For fun, I tried on the red dress I made in May, now that I’m 15 kilograms lighter. Wow. The difference is amazing! I definitely cannot wear it anymore, notice the huge gaposis around the waist area, and how the wrap part is just basically hanging there?

I guess I’ll have to make a size 18 next time I try the pattern! (I had made a 24, if I remember well…)

This is precisely the motivation boost I needed, now that the cold, dark days of Fall and Winter are coming…

Congrats! You look great!

Thanks! Still about 25kg to go, so it’s a long way down…

Congratulations! I hope this makes you feel as good as you look!

You look great! congrats on the weight loss!

Congrats on the weight loss. Isn’t it wonderful to have to make smaller clothes. Good job and hope you will continue to go down in weight.

Congratulations on the weight loss. That is great that you can do before and after pictures in the same dress. What a difference–I think that even though it is too big for you now, that style (in a new size!) would be very flattering since it defines your waist so nicely.

CONGRATS !

BIG HUGS FROM

YOUR GRAND-MOTHER who loves you either way !!

I am looking forward next summer ….

With the 70s and 80s back in style, I just loving vintage clothing from the thrift shops. You can find designers like Chanel and Armani for cheap there. Ebay is great too!
