My dress was so big... (W/PICS)

For my first fitting last night.

No big deal since it is being custom made. Mom and the dressmaker both had to hold it in so my dad could get some photos, which I'll post as soon as dad figures out shutterfly

It was SOOO nice how the dressmaker kept going on and on about how much weight I've lost! She wants to wait until 3 weeks before my wedding to do anything else or she's afraid she'll have to re-make it 3 times.

I have been on a low-carb diet and exercising a lot. Weights and cardio, plus FH and I live together and he is low-carb as well, so it is easier with his support!!!

I hove lost 38 lbs to date, and hope to drop another 10-15 in the next month and a half.

I'm sooo excited since my shower this weekend, dress fitting, buying my tiara and shoes!!!

Thank you!!

The dress maker just going on and on about my double chin being gone. Well I've lost 38 lbs since I commissioned the dress... At least 15 since the last measurements....

But seeing these photos, the ARM workout start back tonight!!!
