    *pic removed*


    so much work to do to get back to better than November... but, I have 7 months, so I can do it.

    truly not trying to start qanything but your tattoo switched sides? how'd you do that?

    Its blatantly obvious she was trying to pull one over on all of us by photoshopping her tattoo on to her prettier hip!

    lmao! :laugh: busted..... greatness!

    You're all wrong. It was obviously a skin graft.
  • I agree that you don't have to be tiny to wear a bikini.
    But please understand (it is just my opinion) that there should be an age limit. If you are 82 a bikini just may not be for you. :huh:

    I hope you're joking. One of the many things I look forward to as I age is not giving a **** about ANYTHING because I'm old and I'll do what I want and be damned if some youngster tries to tell me I can't wear a bikini because OMG I might show a shred of confidence at that age instead of fear.

    Respectfully disagree. When I am 82, I am going to rock a bikini! It's a big beach, don't look if you don't like! :happy:

    This. People should be able to whatever they want whether or not others think it "may not be for you." It's sad how judgemental our society has become.

    I'm loving the confidence! Which is a prerequisite to sexy, BTW.

    You ALL look amazing!

    I have loved reading through this thread! =) I'm so proud of everyone that has shared and all of those who've given *compliments and support*! way to go. To the rude people, just move along! It's people like you that make it so that I can't go in public places in a bikini...ugh! This is from this summer, I captured on my iphone.. I was at 175# here.. I'm hoping it doesn't turn out huge! lol I always have issues with my photobucket pics!!

    H... yeah girl! no prob. You rock that bikini. :) Any plans on your next show bikini? I love that color btw.

    I was shooting for May 19th, but since I've been out of commission the past 2 months, that's not going to happen. So, instead, my next competition is September 15th. As far as the bikinni goes, I'm not sure just yet... my daughter wants me to go blue this time, but its too popular, so I don't know.

    Oh, ladies .. don't mince words ... the point is that none of us will have any photoshop work, we're not supermodels, and we're not paid to 'look good' for a living... Regardless of your size, it's easy to have self image issues and be afraid to wear a bikini. Real women have insecurities.

    My apologies for my fattness skewing your impression of my statements.

    Love your confidence! Makes me want to go out and buy a bikini!!

    The one is a mirror picture, obviously...So it's going to be on the opposite side...

    I should have know better than to post under a thread title that is misspelled. Bikinis! Well, I guess perhaps you didn't really mean that - haters gonna hate. :(

    here, meditate on this pic of Ernestine Sheppard. If you don't have a clue as to who this 75 year old is, you need to get one quick. :)

  • Wow, I am in AWE! I wish I had half the confidence you all have! I have nothing to complain about, other than I do have tons of stretch marks and 15 to loose. But I can't bring myself to flaunt it! And it seems like every 5 years (and 5 lbs heavier) I look back and say "What the heck was I complaining about?". I guess my point is that we all have insecurities, but this post is proof to me that I need to chill out and just let go a little.

    You all are BEAUTIFUL!!!

    Ok, I'm going to be to be brave, too! This thread inspired me to try on my swimsuit from a couple years ago (I refused to wear one last year) and it was too big. I did some digging and found a swimsuit from back when I was thin (5+ years ago) and it fits!!! This really puts my weight loss into perspective! I will definitely be wearing a bikini this summer! :happy:

    Absolutely! There's something about scars that I have always loved. They tell a story. You survived something! I had a BF in HS that had one from the top of his forehead down through his eyebrow. It was sexy as heck, and I used to tell him so and kiss it :smooched:

    All shots of me in my bikini have been burned or stored away in a sacred vault and buried deep! lol
