Re: October Brides

Oh god KL831!

I have to say I have lost at least one dress size from when I bought my dress from toning up and my dress just barely fit on a pre-fitting (just went in to look at it and I tried it on). That was good incentive for me a month before my first fitting to try and lose 10 pounds, I believe I am down 3 or so and I have 2 weeks to go. I have been doing TrimSpa and it really makes you less hungry but I feel the exercise is the thing that toned everything. Everytime I am sweating and lifting weights I say to myself 'wedding dress, wedding dress'. That thought and the fact that this is the biggest day of my life has kept me going!!

Re: October Brides

Well for the most part I am ok...but I definately have my moments where I am just a ball of nerves. I hate that there are just so many things that I had to wait to do because I live so far away. But, I'll be in LI Sept 5-9 to meet with the baker, the florist, finalize menus (rehersal and reception), meet with the priest and go for my hair and make-up trial. It's certenly going to be a busy weekend and hopefully a very productive one (well it better be...I won't be back in LI until Oct. 2 just 3 days before the big day....aahhhh, I'm having a moment )

Monday, I go for my first fitting. After that I have to get my shoes died, work on our programs, wrap and send the gifts for my BM's to NY, and order our favors. I'm sure there's more to be done but that's all the major stuff.
