    Default Dream dress

    While in Macy's yesterday I saw my dream dress. The ultimate Calvin Klien grey belted dress that is my fantasy. Trying to keep my eye on that price. I may stalk it if it goes on sale and pre buy just as an inspiration.

    Although I'm loosing it will be a long time until most of my work dresses get too big. Most Are size 24 - but my size 16 nanny can borrow Nd wear some of them. I hardly ever wear pants (then I'd have to wear a suit jacket too - not a fun thing in florida).

    I reckon you buy it when the price is right. Nothing like a plan and a goal to work towards.

    Nothing works better than a little motivation!!! Buy the dress and put in a place in your closet that will force you to look at it everytime you open the door. I have a classic linen dress that I bought a few years back when I got my lapband but because of problems with the band, I never lost enough weight to fit into it. Well, I'm betting that next June it will fit like a glove. Keep going and keep bing motivated and you will rock that dress in no time!
    Warm regards,

    I have a pink Batman shirt hanging in my closet that I am about 60 lbs away from, but it was on clearance for $3. I take it off the rack and look at it every morning to give me a little pick me up because I know I will be able to wear it in the spring :-) Go for it when the price is right!

    I have thought of buying a beautiful dress to keep me inspired on my trek through all of this. I have seen so many beautiful dresses that I would have liked to of had but they didn't come in big booty judy sizes for me and if they did they would not have looked nice at all. Thanks for posting this it gives me some thing new to think of to keep me on track.....
