So my mom already bought my wedding dress. We ordered it a little snug ON PURPOSE to help keep me motivated!

Sean - if you're reading this STOP NOW!

Message me if you'd like for me to send you a copy of the gown. We're getting REALLY excited about some of the AWESOME plans we have for our Disneyworld Wedding next fall!

Our original date was in November of 2011, however we had to cancel that (my guy is in the Navy - 'nough said, right?).

So we pushed it back to fall of 2012. PLENTY of time to lose some weight and all that jazz, right?

Well, here are the measurements for the dress as it stands now:
Chest: 43
Waist: 35
Hip: 46

My Measurements a month ago:
Chest: 42
Waist: 40
Hips: 50.5

My CURRENT measurements:
Chest: 42.5
Waist: 36
Hips: 48

I'm just 3 inches away from being the IDEAL SIZE to fit this dress! That's pretty exciting. Now, I have a YEAR, so I'll be doing just fine by that time. The waist up has a corset style back, which makes those inches pretty much unnecessary, but the zipper over the hips is a necessity, and I'm now SURE it'll fit when the time comes. Might even need to be taken in just a few inches. We'll see, but so far so good!

Send me a message and I'd be happy to send you photos from the fitting! I'm not going to post them publically as by guy might pop in and see 'em ;)

    I think I just loose belly fat first. I've been doing the elliptical every day (level 7, random setting, keeping it at 5mph or above, 18 minutes forward, 2 minute cool down backwards). I interchanged that with walking or running at least 30 minutes/day too. Just sneaking in a work out wherever I can fit it in.

    I figure I can save on alterations too by having them remove part of the zipper (IF they need to take in the Hips afterall) by having them just extend the corset part down the back further. I really love that V shape that the ties get to when the bride is, well, IN SHAPE!
