A little backgrounder – I was 105 lbs before I got pregnant with my 1st baby. After giving birth to Lucas, I was still 135. I told my doctor, there must be another one inside, take it off!! My 4th baby is more than a year now, my current weight? okay, away na ito!
Liezl gave birth 2 and a half months before her renewal of vows.
She was still bloated when we had our 1st fitting, not a month after giving birth – wide waist, slight bulges, big boobs which was a blessing because she practically had none before pregnancy 😀 She fitted the muslin and she looked great, curves and mounds in all the right places.
After a week we fitted again, I nipped the waist and the hipline, she lost inches on those parts, inches! That’s when I started hating her.
For our third, I nipped again the waistline and the hipline! It’s official, I hate her. How can you lose so much when I didn’t!?! waaaaaah!!!
Less than 2 weeks before the wedding, she fitted again and it was perfect. I’m happy, the weight has stabilized and no more nipping. She’s a normal female human after all, life is fair. 🙂 Dry clean na lang and she’s all set
Wedding day – I was there to assist her, I dressed her up and … ang luwag sa bewang!!!!! grrrr almost two inches !! those precious inches!!! I would have killed her for that. but it was her wedding day! so I just blamed myself – I should’ve fitted her again…. an hour before hehehe
Thank God I had a brooch accent for the back, I slightly nipped the excess inch and she was perfect!
I swear, sobra akong inggit!!
galing no? what a wedding can do to your body! best weight loss program.

denden! bwahahahahah 😉 crazy comment! 🙂
but isnt it common for brides to be to lose weight before the wedding naturally daw due to the stress of planning a wedding?
an ofcmate of mine got “reprimanded” for being too thin 2 weeks before the wedding. eh what can she do daw, shes stressed!
wow ha!
