This may not be an easy question to answer, but about how many pounds do you have to lose in order to lose about an inch of weight off your hips?<br><br>
I'm the maid of honor in my sisters wedding this summer and I've bought this dress of ebay (its the same designer/color as the rest of the girls). <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEBTOX:IT&item=270214219708&_trksid=p3984.cTODAY.m238.lVI" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...TODAY.m238.lVI</a><br><br>
Anyway, the top fits, but the hips are tight. The dress can be taken out about an inch, but I think I might need 2 inches for it to fit right. I'm at my winter weight now of 145 and I usually weigh 137ish thru the summer (its an August wedding). I'm just curious how much I might have to lose in order for it to fit. I'm all for losing some and looking better, but if its going to take 15-20 lbs, thats not going to be healthy for me and maybe I'd better just order the other dress in a larger size. What would you do?<br><br>
