no
:icon_evil_laugh:
Nope, but only 25-30 pounds to lose. That's doable, right?
yes
Alright, as soon as it gets warm enough to step outside I'll get to work on it.
Bikini, not yet, but I was in South Florida (Lake Worth/Palm Beach County) and did wear a once piece at the beach and at the pool where my parents live and no issues at all. I need to loose about 20 lbs before I'd feel comfortable in a bikini.
I just wore my first ever bikini back in February! Summer came early this year to San Francisco. Last summer when I started hrt I thought it would be years (plus surgery) before I felt comfortable enough to do that; going full time gave me a huge self esteem boost :D
Bikini? Hell yes.

Yeah, I'm the master of excuses too! My treadmill and I have finally stopped fighting each other tho. Progress is slow in terms of numbers but Im exchanging fat for muscle and getting FIT for the first time in my life since my metabolism betrayed me.
Something helpful I remind myself and truly believe (but sounds lame) is that you don't need energy to exercise - you GET energy from exercise.
Oh, I'm really interested to find out where y'all buy Skimpy swimsuits? Most stores in the mall only carry the max butt coverage variety.
You tell me.

Hmmm...bikini in two months? I'll just be hi- beaming everyone.
Sorry Southern Hemisphere here were headin for winter snow is just starting to fall in the alpine areas victoria.
:)
I would look wrong in a bikini. Plus, I would have to lose at least 2 inches off the waist, have larger hips, and bigger breasts for it to look right on me.
Wouldn't mind losing a little bit of belly fat first but i'm pretty much good to go!
Not yet. I am still dieting and at least I have to loose 3kg before mid of May. We will spend two weeks on Lake Garda in northern Italy than with my small twins.
My breast augmentation is next week. My first summer in bikini. I am so happy.
I wish I could wear one, but my thighs look like crap. I swear they are aging faster than the rest of me. Its only gotten worse. I started noticing some unusual changes in that area about 5 years ago and its change big time since.
I'm not at the beach to impress anyone...I'll be wearing a two-piece (bikini top, regular bottom w/skirt) when sunning or swimming.
My thighs have lost some nearly all muscle definition, but they've also gotten more compliments from people.
wow suzi you are GORGEOUS!
<--------- Don't think anyone would want to see that in a bikini, lol.

I would! Just get one to match the blue ribbon in your hair, and you're good to go!!
I completley agree its not about everyone else, its about how you feel, everyone should have the chance to wear a bikini!
Give me another two years... :(
Actually, I've already worn a two piece on the beach a number of times. Even when I was a tad chubby in the tummy, lol. It was skirted, but I prefer modesty. But me, having lived on the coast for so long just don't find going to any beach a great fun thing so much anymore. Unless its to fish, then...
so i am new to this... are one peices just like way out of style?

It is mostly about style. You can also get a lot more sun in a two piece vs a one piece. I'm long torso, so I have to make sure a once piece is for a long torso. (Speedo makes a lot of style that way.) Nothing wrong with a one piece and I wore one a lot this past week in Florida visiting my parents. (It was a Speedo with racerback style.) I wished my thighs looked better in it, but I looked a lot better than a lot of women at the beach and pool, which is a good thing and the area is very body positive. (Palm Beach County.)
that makes so much since, i hate my upper thights, stretch marks, and i had bad rashes as a kid :( i love bikinis, but well maybe ill try and sport one of those new skirt bikini things
Also look into tankinis...cross between a tank top and a bikini top.
Thank you so much Beth those look amazing!
I hope to be in a bikini by Summer 2017! Sometimes I think Ill never be able to wear one but I also thought Id never be able to wear makeup, dresses, and heels...look at me now lol.
I'm thinking because my tummy needs work cut off jeans and a bikini top is my best hope
oh Stephanie you will be beautiful!
thanks, you made my day
Bikini... naah probably not. I'm still pre-op and all that... But burkini might work!
youtube princess jewel tucking :) i bet you could totally pull off a bikini
I would like to be able to wear that bikini. However, it would be rather difficult with
that disgusting appendage.

You could wear a tankini (a 2 piece suit with full coverage). The coverage is the same as for a full one piece but it is more convenient to wear.
Uh...well...uh...no, actually I'm going to buy a pair of sexy trunks and maybe a swim-binder. But still, cool topic. Where I live it's still freeeeezing....
You ladies are strong (in a spiritual way) and beautiful. Good luck this summer
