I don't fit in my dress and my wedding is 24 days away!!!
I had my baby almost 6 weeks ago. When I purchased my dress it was 6 months after i got engaged in dec 2011. I didn't plan on getting pregnant before the wedding but I did and I had hoped to lose the weight but its just not happening. And I missed all my alteration appointments from rk bridal cause I made them almost a year ago and no one from there called to remind me. And it's too late to schedule new ones. A friends aun't said that she would have to take apart the back of the dress to get it to fit. But I love the back. The biggest problem is it doesn't zip all the way up. My question is do u think spanx would work. My dress flairs out so its only the zipping of it that's a problem. And maybe the length but I haven't bought shoes yet. Any suggestions on what to buy? I'm so stressed out

Awww you could try spanx!! Would it alter the back completely if she did something to it?

Yea. She said she would have to take it apart. It goes half way up so I'm thinking that if I could squeeze into it with spanx and try and diet the next 3 weeks ill b ok. But it's hard with a little one at home trying to diet cause I just eat anything I can to just have something in my stomach. I know it's not an excuse but its def hard to eat right with a baby at home. He keeps me pretty busy.

You can def try the spanx but if its not enough and u don't want the dress taken apart then you have to push yourself to loose a couple of pounds in the next few weeks so it will fit. Sounds like you wouldn't have much to lose so its self doable. To keep from eating/snacking on the wrong things make sure to shop for healthy stuff so you aren't tempted.. Lots of fruits and veggies! Healthy cereals, oatmeal, watch your portions and drink lots of water! That's pretty much all I drink now (with the occasional cup of juice) and it has made a big difference. You can def do it! Good luck.

If you eat only protein and vegetables for the next few weeks i think you could get into your dress okay. But a better idea would be to find someone to do the alterations ASAP and fast. You'll probably have to pay for rush service but it can be done.

I would avoid carbs and sodium for the next 4 weeks. You will def drop weight quick that way. I dont know if they is enough time but maybe change the back of your dress from buttons / zipper to a corset that way you have some wiggle room.
Goodluck!! You can def do it :) Stay positive.

Maybe try to find someplace else to take the dress for alterations...they might be able to turn it into a corset back or something like that.

Also no carbonated drinks. Spanx will definitely do it. You will drop a size or two with spanx depending on which one you buy. There is also a book called the body reset diet that I heard works. You loose up to 15 pounds in 3 weeks. I think you drink smoothies and try some exercise even if its walking will help. A corset back is a plus.

Spanx are amazing! If I was you I would get a good pair and try that. Also I would only eat lean meats and veggies till the wedding. Low carb is a great way to loose weight/inches quickly. Hopefully it stays warm and you can start taking the baby on long walks. try to not stress you can make it happen in 24 days.

I agree, spanx can make a world of difference. Worst case scenario, you can always do a corset back. I'd be careful with extreme dieting if you're breastfeeding- you need sufficient nutrition in order for your little guy or girl to get all the nutrients they need!
