So yesterday on my 31st birthday I decided to try on my wedding dress to see if I can use the top for the Ren Fair I'm going to in a few weeks. And to my surprise I was SWIMMING in my top! I was married 12/05/2009, about 30-40 lbs heavier than I am now. I'm currently at about 210-215 lbs with a goal of somewhere around 160-175 lbs. Still have about 50 lbs to go, but this is helping re-motivate me after A LOT of birthday cake.

    You look great. Congratulations on your weight loss. Will you be able to have someone bring in the dress for the festival?

    I'm going to give the top to a friend. I can still make the skirt work- and I don't know if it could be taken in, since it has the real boning stuff. Thank you!!! :)

    No, I'm going to give the top to a friend, but I have something else to wear. Thank you for your support! :D

    Your dress is obviously too big now but good lord: Look at your face!

    In a good way!

    Your face is SO much thinner. Congrats on your weight loss achievements all around.

    p.s. love the non-traditional wedding dress.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You TOTALLY just made my day. My older sisters have cheek bones you could cut glass with- I wonder if mine will keep getting more pronouced?

    Awesome!!! I had a lot of beautiful corsets that I wore at my heaviest weight that I had to give away. I don't miss the weight, but I do miss those corsets...

    That is awesome! I love your original outfit, BUT I guess having to get a new one for this reason is even better! :)
