Oh no then tears


Lesley got a phone call on friday to say her & the bridesmaids dresses were hear so Lesley,Debbie & myself went to the shop today for a fitting Debbie was first to go & behind the curtain all we heard was OH NO followed by take it off & lots of crying.Both Debs & Les have put weight on since they first got messured & the zip wouldn't go up on Debbie's dress she was so ashamed she said she doesn't want to be bridesmaid but as Nyona explained to her she has 2 & a bit years to loose some weight.I managed to take a photo of her but she wont look at it.Then came Lesley's turn everything seemed to be alright but Nyona asked me to help hold the dress closed whilst she did the zip up it did go up but was a bit nip & tuck.Lesley's dress is to big at the chest but a bit tight round the tummy area so the 3 of us are going to do all we can to loose the weight put it this way Debbie & Lesley have no choice but to loose the weight me to i don't want to be seen as FAT mother of the bride.Lesley chose her jewellery,shoes & veil today & seeing it all on her together brought a lump to my throat.Tell you though just as well we have 2 & a bit years to go or it would be a complete disaster Nyona told them to leave any more fittings till at least 6-8 months before the wedding so that gives the girls enough time to loose the weight.As for the other 3 bridesmaids we don't need to worry about them as they don't have any weight issues they are skinny Minnie's.So that's the latest up date on the wedding situation thank god for that I'm stressed just now.I have put on a sneak preview but ssshhh dont tell Lesley.
