I originally bought this dress last April in a size 14W...which was snug. In late June, I had lost about 20 pounds and the 14W was feeling loose, so I did a size exchange. I was a 12 at the time, but went for a 10, hoping I would fit into that by this August. A couple weeks ago I tried on my 10 and even that was loose! Thankfully, I was able to do a final size exchange for a size 8 and picked it up today. Here is the transformation:

    Thanks for the kind words everyone! If someone had told me a year ago I would fit into a size 8 I would have laughed. Anything is possible when you put your mind to it!

    Wonderful! Congrats on the weight loss - your plan is definately working for you. And of course Congrats on your upcoming wedding - all eyes will be on you. Be sure to have it video tapes (especially to see the look on peoples faces that haven't seen your transformation) Enjoy!!!
