So, many of you that one of my goals on my weight loss journey was to have my bridesmaid's dress for my sister's wedding this summer be the same size as my wedding dress. I had to order the dress yesterday two sizes bigger than my wedding dress. Granted, I am only one size bigger in my street clothes and the only reason they bumped up the bridesmaid's dress one more size was to accomodate the girls (and I'm okay with that ) but I'm still bummed. I really didn't work very hard at WW in November in December and the mojitos in Minnesota earlier this month didn't help either. I've gotten back on track this week and the wedding is 6 months away. So here's to hoping that they have to take the dress in enough that it measures the same as my wedding dress.

Amanda! You have SIX MONTHS! It's just one size...YOU CAN DO IT! I wouldn't say you didn't meet your goal yet. You know they are going to order a bigger size because they'll need the extra fabric "just in case", and sizes aren't a good indicator because all designers are different. Even the same size pants in the same brand can fit differently (I know, because I've tried them on!).

The past is over. You are back on track and will stay that way. Girl, they are going to have to take in that dress so much the boob darts will be in the BACK!

You have plenty of time to reach the goal ,and I know you will.

You will.
And I agreed with Kim about the size number. It shouldn't be that important because those are different sizes from brand to brand.
You still have 6 months. But I hope you feel good about yourself not matter the #.

What Kim said.

Hang in there!

I agree with Kim, 6 months is a long way off. You can do it, Amanda!

Lynni

Amanda, you are a success. Kim is right on!

Seriously...you have SIX MONTHS! You will do it..they are going to have to alter the crap out of that dress! You are doing such a great job--don't be so hard on yourself!!!

First, you can totally do this in 6 months, Amanda!

Second, you have done an AMAZING job on WW! I am totally inspired by your (and Alison's) weightloss stories! You are my HERO for how successful you've been! Don't let one size get you down. You can do it, because you've already done it!

MissPitchy

Oh, those sizes are crap. They always push you to buy the next size up so they can rip you off for alterations!

Way to go for getting so close. The dress ought to be hanging off of you in 6 months!
