    I'm in! However, my pix will be of me in capris, then shorts and then to progress to a swimming suit...hopefully! At 265lbs, I don't own a swimming suit.

    Come on MEN - join too!

    I'll be a secret competitor, like the BL....lol cuz I'm not posting a picture in a bathing suit, 1 cuz I'm SKEERED of that:noway: and 2 because I am way way way too modest.:blushing:

    I'm going to follow along though and take them on those days. Thanks for the motivation.:flowerforyou:

    I think this is a great idea! I'm not sure I'll post my pics, though.

    I recently bought a suit in my usual size only to find it was a little too big. My smaller size should be in on June 1st, but it's definitely going to be a bit snug. If it's not too obscene, I'll post a pic, lol.

    this is a no stress "competition" just simply for those who wish to post, you can edit out your head if you want...hehe.

    But this is two part...

    getting motivated to working out...

    also building the self confidence to show your body to the world.

    many of us have self confidence issues, lets start to break those barriers down.

    side to side won't be needed but I am sure we can figure out how to do them as a group.

    those who are in...fantastic....those who wish to participate privately...go for it, just be true to yourself! :)

    I actually just took pictures of myself in a bathing suit recently for this particular reason - I wanted to compare my body now and in future months... i figured that if I have a print out picture of what I look like now, and an inspiring picture of what I want to achive,, it helps to keep me motivated. Great idea and I hope it works for everyone! =)
    I'm unfortunately too shy to upload any pictures of myself but will however, continue to do this privately.. =)
