So...I purchased a bra from Yvette's and tried it on with my dress today and my dress would not zip!!! Took off the bra and it still didn't zip
The irony is that I'd been sick for a while and lost a lot of weight...I was more worried that i'd need to have it taken in. Now after gaining some weight back, it doesn't fit. It's so weird because I picked it up about 2 months ago and it fit great. I didn't think the few pounds would matter...but it definitely went to the wrong places.
I guess now I'll be cutting down on chocolate cake and Pepsi because I'll be damned if this dress doesn't zip come October!

I was really looking forward to seeing how it fit with the new underwear. It's a bra with boning to hold you in nice and snug...I guess in my case it wasn't snug enough.
I think I'm more upset that I have to show self control in the kitchen and start some type of exercise routine...

You still have time! No worries... but yeah cutting out the soda doesn't hurt. I only drink it when we BBQ or eat Thai food and I noticed a huge difference!!!

diet soda & water. lose the bread, rice & potatoes for a few weeks and you'll drop 10-15 in no time! the dress will fit beautifully, don't worry!

You are all right. Will power is key. Someone just needs to tell that sneaky little devil named chocolate cake to stop whispering sweet nothings in my ear

my dress didnt fit when i first tried it on. The bra does take up a lot of space. They ended up taking my dress out a little.

I know it's nothing compared to soda or diet soda but if you want the bubbly taste, flavored seltzer is always good. Raspberry is tasty :)

give up the chocolate cake!
My trick is if I feel like having something sugary, I just think of saving my self for my wedding cake and it helps!

This happened to me- i am about 8 lbs heavier than when I ordered my dress. But my alterations person told me that there will be no problems letting it out a little. You will be fine- But I understand your fustration.

I've tried that...seltzer with lemon and it satisfies the craving for something fizzy! It's the chocolate cake thing that's the killer. I'm hoping I won't have to get the dress taken out. Today is the first day I'm going to try to work out

Oh girl, I am worried about the same thing! I have not gone for my fitting yet, though!
Maybe we need to keep each other motivated!

wear flat shoes to work, and take the stairs instead of the elevator. i know finding tme to workout sometimes is hard...so every little bit of motion during the day helps
stairs, walking, more water, and more fiber in your diet!! should help
