What 40lbs+ looks like in a wedding dress (Pics)

I got married in July last year, I picked the first dress that fit me, and I felt hid the lumps and bumps well. The dress I chose was SKIN TIGHT, after alterations, it was hard to get into and almost impossible to get out of, because my hips were so large I had trouble putting on, and had to do the "Dive through" technique getting into it (not easy with hair and makeup done ha!) my wedding was 5 months before I started my weight loss journey, a few weeks ago I thought it would be cool to try on my wedding dress again and see the difference that 40lbs+ lost would make, I didn't really think there would be much difference, but the pics are surprising

Wedding day: Not too sure of my weight as I didn't start tracking until December, but about 260



Now:




I wish you could see just how much difference there is, I was able to step into the dress this time, and if I didn't hold it up it would fall down, it needs to be taken in at LEAST 4 inches everywhere.

Would love to see if anyone else has then and now pics of them in their dresses if you've lost a lot of weight after the wedding
