 months before our wedding, so I should be in much better shape haha.

    Yes that'll do it! I'm planning to run one a few months after the wedding to help avoid post-marriage weight gain. It's a good strategy because then you have something to train for!

    Hi! I initially wanted a really fitted dress to show off my hard work but ultimately decided on a strapless A-line because I didn’t want everyone looking at my butt (I squat probably more than I should) However I’m all about that upper body gun show! Either way just go with how you feel most confident!

    I tried on some sheath dresses and I loved how I looked in them, but they felt restricting so I opted for an A-line dress instead. I'll save the curve-centric attire for the honeymoon lol.

    Yes haha that’s exactly my plan! I also didn’t like how restrictive it was in the sheaths

    I'm embracing the gun show. My ceremony dress has no sleeves, a low neckline and a low back, so it exposes my arms but I feel like the high neck halter neckline of my rehearsal dress really shows off my shoulders.

    I love it! Your shoulders look great and your arms look so nice and toned! I haven't gotten my rehearsal dinner dress yet (or bridal shower dress lol)

    I'm not doing a shower and our rehearsal is going to be really casual, but I wanted an excuse to wear more than one white dress in my life. I found this on Poshmark for like $10, so I figured, why not? I mentioned it to my mom and FMIL and both of them were like "oh do we need a nice dress for that dinner too?" and I was like "nope, I just bought a dress and need an excuse to wear it."

    Dang. Wish I could offer an opinion to this discussion! Lost 20lbs but I wasn't as diligent as I could have been. Still lightly squishy, lol

    That's still a huge accomplishment! Lol I work out 6x a week and am still a little squishy! I was just made that way and it would be unhealthy for me to try to be otherwise. You just gotta rock what you got!
