OK so my fiance and I are getting married in Oct but im only 2 months out ive lost about 45 pounds and still going. Im in the gym daily and i do alot of weight training to tone. I want to start shopping for a dress but I dont no how small of a size i need to get because they will need atleast 2 months to order and do a final fitting. Has anyone else been though this? I dont want to wait to the last min to get a dress because ill be cutting out ALOT of what ill be able to get. Thanks for any advice in advance

Speaking through personal experience, your weight will start to stabilize around the sixth month post op. I personally would wait until July to start shopping. I think your dress will be really big on you if you start shopping now. Some of the clothes I wore a few months ago look like clown clothes on me now. A wedding dress is way to expensive and important to not have the correct fit. To be honest when I went dress shopping, I was prepared to custom order a dress, however after looking at their rack of dresses that were immediately available, I found the dress I wanted off the rack. It is really hard to predict what size you will be in October, and wedding dress sizing is so crazy. Personally speaking I lost a lot the first 5 months then I have slowed down to 4 lbs a month. Good luck to you...

Thank you! I wasnt ready to buy yet just wanted to get an idea what I wanted. I didnt no if i could find something this summer than a month before the wedding get it resized to where im at. I guess im just over thinking things lol thank you for your advice

Get a corset back. They can size up or down almost two sizes. I'm getting married in Oct. surgery on 2/25. Dress shopping 3/30. I have an idea of where I will be since I have lost weight before and have an idea of what size ill need.

The dresses i like they are pretty much all corset style and strapless. I kinda no where i will be but its still really hard to tell thank yall
