  • this is TECHNICALLY a during pic...

    ok - so i bought my wedding dress yesterday!!!!!
    and I absolutely LOVE it!

    One thing I hate, however...all the dresses I tried on fit AWESOMLY around my stomach and made my stomach look so flat!! BUT...my freakin' shoulders...most dresses wouldn't zip up because I'm built like a football player.

    Even 10 pounds away from goal and technically only 6 pounds "overweight"...i hate my shoulders. (40/42 chest size, btw)...

    so anyways though. I HAVE to share my wedding dress pic. because, if i do say so myself, I look fabulous!! but they do have to actually MAKE my dress...the back doesn't zip up all the way so while I fit into a regular size 14 around my stomach - they will have to make it as a "woman's 16"...because of my shoulders. course, i'm hoping by october when i pick it up, they'll have to take it in! heehe (btw, i'm in a size 12 in 'street clothes'...)

    YAY YOU!!!!

    You do look FABULOUS!!! Check out that collarbone and those long slender arms!!

    If you're hating the shoulders right now, just be a bit patient. Every pound toward goal (near the end of the journey) makes a bigger and bigger (or is it smaller?!) difference!! Every couple pounds now is easier to see for me and everyone else. In fact, as I get closer, I'm considering additional downsizing because I'm not terribly interested in the frankenfoods and I'm still losing. While the body is willing to lose, let it....that's my new motto!

    You look wonderful!!

        keriann -- you look so beautiful in your dress. I understand your shoulder problem....I was born with Green Bay Packer shoulders. In the 70's when everyone was wearing shouder pads I was ripping those suckers out and throwing them away - I didn't (and still don't) need them! At my thinnest (115 in my 20's) I still had my shoulders but they didn't look so bad.

        I can't wait to see your "official" pictures...congrats sweetie - you are beautiful!
