What diet plan are you trying? I'd be willing to give anything a shot...maybe if I know there are others doing the same thing it'll be easier!

I was going to ask the same thing!

lol it's called Cheat You Way Thin. Send me a PM and I'll send you the info if you want!

i'd been waiting for BL7 to start up before i started "cheat your way thin," but it's not looking like it's going to happen, and at this point i'm just procrastinating, lol. seems like a reasonable diet ... you get to eat 5 times a day and have one day per week to eat whatever you want ... sounds good to me (haha except for all those carb-free days ... ugh).

 

erika, thanks for posting your shopping experiences with faith 21. i'm thinking of ordering some stuff. i feel justified now since i just got rid of two huge bags of clothes.

[~*Lisa*~]

Lisa - I thought that I would have a hard time with the carb-free days, but it's not so bad. As long as you eat the other things required, you'll be fine. I'm on day 3 now, and still alive! lol

lisa, are you doing the protein shakes before bed? and if so, which ones did you buy (and do they taste like ass)? LOL

 

i bought a couple things from faith 21 last night ... i'll let you ladies know how it goes with the sizes. i got a few tops and a pair of pants (i'm almost certain the pants won't fit ... they never do! can't believe i ordered a pair online). the stuff is cheap tho (hoping it doesn't *look* cheap), and if you order over $75, shipping is free.

Lisa, none of the tops have looked cheap to me and have fit pretty good.

Or do they just come in when you need help with the zipper, etc? I know it sounds silly, but I'm totally freaked out by this. And what are you supposed to wear when you go to try on dresses for the first time - as in what type of bra, etc? I don't even own a strapless bra right now, but I know there are some strapless dresses that I want to try on. But I'd hate to buy a strapless bra just for this and then what if I don't buy a strapless dress? I'll never use that damn bra again, lol. Or will they tell me all of this when I make my appointment? I'm just wondering what to expect

I went to David's Bridal and they made me put on one of their strapless bra sort of corset thing and a slip so I was completely covered up. The sales girl was in with me to try on each gown. At other stores, I just wore my own bra and undies and I was able to have my mom or my friend help me into the gowns, and the sales ladies just helped with corset backs.
