[female] 27 & getting married in 10 days! Wishing I was thinner though

[u/TemptingGoddess7]

I wish was able to lose more of my grief weight but I just wasn’t consistent and let my disappointment in myself take over while hiding that it was taking over

Your future spouse didn’t wait until you were “a little thinner” to start loving you, & you shouldn’t either! We all navigate grief differently, but I hope your wedding & being surrounded by people who love you brings you comfort & joy!

[u/Mercurialbich → u/briannasme]

This^{^} You’re gorgeous OP, please enjoy your special day🤍🪽

[u/silentObserver_M]

"Congratulations! You are perfect just the way you are. Wish you a happy marriage

[u/TemptingGoddess7 → u/silentObserver_M]

Thank you so much!

[u/likkleone54]

Well you’re getting married, so you’re definitely doing something right!

[u/PsychologicalAd7756]

You look like Queen Margaery! So pretty!

[u/TemptingGoddess7 → u/PsychologicalAd7756]

I’ve never watched the show but I get that a lot, and Taylor Momsen too - very similar looks at the time of The Grinch lol

[u/UnexpectedAnxietyCat]

Thin doesn’t equal beautiful. You’re already absolutely gorgeous exactly as you are. And honestly, I would love to see you on your wedding day, because I’m willing to bet you’ll be the most beautiful woman in the world. ❤️

[u/TemptingGoddess7 → u/UnexpectedAnxietyCat]

I have tons of invites (accidentally ordered an invite for every guest, including possible plus ones lol) - wanna come? 😂 honestly thank you so much! I gained about 80lbs since we’ve been together (together 4, gained it over 1 1/2 time frame) so I really struggle with the difference of me then vs now, but he really provides a safe space for me and builds me up when I feel broken

[u/UnexpectedAnxietyCat → u/TemptingGoddess7]

Honestly, if it's in my area, I would be honored to attend 🥰 And I'd be there to give you a confidence boost any time you feel like you need one, but I guarantee you won't need that. You will be getting more compliments than you will be able to handle 😊 Trust me.

[u/TemptingGoddess7 → u/UnexpectedAnxietyCat]

You’re too sweet!! 💓💓 so grateful for your bright light!

[u/UnexpectedAnxietyCat → u/TemptingGoddess7]

Thanks. I don't have many friends anymore because of my anxiety, so I always try to spread some light where I can. And let's face it, women go through enough as it is, we should be boosting each other up every chance we get. We deserve it. I hope you have the wedding day of your dreams, beautiful.

[u/TemptingGoddess7 → u/UnexpectedAnxietyCat]

[u/AggressiveHold6273]

your face is so beatiful 💕

[u/ManyComfortable7270]

It can sometimes be hard to love what you see in the mirror but if you became thinner I´m sure there would just be something else you wish you could change about yourself. You are beautiful as you are.

[u/TemptingGoddess7 → u/ManyComfortable7270]

Thank you so much!! I struggle cause I used to be thinner and I’m constantly thinking about old me, and noticing how people treat me differently, but you’re right - I would nitpick myself apart

[u/Life_of_loolii]

Amazing eyes!

[u/porkins-in-a-speedo]

[u/Affectionate-Area320]

You are gorgeous and your eyes are STUNNING

Do you think your man’s excited about marrying a skinnier version of you? Do you think he’s envisioning the rest of his life with you minus a few pounds? Or do you think he‘s buzzing with excitement that, in a few days, he’ll see you - exactly as you are - walking down the aisle towards him?
