NSV - 20 lb down and my favorite dress fits!!

katharos3 · September 2011

I bought this dress about 12 years ago when my husband & I were dating. It has been my favorite ever since, but thanks to my 3 pregnancies it hasn't fit me much over the last 8 years. Well, today it fits! I still have more of a belly than I did pre-baby, but I'm just happy that it zips! The before pictures were taken in Dec. 2010 at 220 lbs and the dress wouldn't zip. The other pictures were taken today at 199 lbs.

you look so good!

Very cute dress, and if you really want to wear it now, I may suggest a spanx (I wear them with dresses just so I don't bounce around) and you'd be looking mighty fine!!!

Congrats on the loss... baby bellies are the last thing to go, unfortunately!!!

Thanks for sharing your success story and congratulations! I too have 3 kids and way too many dresses that haven't fit in years since gaining weight from all the pregnancies. I just started with fitpal so I hope it helps. I love to exercise but finding the time between work and kids is tough. I know I have to get better control of my eating habits too if I have any hope of finally having some success with my endless battle against the scale.

Thanks everyone! I'm going to get some spanx so I can wear it now, while the weather is still nice enough. I plan on the dress being way too big for me by next summer, so I want to enjoy it while I can.
