    How long to drop a dress size?

    Agree with happybunny it totally depends on how much you have to lose and your current size. I lost 3st10lbs and only went from an 18 to a loose 16 :(, however my mum only had to lose a stone to go from a 14 to a 10/12. Good luck I'm sure if you stick to it that dress will be yours ;) x
