Can't sit in my dress only 5 days till the wedding

Tesha, on July 23, 2018 at 2:44 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 10
HELP! I can't sit in my dress and we can't get it altered now. I got put on predinisone and gained 30 lbs and just got off of it which is why I hadn't tried the dress on earlier. I usually lose the weight right after it, but haven't this time. Any ideas on helping me sit? The thighs are just to tight.

    I guess you could try those wrap things and see if they can push some of the water weight out??

    Take it to a seamstress. I bet they can let it out in five days. Let them know the story.

    Id try and get it altered. Any last minute weight loss strategies would stress you out and potentially make you feel sick & weak on your wedding day.

    Oh no! That is super stressful! You could get another dress to change into after the first dance. People would be so impressed that you have two dresses! You could get something cute and short, like a fun little white party dress for dancing the night away!

    Some ideas if you go the second dress option Smiley smile I personally think this is the least stressful option and you will be comfortable for the rest of the reception after the first dance Smiley smile

    CUT ALL CARBS, you will lose a lot of water weight and sometimes that can be near 10lbs alone.

    I second finding a seamstress asap. They may be able to help. Also like a pp said get a reception dress. Stressing about trying to lose the inches in 5 days is going to make it worse which will hinder your results.
