Wedding - March 6th

[Beccarollover]

What do you think I can achieve by then? Considering Ive been doing pretty pants on my diet? Do you think its worth trying a fad diet so I look good in my (yet to be bought outfit)

There are people there I want to wow!

Can you pretend its your wedding? I lost half a stone in the week before my wedding through sheer stress! ( have been told since I look too skinny in my dress. Was going for the slim, not skinny look)

Becca, you could become diabetic like me! only temperarily of course! I lost 4 kilos in 3 days, puked my lungs out. Only just getting back to normal now. No but on a serious note!!!!!! You can wow people with your brain-- what I have read on your threads, you will have no trouble. And carry your confididence, we are mumsnetters, no-one will knock us off our pedistle......

Plus there are always those enormous thigh and belly-crushing girdly things. They're great for getting a waist where none exists. Still, with a reasonable diet, not too strict or faddy, I reckon you could still drop half a stone by March 6th without being unhealthy.

I just find the flab finds it way out of those somewere else!! Hi Survivour, how u doing?

Hi melsy, doing much better today, but I'm on a high today as you can see, and I have posted on everything I have got my hands on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a nasty bug going around had it too last week , lost 3lb's. Sorry u got it too. Now my dh has it whilst working in Hong kong.

Becca ,I bet youll look fantastic anyway.

Thanks all

I need an outfit and cant think what to get, anyone seen anything gorge?

what variety of loveliness are you looking for? flouncy? dramatic?

hmmm not sure - I don't tend to do flounce too much - but my usual going out style isnt formal enough for a wedding.

Possibly go for fab dress and shoes

Or bodice and trousers

Something I can wear again to a party

What shape/colouring are you?

And how posh the wedding?

It wont be ultra ultra posh - reasonably respectable hotel for whole event - will be changing for night time do so just need daytime outfit.

Im blonde, size 12, pale skin but will no doubt be st tropezed!

Problem area stomach - quite skinny arms and butt

Quite fancy a prom dress

How about a smart dress with ruched (sp?) bit round the tummy?

prom dresses v big this season, lots of florals & pastels if your complexion can take it

I often wear pink and black (no comments coddy) and have seen some nice black with pink polka dots, strapless with a little bow. I might look for one like this as i have lots of bags/shoes/accessories to match

Two things

Black at a wedding~?
Will I carry it off with my overhang

I love pink and black (puzzled face)

two words
support underwear

(is it the "never wear colour with black" mantra of trinny & susannah??)

thought u would comment on my black and pink stilletoes

so what about black at wedding?

church or register office?

Black is fine Becca, especially if you are wearing another colour with it. I know lots of people who have worn black at weddinds, including bride's mothers and groom's mothers. No one ever looked 'wrong' or out of place either.

Actually, I know a bride who wore black too - it was a small wedding in New York. I didn't go but seen the photo's - a friend's sister. She wore a blacktrouser suit.

The others were church weddings BTW

OH, and it you have any worries of overhang - get to M&S underwear department for some of their 'magic' type knickers. Worked a treat under my cocktail dress at the ball! Don't get them too tight though as you won't be able to eat much - there again, might help with the diet as well then
