OBG (Operation Bridal Gown!)

[Jayellekay]

do we get to see photos of your dress hun? fab news it can be altered!!!

I cant wait to see my dress - got to wait until August though :\

So have you picked one out - is August your first fitting?

Or are you going to start looking in August?

 

[*EB*]

I have ordered mine - its a Maggie dress and it comes in August - i guess thats my first fitting?!?!

 

[Jayellekay]

Exciting!
I've not picked mine yet. Though have put a date in the diary with my 2 key bridesmaids in October.
So now I just have to focus on the weightloss!

It'll be 13months before my wedding and I'm determined to be at goal by then!

So - do you have much more to lose? Did you order a "smaller" dress?

 

[*EB*]

Yeah I need to lose as much as possible! The dress is a US 12.... But I think all will be okay cos I am losing weight steadily now and toning up too! Fingers crossed anyways!!!

Hi i just bought my wedding dress Friday have it in the size i an now but can be altered by 2sizes does anyone know how much weight a dress size is xx

 

[scotminx]

about a stone is usually a dress size for me, although i think 1/2 a stone can do it for some... good luck

I think it depends on what size you are.

I started at a 20 and I'm almost a 16 (but not comfortably). So for me the first size was about 2.5-3st and the next about 1.5-2. Expect as I get smaller, I'll need to lose less weight per size.

Im a 20 now got 51 weeks till wedding so at 1lb per week is 3.5stone i think so hoping that's enough xx

[biggysmalls]

Hi, Ninnins! We're going off to Las Vegas and then having a party when we get home. It's next year so I still have time to get into shape (I think!) By the way, you have done soooooo well. I'm impressed!

i would love to get married abroad - but my mum cant travel and i am just hoping and praying the weather in October is peachy!!! haha! xxx

 

[HellieCopter]

Helloooo! Can I join team OBG? I've just started my dress hunt and I've still got a stone of baby weight to lose yet...and then wouldn't mind an extra half stone off after that. A girl has got to look her best on her wedding day, right?!
Big day is in July next year.
