    Ha, Elixia, Me too!! I had to take mine to my mum's house 150 miles away as I couldn't risk the constant temptation of taking the day off work to sit around in my dress! Smiley winking

    Eek I'd be desperate to try it on too in that case, can you get a BM or someone round to help you get in it? Or take it round theirs!

    Well done on the weight loss. You'll be having to have it taken in at this rate.

    Not quite as bad but when I get home from work, and my OH is on a late shift, I walk around the house in my wedding shoes and tiara...

    Not quite the vision I hope I'll be on the day, as I walk around in a vest top and pj bottoms!

    I couldnt be trusted with my dress if it was at my house, I've already been back to the shop 4 times to try it on again. Fitting is at the end on April, will try and hold out til then!!!

    Soon enough Elixia!

    Bet you're so excited now, I'm already giddy and I have 6 months ?

    Haha, fortunately I resist temptation as my dress is in now, but is stored at the shop (covered by insurance).

    My dress arrived today, at my mums house 150 miles away. Now she is going to America for two months so I can't even go and try it on until she gets back! I ordered it off the internet so not even seen it in the flesh yet, but did Skype it earlier!! It looks beautiful I can't wait.

    Well done on the weight loss. I am on a mission now to lose some before I try it on. At least you can have a sneaky peek whenever you feel like it

    Wow 2 stone weight loss! Well done you! Healthy eating & exercise? I need a kick up the bum to try shift the weight....was in a car accident 13 months ago, just whiplash....although when I say "just" whiplash it was awful! Literally couldn't even walk the dog for over 2 months let alone anything else! I'm 1.5 stone over my normal now....at 10st 11lbs I'm certainly not overweight but want to get back to my norm!

    My dress is in the loft....haven't seen it for a couple of months but after BM shopping on Saturday I reeeeally wanted to put it back on!! xx

    My friends and I have decided we're going to do this once I'm married, otherwise the dresses never get worn again!

    I know what you mean though, I want to put my dress on and just swish around the house. Might get an odd look though if someone comes to the door!!
