Always a bridesmaid, never the bride

My oldest and dearest friend is getting married next October. This past Friday, I had to go and try on a dress for the wedding. I am probably the largest girl in the wedding party.

Does this bother me? Yes, of course. I was not as bothered, though, when they literally stuffed me into a size 12 dress.

When I say stuffed, I looked like a hot dog that was overcooked and the casing was about to explode. But it was a size 12 and I had it on. I even have a picture to prove it.

I told the other girls in the wedding party that I'm not going to be the "fat" bridesmaid in this wedding. I am looking forward to continuing my weight-loss journey in the hopes that I will have reached my goal of 165 pounds by then or at least be real damn close.

I always knew that losing weight was not going to be a walk in the park, so to speak, but I never dreamed it would be this difficult for me.

I know what I must do to achieve the goals I have set for myself. I just need to really put myself first for once and stop being so lazy at times. I know that everyone has their days when they would rather lay around and do nothing. Laziness is not an option anymore and I need to finally stick with that. Just like before, thanks again for all your encouragement and support.

Don't worry, you won't be the bride's maid forever, the time will come when you become the bride.

So start thinking from now of where you would like your wedding to be, I recommend to you to have a Destin Beach Wedding, I am sure you will love it.

You will enjoy your wedding on the white sandy beach, with the blue sky & clear water around.

Good luck to You

Good luck to you, wish you a happy marriage.

Don't freak out because of the wedding preparations, it shows how the couple can share life together after.
one of the most things you need to pay attention to is to hire a wedding photographer.

If I were you, I would hire a proffesional photographer to capture these happy moments to make it memorable for ever.

This special day comes only once in a life time, so don't miss the chance of recording it the right way.

Wedding is one of the most important milestones in one’s life. Thus, the groom and the bride try to make it perfect as they exchange their “ I do’s”. Any bride would wish that she would look beautiful and sexy during that important day. Losing weight is just one way of making them feel beautiful and sexy. Speaking of wedding have you heard the wedding of the two prominent individual ? Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom wedding pictures sold for $300,000 – and it's anyone's guess as to why? None of the Kardashians have ever done anything worth mentioning, only two of them have ever been to college, and only one of their parents did. Essentially, we're talking really lucky hillbillies that only get anything because they look good. I wonder if they put this ridiculous amount paid for the Khloe Kardashian wedding pics on a company credit card.
