Bummed Out...

I'm kind of bummed out ladies :(.  My wedding photographer asked me if I wanted to participate in a fun photoshoot with my dress and I told her I'd get back to her because it's been going on 3 years since I got married/wore my dress.

I tried it on last night and that puppy was NOT zipping.  Like there's a good 3/4" or so gap at the top :(.  This made me feel really sad because I honestly thought with all my Jazzercising that I was feeling really fit...I mean for the first time in my life I can see a (faint) ab-line for crying out loud!  Apparently all of my cooking still overpowered any exercise I was doing :/.

I'm trying to make myself feel better and rationalize why it might not be fitting - gorging on salty, greasy foods at the Superbowl parties, holiday season still in recent memory, bloating from pre-menstrual week, and the fact that when I got fitted for the dress I was at an all time adult low weight (we even had to take in my dress during the last few weeks).  This dress fit like a glove to begin with and clearly has no room for wiggle let alone breathing :P.  Maybe it will fit in a couple weeks after I'm not all bloaty?!

Sigh.  This is just motivation to exercise even more and eat better, too.  Thanks for listening to me lament...

  • Girl, with your blog and FB posts about the yummies you make I think it's a miracle you're not 600 lbs. I know it's a bummer your dress doesn't fit but it sounds like it's *almost right there.* With a few weeks of healthy eating and Jazzercise I bet you'll get that puppy zipped up. Good luck!

    Agreed. Your food looks so darn good - seriously, I gain weight just looking at the delicious pictures Stick out tongue Good luck getting in shape. Maybe some strong Spanxx will help? I don't even want to try my wedding dress on - after having a kid, your body never quite comes back to it's old self!

  • Thanks for the encouragement, ladies.  I did already put on the undergarments that I originally wore with the dress.  Let's just hope it really is muscle and/or water retention that's preventing a good fit :).
