Wohooo I finally really had a good WOW moment..(not that all my little one's didn't count but this one made me cry). My best friend of 24 yrs (yes we have known each other since we were 9)anways,She is FINALLY ..lol..getting married in september.There is only two of us girls in her wedding party ,her sister who is maid of honor and me who is matron of honor.I have always been the "biggest"girl out of us 3.Well they have there dress's and I told her I would wait to the very last moment to order mine because I didn't want a ton of alterations done.Well me who is a big time bargain shopper and always trying to save money were I can(being broke all the time doesn't help either..lol), has been looking everywhere to get this dress at a big discount (ohh and by the way it's the same dress the girls wore for nats wedding just a diffrent color)sooo I found one on ebay and it was going pretty cheap big problem was it was a size 14.Umm not sure if this will work because last time I ran to davids I was in there 18 almost hitting there 16..SOOO I decided take another ride into richmond and try it on to see where I stood in it and if 4 months would be enough time to fit in it..WELL the 14 went right on..wohooooo..now I really want to push myself to get into a 12-10 by then seeing I have 4 months..but,I only have till mid july to order one..ANYWAYS..Im happy..even if im in that 14 for that day..Sorry I know this was long..I'm just happier then a pig in **** right now..lmao

Congrats! It's such a great feeling to have something fit that you weren't sure would!  Keep up the good work and you'll reach your mini-goal by the wedding. OH, and you're too cute about your "pig in ****" comment. Can we say that on here?!

That is wonderful and I am so happy for you!!!! It feels so good to come down the sizes!  You do start to slow down once you get passed a 14 I notice but you are going to look fabulous no matter what size you are by then. Your glow might outshine the bride's !!!  :-)  Jackie

Oh Yes I know..I am already slowing on my weigh loss now..but every bit helps.I didn't expect the 14 to fit for I am still wearing 16-18(18 which are a tiny bit to big)I mean I can get 14's on now but they have to be stretch and sometimes it makes the belly pouch stick out which I don't like..lol As far as outshining the bride..sometimes I feel guilt for that because she is battling her weight so I try not to say much to her about the size dropping..but on my wedding almost 15 yrs ago..I was the bride wearing a 22 and she was my maid of honor wearing a 10..lol

I understand - sometimes we have to just keep our joy to ourselves.... but I am very happy for you! I am now a 10/12 and life is so much easier - I still hope one day to be a 6/8 but not sure it is going to happen. But after being a 26/28 I can settle for this if I have to!! Jackie

Isn't it great.  Congratulations.  Definitely wait til the last  minute for that dress if you can, you could just slide right down into the 10's in four months.  :) Courtney

If your weight is slowing the inches are probably definitely dropping.  Maybe at that point if you are comfortably in one size you might consider getting the next size down.  :) Courtney
