hi everyone! i've been kinda stuck at 183 for a while now and it was starting to get to me. i don't feel like anything is changing and i'm stuck. so i decided it was time to dig out boxes of old clothes and try on everything. everything either fit perfectly or was too big! i don't own anything too small anymore! :-)

one of the items was my wedding dress from my wedding in 2004. back then i was VERY fit, very toned, a size 8/10, and a 36A/B. I think i weighed 175. Well today i weigh 183, i'm a size 10 and i'm a 36C. My dress fit perfectly! The only difference is that now i have cleavage in my dress AND i'm much more of an hour glass shape since my hips got bigger from having 2 babies. :-) I looked awesome!!! It brought back such happy feelings. :love:

i feel REALLY good. I feel so motivated now to lose even more weight. I'm going to clean house, pack (i'm going to visit family), and then do a couple workouts. :smile: yay me!!!:flowerforyou:

    Wow! That's amazing! I also got married in 2004 and there is no way I can fit into my dress and I probably never will. Which is too bad, because I love my dress, LOL!

    today was the second time i've ever tried it on. i tried it on a few years ago and couldn't even squeeze it closed. my dress is a red corsetted saloon style dress and i couldn't even get the end to meet up and TRY to close! i was really nervous trying it on today. i honestly didn't think i was going to be able to close the eyelets. :laugh:

    My husband and I have a bet going on. He doesn't think I'll fit the dress. I am positive I will. However, I have lost my dress. yes, lost it. If I can find it, I'll try it on!
