I ate too much cheese and now my wedding dress won't do up....

[bowbluebell]

Help!

Can anyone suggest something I can wear under my dress that will make my waist slimmer? Is this a job for Spanx?

The dress has already got a boned corset, which was (on reflection, prematurely) altered! The corset obviously finishes at the waist, so dispersing fat downwards is fine!

Spanx and a boned corset in June? Could that be, quite literally, fatal?

Please don't suggest a crash diet. I am at heart a (thin, but not thin enough) glutton and just can't stop eating the cheese....

Thank you

The most important thing is to feel comfy on your wedding day

spanx and corset in June is not comfy!

Ditch the cheese, it's only a few weeks!

Yes agree with compo.

Just cut down a bit, step up the exercise and half a stone would go fairly easily.

I could not be doing with spanx and corsets on my wedding day - as you say it will be hot hopefully.

Or get them to let the dress out.

Hmmm - you can't stop eating cheese and your waist has grown...pregnant?

I did wonder that too Northern?

Definitely wouldn't do corsets and spanx if thats the case.

lol sorry to be mean but this has reaally made me chuckle!

go on one of those detox wrap thingys.....you could possibly lose a few inches that way. Or as others have said do more exercise, im also a glutton, but do a lot of excercise which vaguely compensates...

Since my wedding I've put on about two stone

the only time I was disciplined was the summer before my wedding

I was doing aerobics DVDs obsessively

come on girl you can do this!

Drink slimfast, live on special k, and in your wedding day know you've never looked better
you'll never forget that feeling
even when your old and fat like me you can look back on your wedding photos and say 'i was thin once'

I fear you ladies may be right on both fronts- cheese and Spanx!

I guess there are no quick fixes and I'd rather six weeks of cheese deprivation than a wedding day in agony.

I've never worn Spanx,are they really that bad?

Don't think I'm pregnant, I have always eaten too much cheese and have only been pregnant once.

Thanks for your sensible advice.

Get hula hoop & do that as much as possible from now until the day. Seriously - they are great for waists.
Also, if you did a short term no / v low carb diet you could keep eating the cheese and still lose an inch or 2?
