Re: Self-concious about a wedding this weekendFrom: Christina (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 29 Apr 2003 12:55:32 -0700 (PDT)
Angela, I know where you are at. I was in my best friends wedding in September and the PCOS made me gain a lot of weight. I though I would never wear a strapless dress but I did. I thought I was going to die....... My soon to be husband was the best man and I cried because I didn't want him or anyone else to see my fat arms. I got a sleek shaw and it turned out to be ok......... I did go tanning though. ......... No matter how big you think you look you will look fabulous..........In fact i have to were another bridesmaid dress in July that is stapless...... I am very nervous but I did order a shaw and it really helps me to feel covered up...... But you go strut your stuff girl........... you will look fine........

I had a hell of a time finding a dress...all i had to do was pick one out in a dark blue...i couldnt find one in a size 18 that didnt make me feel like a sausage..I finally found some in JC Penny's in the dark blue that looked decent on me. But it was July, so I had to wear spaghetti straps. Everyone was going to be at that wedding that I used to hang around with when i was skinny...And i knew what tehy were all thinking..("woah, she blew up! what ahppened to her!!) blah blah anyways, what i did, since i was sooo self conscious, is i bought a sheer wrap that matched the color of the dress! it was big enough to cover my fat arms and ! it looked classy and elegant as well! Tell the bride that you are really self conscious. I am sure she will understand. I got married in Nov. and some of my girls were bigger than others. they came to me and told me how they felt self conscious about this or that, and i told them that no matter what, they are beautiful. but if they felt that way, to go out and buy a wrap that matches the dress, and that was fine. I hope all works out for you.... GOOD LUCK!

All the other bridesmaids are like <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>5'10 and skinny rails. And the bridesmaid dresses are strapless. I <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>haven't even received mine in the mail but I'm just a wreck about how my <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>upper arms will look - with my acne and how I wish I was skinny like the <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>rest of them. I'm thinking about getting that spray on tan to see if it <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>kind of covers up the redness on my arms - but I just can't believe I'm <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>having to wear that dress. OH, and stilleto heels. YUCK YUCK YUCK! I <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>need some encouragement!! Thanks!! Angela <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV></DIV>
