Calling all *Curvacious* women!!

quick question ladies.. I would really love to wear a strapless maxi dress while in JA for a friends wedding... but here is my delima.. I wear a 42 F and cant find a strapless bra that really supports me, or a clear stapped bra.. if any of you ladies are "well" endowed in the boobs..have you had this problem before, or if you know of a good strapless or where I can find a clear strap bra.. i would really appreciate it.. btw here is a pic of the dress

Well for my extra rolls I got my SPAX in the mail today plus a nice strapless bra I can use when I try on dresses. Im so excited!!!

Not sure what constitutes as curvaceous, but I'd like to think I've got curves I will never be stick thin and that's ok with me!

Just had my wedding and have to say that a corset dress was the way to go for me -- it held in all the jiggles that I couldn't get rid of before the wedding AND I didn't have to wear a bra despite my 36D's Also made me relax and not have to worry about eating like a bird leading up to my wedding -- my family is Filipino and DH's is black = major food, all day, all the time!!!

I read a bit of this thread before I left for my wedding and I must say -- all you ladies are beautiful, awesome and so much fun! *many hugs*

Okay ladies.. I am going to give the chub rub a try today.. when I go jogging today.. I got it from a running store her in DC for $8 and it has sunscreen in it as well

I am so glad I found this thread! I am definitely a curvy girl, always have been, always will be! Even when my son was younger and I was a stay at home mom and I had time to go to the gym every day, I was still curvy. So when you work out 6 days a week for almost 2 hours a day consistantly for over a year and can still only get down to a 12/14, you just know you're destined to be a big girl, lol. Granted, I was toned and I felt fabulous, but I will just never be skinny. I haven't worked out regulary in awhile so I'm up to a 20/22 these days, but just joined the gym and plan on dropping some weight before the wedding (I hope)!

We've just recently started planning everything during the last month, so I haven't even gotten around to trying on dresses but I'm kind of nervous that I won't find "the one".

Hi.. curvy gal here, too.. just joined this forum not too long ago and love it -- so much information!

Anyway I have a question -- did any of you curvy gals do BD photos, and if so, how was the experience?

Was the photog nice ? Were the pics flattering? Was it uncomfortable?

I'm thinking of doing it and appreciate any advice/info!

So i used the body glide today and this weekend..and lets just say I loves it!!. it goes on really smooth.. not too thick or greasy. didnt rub off with my hands either. kept the thighs and other areas pretty lubed up.. and i am not sure if i mentioned it before, but it was SPF25 also.
