  • Everyone is different, but that seems like a pretty safe # to expect. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! You're going to make your seamstress crazy with your dress though

I agree the seamstress is gonna go nuts with you! :) Good luck and prayers to you.

No, no you won't. It's all a big scam. Run away! Run away!

I understand your concern. While there's no way to know for sure, chances are that you will lose enough to feel happy and proud of the way you look in eight months. I had surgery on Nov. 27 and wanted to lose 40 pounds before my vacation in late January. I lost 25, felt happier, fit into smaller clothes and hiked in Hawaii! Don't worry about it. It will all work out just fine for you!

Congratulations, I'm sure you'll do just fine 8mnths is a long time, you may need to pick a new dress by then....:)
