FInally found my wedding dress!!! And some problems.....

Hi everybody! I hope all is well. I put a pic of my wedding dress in my profile. I cannot believe it is a size 12. And they all said that wedding gowns run small! I waited so long since my wedding is LESS THAN 6 MOS AWAY!!! That is not my veil and tiara but they look ok too. ****If anyone would read my entry for Dec 11 and care to offer some comments on what they think I can do that would be a nice bonus!!!!*** Take care, all!!! Hugs, Stef

Your dress is amazing!!! It sort of reminds me of the one I just bought (see my profile!). You make a gorgeous bride! In reply to your Dec 11 post...YOu might want to try to up your protien. When I'm not getting enough in I tend to get sluggish and the weight loss slows down. Hope this helps! Becky 310/193.5/155

Stef!!! You look so pretty, wonderful dress!

Your dress is just lovely, Stef! What a gorgeous bride! I'm with Rebecca (the other gorgeous bride among us)... I'd up your protein. How much are you getting from protein shakes a day? Exercise usually will help with weight loss and should help increase your energy level too. BTW, May 20th has lots of meaning for me. That was my mother's birthday and ended up being my surgery date as well. Hugs, Kathy

The dress is gorgeous! As for being tired, as you sure your iron level is okay? I was tired all the time too and as soon as I started a daily iron supplement, it immediately got better. But I agree with other posters...protein and water and the next best suggestions...your body can't survive without good amounts of both. Dawn

Thanks everybody!!! I do need to up my water I forget to drink... funny how I NEVER forget to eat!!!! My iron level is normal and I do take all my vits. I do well with protein generally I get between 70-90 grams a day. Maybe I should try having protein shakes for snacks instead of what I usually eat.

Stef, The dress is beautiful and you are even more beautiful in it! I know you must be very eager for the big day to get here -- you look spectacular! ~Wanda

Stef, the dress is beautiful. You are going to be a gorgeous bride! As for the energy levels, I don't have any suggestions since you're blood work came back okay. Maybe your body geniunely needs some rest cuz you're working too hard and stressing about the wedding.

oooh girl! Look at that waist! You look beautiful! I just went shopping for a bridesmaid dress for my sister's wedding in May. I was so happy that I could actually try them on instead of holding them up in front of me. Congratulations!

just beautiful! Hugs Marla
