NSV - Bridesmaid dress

My best friend is getting married next week and I'm part of the wedding party. I ordered my dress with the rest of the girls back in December, before I decided to start my weight loss journey. I barely fit into a size 24 back then so I ordered it on the larger size just in case I gained weight.
Well, yesterday I was with my tailor getting fitted (I hadn't bothered to even try it on when it can in February because I wanted to see just how loose it would be when I absolutely had to get it altered). Turns out, I've lost several inches! I don't have the exact measurement yet, but when I get the dress back tomorrow for my second fitting, I'll let y'all know.
Woohoo! I'm so freaking excited! I just wish I had some photos to share with you guys. Maybe one of the girls has a group photo we took when we first tried it on. I'll ask. If so, I'm definitely doing a before and after!

Great job!!! Sort of same thing happened to me. In February my SIL asked me to be in her wedding in April. Well I asked the lady for a size 20 and she brought me an 18, I squeezed into it but it was SO tight. Well when I went to pick it up it fit much better and by the wedding I could have stood to have it altered but didnt have time. It felt great to accomplish that!0

GREAT JOB!!
I had a similar NSV...I was a bridesmaid last october and had got a 16 which was snug. I tried it on again for kicks about 2 weeks ago and I looked like i was swimming in it! Love that feeling!0
