size 10 temple dress

Hello everyone, I havent posted here very often. I just found this forum not long ago, but I had to share my good news with you. We went to the temple Friday night and I decided that it was finally time to get a new dress.My old one was a 26/28 and it was way to big. I am a year out now and my weight loss has slowed down a great deal. I tried on several but the one that fit me the best was a size 10. I couldnt believe it. I would never have imagined that I would be in a size ten. My other good news is that I just booked my registration to Education week. I have always wanted to go to education week and it was just never possible for one reason or another. I am soooooo excited. My husband and I attended sympsium for seminary teachers about 7 years ago and it was such an awesome experience. I am figuring that education week will be similar. Thanks for letting me share my joy. Lynn

Oh Lynn, I am so proud of you!!!! This is the first picture I have seen of you since your surgery, you look totally different, and so great! I'll bet it felt so good to put on a size 10. Keep up the good work! Your friend Jenny

Jenny, I love your picture also. How fun to hear from you on here. I am sooo looking forward to my trip west this summer and I hope we can get together. It would be so fun to see you. Your friend Lynn

My grandma always goes to education week. I hope you have fun!!! Great news on the temple dress!! How exciting. Keep up the great work!! Love, Gala

Congratulations on your size 10 temple dress. I know that we're all equal in the temple, but wearing a size 10 opposed to a size 26/28 sure makes attending the temple sessions more comfortable with all the sitting and standing we do. I'm sure proud of you and proud that you can feel so much better about yourself. Melody

Good for you!!! I just recently decided I better get a new temple dress too, and couldn't believe it when I fit in a size 12!! I ended up getting a 14P instead, because with my batwings, the sleeves in the 12 were a little tight when moving my arms around and I was tripping over the hem, cause I'm short. I checked your profile and it's amazing ... you don't even look like the same person! You have done so well with your weight loss - you must be proud of this achievement! Laurie in So Calif.

Congratulations! I know I will never wear one that small and am thrilled for you! Sorry it took so long to get to you. Grins, Kaye
