Rep Power: 1440 | | | I have a question guys...
Do you need to wait until you have lost all the weight you want before getting your dress fitted? I am only about half way there weight loss wise, but I want to get started on the alterations. any thoughts?
bridetobe....... push ups are great for the chest area..... or bench press!

I'd worry that you'd lose a lot of weight and the alterations would have to be redone, at extra cost. I'd wait until 6 or 4 weeks away from the wedding. But that's me. My dress isn't even going to come into the store until 4 weeks before my wedding! I'm nervous about it--but they said that everything will be fine and that is plenty of time for alterations.

Rep Power: 42804 | | | I am so excited! I have lost another ten pounds since I bought my dress. My dress is back at my parents house (over 12hrs away), so I haven't seen it since I bought it in February. I'm heading home in two weeks, so I will get to try it on again and see how it fits now.
Welcome Tropical sun!

Rep Power: 5977 | | | I'm getting married on 11th October this year. We decided to finally tie the knot on 29th February, so I've been dieting since then. So far I've lost 16lbs, but there's still some way to go.

Rep Power: 1223 | | | What a great thread!
I'm not getting married until 2010 (well, we're young!), but I already have my dress... it was a gift from a friend: she bought it on sale at a whim (and at $30, who wouldn't?), but it was vetoed by her mum. It doesn't fit me at all though... it's two sizes too big! So while we have to get it altered anyway, I'm looking to drop ten kilos so I look great in it!

Rep Power: 14873 | | | I guess I can be added to the list of brides to be! I started my weight loss before getting engaged. But this has just amped me up even more. We aren't getting hitched until March of 2009 so I have PLENTY of time and NO EXCUSES to not be at my goal weight by then. |

Rep Power: 1223 | | | Wow, liddieloo, you look great! Congratulations!
Madness, hello! I want to be at my goal weight at the same time as you: but for graduation, not for my wedding! The ring is a WAY bigger motivation though!

Rep Power: 0 | | | Im a newb, and Im glad I found this thread!
My wedding is October 4, 2008 and I am contractually obligated to lose 50 lbs! (Im under medical supervision--dont try this for fun on your own!) My journey is being documented by an unnamed cable network for a television special. (A classier way of saying Im on a reality show.)
How many dress sizes do you think 50 lbs is?
Darn wedding gowns for being so difficult to size! | | |
