    I am so happy to see such courageous women! I have NEVER owned a bikini because I have never liked my body naked. Even after I reach my goal weight, I am PRAYING for the courage to wear a monokini. Fingers crossed!

    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 am sorry but I think there is a reason why there are one piece swim suits, swim skirts, tankinis, cover-ups, etc. . I wore a two-piece last year but it was by far considered a "bikini".. I don't want parts of me falling or hanging out. And, I don't think others want to see it either. But, to each his/her own.

    You are right.. there is a reason for a one piece, have you ever tried to swim competitively in a 2 piece??? its almost impossible.

    To the ladies that have posted pictures, you look fantastic, and you make me want to go buy a bikini - not a tankini, not a 2 piece a damn bikini - i may never wear it out of the house but thank you!

    I'm not comfortable enough for a bikini picture. I think I would shrivel and die if I even took one... but, I saw this posted in another thread and I thought it was appropriate.

    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:

    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 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.

    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 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!!

    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!!
