  • Okay, be nice.
    I have been VERY fortunate in my journey and don't have too many physical reminders of the fact that I used to weigh a whopping 294 pounds (no bat wings or neck waddle or other obvious signs); however, even though I am fit and healthy now and it doesn't show up as long as I'm fully clothed, I have some pretty awful loose skin and insane stretch marks.
    Like I said, be nice.

    I don't own a bikini and I have not worn a bikini since I was 2 years old--true story, those are the last pics of me wearing a 2 piece bathing suit LOL. So kudos to ALL of you beautiful women (no matter where you are with your weight loss/fitness/health goals) for posting your pics! This past year I have lost 45 pounds and still hate how I look in a bathing suit...but hoping to change those thoughts to something positive. Thanks to everyone for sharing your "befores" and "afters." You all inspire me!

    kudos to any and everyone that has posted their bikini pics here.

    almost (ALMOST) makes me want to go ahead and take off my shirt in public at some point.

    you are some very brave ladies :)

    I'm inspired... I actually took a pic tonight in a sports bra... but I'm not posting it here!!! I'm super bigger than all you women!
    I think I'll save it for a time when I post before and after pics.

    My goal is to get a bikini this summer! I have always worn one pieces or stuff that hid my body because it was not worthy of a bikini. I am going to work hard with my diet and exercise!

    Can't wait til I can get into one, I will by next summer though. If I work hard enough to lose 50 pounds by summer I might get a nice one piece, instead of the swim dresses I usually wear!! Just need to get the confidence to wear it..
  • Can't believe I'm doing this. I don't own a bikini. I've never, in 22 years, owned a bikini...not even when I was a nice size 6/8. I thought I was a whale then, of course, lol. Sigh. I will buy a bikini by the end of the year!

    Wow Everyone! You all look great!

    This page is totally inspirational. I might even get up the courage to buy a bikini myself this coming summer. If I do, I'll post that pic then.

    Aside from the weight issues, I had a bad bikini experience that made me switch to dark body-covering one pieces. I post it because someone might find it funny.

    Years ago while sailing, I wore a vintage 1970s bikini which had a dark chocolate background with lots of closely spaced pink and yellow flowers. At one point, we passed a boat full of teenage boys who started whooping and hollering and waving madly at us which of course made me feel like I must be looking amazingly sexy.

    Hours later, we returned to dock and I separated from my family to go use the facilities. On my way back to the boat, my sister started gesturing emphatically and came running towards me in a panic. Apparently, from a distance, all the colours of the bikini blended together and matched my skin tone! Everyone all day long had thought I was naked!!!!

    I can't believe I'm doing this, lol! I know it's not a bikini but it's the closest I'm going to get for a while. Hehe!

    Don't think I've ever owned or worn a bikini, remember as a kid I had a green all in one costume with Minnie Mouse on the front, wore it til it eventually went see-through and I had to throw it away :(

    Well done for all of you who have posted your pics, you look great :)
