Wardrobe Fittings

A big part of filming any movie or commercial is, you guessed it – wardrobe. This is the part I used to HATE. In fact, I can attribute going “underground” for so long to those dreaded wardrobe fittings. “I love that on you, Valerie, but should we see if we have it in a size 14 for you?” UGH. How did I go from a size 6 to a 14 so fast? Well, now I know – emotional eating, unconscious eating, unhealthy choices, inconsistent exercise – but at the time, that number 14 felt like a personal assault. A reminder of how out of control I was regarding eating and, well, a lot of other things.

But this movie I’m filming now is a milestone for me because I got my 6 back in today’s fitting! Well, some 6's. I’m wearing 8’s, too. But all this hard work is paying off.

It…feels…so…good.

I did get a chance to do a weigh-in this week and I lost a WHOPPING 1/4-pound*, but I also lost two inches * in my hips! Not really ready for my hot pants, but that would be for a different kind of movie anyway. Kidding!

More to come next week. And I apologize for lagging on the blog entries. I’ve been falling into bed almost immediately after filming every night.
