Need some encouragement

Need some encouragement

My first fitting tomorrow, and I know that I am not going to fit into it. I was losing weight and gained most of it back (lots of family issues over the past year). So when it doesn't zip tomorrow I am going to be a mess. I need some cheering up and motivation that isn't negative!

*sending good vibes your way*

How much weight do you need to lose to fit into the dress? If it's more than 10 lbs, I would probably start with a cleanse and cut out salt almost entirely for the next month.

Hope everything works out!

I would like to lose A LOT but for the dress I only need like seven pounds. My wedding is Aug 4th, so I am cleansing, doing 'Turbo Fire' and doing very strict diet. I am going to be VERY cranky.

You can definitely do 7 lbs in a month. If that's all you need for the dress, I wouldn't try to lose more...you don't want to risk feeling weak on your wedding day. If you cleanse, stay on an extremely strict diet, and exercise, you should be able to lose it within about three weeks (depending on your weight, possibly sooner). After that you should just try to maintain the weight but get used to eating a bit more because you don't want to feel sick when you eat on your wedding day.

Re: Need some encouragement

you'll do it and look amazing?!?! i was trying to slim down a little for my wedding dress. the week of i just started to eat like a maniac. mostly because my dress was big at my final fitting and had to be taken in (again)! the weight just melted off and i was eating pizza, taco bell you name it! its the adrenaline. the day of my dress was big, even my bra, but we made it work.

now ... thats a whole other story lol
