My dress is in....

My dress is in....

Okay, I am feeling quite depressed...Normally brides are very excited to hear that their dress is in, but not me....it was ordered in Nov. and I was in between sizes. We ordered the smaller size instead of the bigger. to make a long story short...in the last 3 months I have been having a problem with my asthma, I threw my back out, and I have felt very unmotivated to exercise and I haven't been doing so. I am dreading trying on that dress for the fear it won't fit the way I want it to. I have been planning to get back on track with my exercising since I have off (i'm a teacher) I thought I would be able to lose a few before it came in, but it hit me by surprise. My wedding as you can see is not until 8/14 and I know I have time, but what to do if it doesn't fit right now? I am so MAD at myself and will feel so embarrassed if it doesn't fit right...ughhhhhhh!!!!
Thanks ladies for letting me vent

Ok first of of all don't stress out because that is not the answer...LOL I know how you feel we have all been through this. When I ordered my dress I did it a year before my wedding and it came in like 4 weeks after I ordered it and I was flipping out becasue I thought it would change color in a year but that worked out fine. About the weight thing, i was concerned too and I ended up ordering a bigger size but that backfired on me because I lost weight and then when I tried on my gown it was huge and sooooooooo much alteration had to be done. How did I loose the weight??? just by running around with wedding plans and the stress that comes with it. You can exercise but you don't have to go overboard just take your time. Since the weather is nice why don't you start off with going for walks. I love those. My husband and I are planning on getting bikes and going bike riding at a park that's close to our house. I am on WW right now and I have lost 4.4 pounds in one with a little exercise in between to help out. I do about 30 pushups a night sometimes 50 and at lunch time I go out for a walk. You can do little things like these. Trust me when it comes to exercise i am not the happiest camper but I do love walking...........give it a try...you can do it.

Thank you so much for responding. I know I have enough time to do something. It was the initial fitting...ugh!!! I know I have been telling people and I think it helps me detress. It's nice to hear that other people are going throught somewhat the same thing. It makes me feel better and I do plan on starting a walking routine especially since I have off until the 14th. Thanks a million!

When I went for my first fitting, the dress was a little tight, by the time I went for my final fitting it was NO PROBLEM! Just watch what you eat and as was said before, go for a walk at nite or something.
