Those of you who have been watching my signature may have figured out that I'm in the middle of a pretty significant weight loss journey right now. My goal was to order, and wear, a dress two sizes smaller than the day I first tried it on. I got brave when I ordered my dress, because I had only dropped one size, and ordered it a size down from what I was wearing that day in the hopes that I'd continue my success and fit into it.
Two months later, I finally hit my next milestone, the reward for which was to try on my dress. This is the first time I've gotten it out of the bag it came from David's in!
In May 2011, the first time I went dress shopping, I wore a size 20. When I went shopping again at the end of January, after dropping 18 lbs, I wore a size 18.
Today, with 33 lbs less of me, I fit perfectly into a size 16 dress.
May 29, 2011: 233 lbs, size 20
April 30, 2012: 200 lbs, size 16
I still have plenty of time if I need to reorder it smaller. Right now it fits just right and wouldn't need any alterations. If I lose another 10-15 lbs (which I'm hoping to) in the next 2 months, I will be reordering it as *gasp* a size 14.
