in Success Stories
This is a success story and NSV all in one! Over the course of the past few months I have lost 25 pounds, many many inches and several dress sizes. I finally realized how much my body has changed when I picked up the bridesmaid dress I ordered a few months back (in a size 20) and it was falling off my body!! I took it to a seamstress and she was just floored. She told me she took it into about a size 10 :)

So when she told me I was about a size 10, I had to try on all the dresses that had been hiding in the back of my closet for the past 2-3 years :) I now not only am not digging through my closet, feeling discouraged because I have nothing to wear for the rehearsal dinner, I now get to choose!!! Let me know which one you like best. Although the middle one is my favorite, this one is pretty snug in the chest, and the necklace tends to bleed, which doesn't look great the next day.

    I tried to fix the sizing, hopefully it worked! I am 5'3", and today was my 75th day on MFP! I have had my good days, great days, and not so great days.

    Congratulations on your loss! You look amazing!! If it were me, I would choose dress #3 because it is the most flattering style of all, and very classy/chic looking, in my opinion. I've never been a fan of dresses that are straight across the chest above the boobs with no shoulders. I haven't seen one yet that has a great cut, although I do love the fabric of the little black and white number.

    I like all of them. #2 and #3 especially. By the way, how tall are you? nevermind, I just saw your post saying that you're 5'3.
