Still Debating...

I have this dress...http://ashleysbridalandtux.com/It is the dress on the left and I am debating on whether I want to lose the weight to wear it or find a new one I cant seem to make up my mind

When is the wedding? How much weight would you have to lose? Can you just have it altered? I wouldn't trust myself to have to lose weight to fit into my wedding dress, unless it was only like 5 pounds to make myself feel better in it.

Well I fit into it when I bought it and then I gained weight when I started my new job... 30 pounds. I have until april  24th to lose it though

If you were at that point before, and just recently put on the weight, it shouldn't be quite as hard to lose. I'm guessing the new job is something less active than a previous job (I battle secretary butt, lol) so it's just a lifestyle change that is needed. If you think you can be disciplined enough to lose the weight, I'd stick with that dress (it is beautiful!). If you don't trust yourself to do it, I wouldn't risk it. I know how a goal can be set and not met, and then you'll be in quite the pickle.

Yeah I went from being on my feet all day filing to sitting at a desk making phone calls. So that is mainly why I gained the weight. I had also just recently moved out of my parents house so I decided it would be easier to eat at burger king than cook dinner. However I have lost 30 pounds before so I know I can do it. Im just for some odd reason having a hard time getting the motivation. If it wasnt for the workout classes I am doing that I enjoy I dont think I could get the initiative to work out
