My girlfriend who is a model tells me - pale arms look the bigest in photos (uhhh ... she's rail thing but fair). Try tanning creams, or tanning.
Like I said she's rail thin, but does not like her arms - her trick make sure they are behing you or someone else in photos.
Other than that DON'T worry - your a bride! You will look beautiful!!!

Re: What are you most worried about on yourself....
wow ladies! I see I am definately not the only one. I went to david's again to get my crinoline and try on my dress again. That is a great tip to make sure they are behind someone else but what about side shots Also what is so bad is that because my dress is cut kind of low in the back, it actually looks better without a bra because the bra pokes me out with its restraints. geesh just when i thought my arms was the only problem....... I would have gotten sleeves but i am getting married outside in july, i would pass out!!!

For the girls with cold sores: I know exactly how you feel. I've been gettin them since grade school. But I have have a prescription for Zovirax that works like a charm. You can apply it as soon as you feel the burning sensation or anytime after it's risen. It sort of freezes it at that stage so it doesn't get any bigger. And it goes away in half the time. It really works! I always have a tube of it wherever I go. Just tell your doctor that you get cold sores and he'll give you a prescription. You don't have to wait until you have one before you go for a visit.

Thanks, great tips. I do have a Rx for Famvir (pills) and Denavir (topical). I used to use Zovirax, but my Dr. said Famvir is better. I used to atake Lysine too, but it didn't wor that great for me. Maybe I'll load up on Lysine as a precaution a few weeks before and take the pills for like 1 week and 1/2 before just in case. Hope it works!

I was worried about my skin but I had a bad break out when I went for my make-up trial and you coudn't see a thing. So that's not worrying me anymore. The thing that is and I know this might sound gross but whatever, my underarms My hair is so dark and I am afraid people will think I do not shave Sorry so open with this I have always been self conscious about this. And my scar on my back is worrying me too I had back surgery and I have a huge scar down my whole back. I am afraid everyone will see it.

I wouldn't worry about your scar, if you are wearing a veil or even a shawl that will help you feel a little better. i plan to have my shawl on as soon as i get inside.

If you are trying to loose fat on your arms doing light weights every night won't do anything!
You need to eat less, exercise more, and do weight trainning on your entire body, and not light either!
Sorry, I just get frustrated hearing this all the time.
Also, everyone should stop worrying and have an enjoyable day!!

Re: What are you most worried about on yourself....
I think I am most worried about my skin, but not on my face that is usually ok. I have Psoriasis on my hands elbows and knees. I'm only really worried about the hands they seem to stand out the most. I've had it my whole life but am still self concious. I did start tanning a couple of weeks ago and it is definately helping. But I do know that I really don't want any pics where my hands are very visible. Maybe the bouquet can cover them

I'm worried about skin too... it seems lately that I am just one big oil gland.... I hate it.
I have no medical benefits right now either, so I can't get to a dermatologist.

Go see your dermatologist -- they can give you preventative pills to take the week before the wedding that will prevent you from getting a cold sore. GO BEFORE you have the cold sore -- this is crucial.

Re: What are you most worried about on yourself....
I am bascially worried about looking too chubby, because, well, I am chubby! I'm watching what I eat and exercising, but I know that I will still be chubbs on my wedding day. It's ok with me though b/c that's me, I was never thin. However, wearing white, I hope I look like myself and not too big.
ETA: For the fair-skinned brides: can anyone recommend a good self-tanning lotion? Maybe this is on the NWR boards, I'll do a search.

Re: What are you most worried about on yourself....
This is gross but my biggest fear wedding day isn't being fat or breaking out or cold sores ... I'm worried that my stomache will be out of whack from nerves ... that I either won't be able to go to the bathroom or will not be able to get out of the bathroom. Lovely, but it's true. All other problems seem to me like the dress will either hide or the make-up lady will take care of.

Be prepared for the worst with OTC medication.

Re: What are you most worried about on yourself....
I'm worried about my arms too. I was lifting weight but they still look the same to me. I have a lace coat that goes over my dress but I wanted to take the coat off for the reception. Oh well!!!
