I wore a dress... in public!

I usually never bothered with dresses. Too hard to sit with my knees together at 375 pounds... I'm 207 today at 13 months post-op. And I wore a dress. Hubby posted it on FB (didn't know he was going to) "My beautiful wife sporting her new dress." Awwww... he truly is my #1 supporter (ignore his messy man cave room though... oy!) Before photos are on my profile. I've decided to stop looking and posting before photos except on my anniversaries.

You look great! I love the color & the style of your dress!
I started wearing dresses a couple months ago. I love them now & want to wear them all the time but so far in this CA weather, I still get too cold, especially when I'm at work. I have my little portable heater on as I type this.
Yay for dresses!! It certainly makes me feel & look more girly now.

*laughing* I live in Austin and we're pushing triple digits. But yeah, it's nice to be girly now and then without constantly fussing with the dress :) That's why I stopped wearing them... it was a pain in the butt.

Yes, 2 definite NSVs, although I must say that my hubby has always been great and always complimentary. Didn't matter what weight I was, he is really truly awesome.

You look beautiful, love the color of the dress on you. What a great support your husband is.

I too have started wearing dresses & skirts all the time this summer, so much cooler in this blistering heat in IA!!

3 cheers for dresses!
