I've been really seriously dieting for the past 2-3 weeks. Pants that i had to PULL closed 3 weeks ago, fit me perfectly, if not loose. I go for my second fitting last night, and it got smaller around the waist!! All they took it was the chest. Thats the only alteration they had done. I was so excited that I was fitting into pants, but how can my dress not fit right? After Saturday (my b-party), It is SERIOUS South Beach and Workin out!

maybe you were a little bloated, that would make it tight in the middle???
and are you sure they didnt take it in at the waist a little???
you have time still before the wedding....drink lots of water, no alcohol(after bparty of course) diet and exercise and you will look great!!!!!

I know my wedding isn't nearly as close as yours but my dress didn't fit me when I went on Saturday!!!! I bought the sample size (which as you know fit me perfectly) and now I can barely zip up the dress without feeling faint! I measured and weighed myself and I didn't change AT ALL... The idiots in the bridal department told me that the sample dress probably stretched from so many people trying it on.... Don't you think they should have brought that to my attention when they ORDERED the dres??????![]()

You will be fine though! Just do the South Beach for a few weeks and all will be good! I think I am going to try weight watchers myself come Monday!

were you wearing a different corset or undergarment? If it's thicker than what you wore last time, that would definitely make the dress fit a bit tighter. If not, then I'm sure it got taken in somehow. Even just taking in the chest can affect the middle some. If your pants are getting bigger tho, then you've definitely lost inches. Don't get all discouraged. Just keep with the exercise (walking is the best) and try to steer clear of carbs for a while. Have 64 oz of water each day - don't go too much over that though, because that causes you to start retaining - and you'll get bloated. (can you tell I used to be a Weightloss Counselor? lol)![]()

No, I wore the same undergarments as last time. Thanks for making me feel better. I have been steering clear of carbs. I pretty much have been phase 1 of south beach during the week and phase 2 during the weekends. After Saturday, it will be phase 1 for the next 3 weeks!
