Is This The Right Dress For Me ?



Recommended Posts

If its a park wedding, also have a look out for heeled wedges, which will save you sinking into the grass.

Wedges will give you the height and can shift the way you carry your weight when you walk to also help you look fantastic on the day.

And as an added bonus, the extra stability will help get over the fear of heels and often save your feet if your standing, walking or dancing alot on the day.

I agree with Missy Bear's advice/opinion on wedges. I still wear wedges every day. They force you to stand up straight and walk tall. They give you confidence AND make you look thinner but are much more comfortable than regular heels/stilettos.

Don't forget to post a new photo from the wedding!

If the dress makes you feel good then you should wear it.

Personally I think you would look nicer and probably be more comfortable in something that was more floaty and not so fitted/clingy.

I think you have my exact body type - our lower stomachs are an issue. I just think the shape, fabric, clinginess are not the most flattering. You should look for an a-line or princess cut gown, tea-length. You have a beautiful figure and I think it would be far more flattering. I know it's close - next time try eBay.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
