My mother gave me my prom dress when I went over to try on my wedding dress again (I have to every 5 lbs.. it's getting loose XD) and I was surprised by how it fit!

When I wore it at prom, it was too tight and uncomfortable. Not to mention my own insecurities at the time. Needless to say, I left prom early. The man in the second picture is the man that I am marrying in 31 days. :)

Ignore my funny expression. My roommate was making funny faces. xD

I should be a little bit sad that the bust area is way too big, but I'll live. xD

Edit; here's a better picture of a recent picture of how my face has changed:

    I also recently tried on my prom dress and it literally fell off. I didn't think I was that heavy in highschool but apparently I was!

    As for the exercises - I do a LOT of biking with my roommate. Other than that, running in place and Jillian Michaels (30DS and RI30)
