My close friend is getting married in March. She asked me and our other good friend to be her bridesmaids. So there will be only 2 bridesmaids including me. I am very overweight and both the bride and the other bridesmaid are very skinny. I'm working out like crazy, lost about 10 pounds, but I still need to lose way more. The other bridesmaid and I need to go for dress shopping by end of next month and I am dreading it. I can't sleep at night. I am like a whale next to them...I don't know what to do...

Don't be insecure. You are who you are- embrace it! People are attracted to confidence.

Shop at somewhere like DB. They have dresses that come in both regular and plus sizes. Or if you find a style that you think will work for you, look for one on Etsy. You can usually order specific to your measurements.

Do yourself a favour and order the size you are right now. It will feel good to take it in later if you need, but it will be crushing if you planned to lose weight but didn't to fit the dress.

It's excellent to try to get healthy, but it's gotta be for you and whatever your shape is, you just need to strive to love yourself no matter what your shape!
