I've always had a lot of insecurities about my body. I wanted to lose all of my extra weight before wedding dress shopping, but I only lost 15 pounds. My measurements are 40-30-40, and I wear a size 8. On paper, it sounds like I have this perfect hourglass figure. But I'm carrying around some extra weight, and hourglasses tend to be short-waisted, which makes us more prone to love handles. I have a bit of a tummy, and my love handles go out and then come back in before my hips go out. So I don't have this streamlined silhouette that you think of when you think of hourglass figures. Unfortunately, I also have this desire to show off my body with a fitted dress, but I'm afraid that I won't want to show it off once I see what I look like in the dresses. I have no idea what's going to look on me, but I'm scared to even try because I don't want to feel like I'm going to be a fat, unattractive bride who has to hide under a huge dress
