Weight gain & dress shopping 👰🏽 I recently went dress shopping, both in Toronto and in Vancouver. It was super fun to try on dresses and finally get to experience it as a bride, but when I got home I couldn’t help but feel discouraged after seeing some pictures from the back because I couldn’t zip into some of the sample size dresses - which is RIDICULOUS. Yes, my body has changed over the course of the pandemic, but I’m still healthy. I’m still happy. I’m actually way more active and stronger than I’ve ever been. There’s something about weddings that seems to bring out the worst kind of comparison behaviour. So my plan over the course of wedding planning madness is to choose patience, gratitude, and gratefulness over self-discouragement and comparing myself to sample sizes. (Also - this isn’t THE dress, but I do love a chic crepe moment 👰‍♀️ ) For past/future brides: how did you manage the wedding planning craziness? #bodypositivity #healthylivingjourney #weddingdressshoppin...
