When did you consider a bikini?

I'm just curious ladies, what size were you when you even considered a bikini? I thought by now I'd be ready, but I'm not so sure... I'm just curious if any one would consider one at my current size or if that would probably be one of those "OMG I can't believe she wore that." kind of moments at the pool lol.

    I've never not considered a bikini.

    I've got a friend that's probably about 250 and she wears a bikini likes it's no one's business.

    I've never been brave enough for a bikini.

    Probably when I get to my goal on 140. We will see how my stomach looks then. Wouldn't be caught dead in one now. I like to quote the saying "just because you can, doesn't mean you should".

    Once I fit in one :)

    I've bought one a few weeks back and once it fits well, I'll wear it but only at home ;)

    For public use, I am hoping to fit into my tankini with shorts again - better start looking for it soon. Haven't had a chance to wear it in about 5 or 6 years :)

    I used to wear them all the time, and I am working on getting back there. Love them!

    We have a pool where I live, in the apartment complex. I can fit in one now, but I've never had one. I've never been thin enough for one. I have a photo I took this morning on my profile page of my belly, it's next to one that says 180 back in Novemeber and then today at 137. I have a hard time determine if I'm being to hard on myself or if its truth and I shouldn't. I have a hard time with "Who care's what everyone else thinks." Because honestly I care what people think haha.

    I dont really think it matters what size u are or how much u weigh
    I have a thin as a rail GF with no muscle/size zero friend who looks Ok in a bikini, and a friend a size 10/12 (no clue her weight) who is confident and looks great...has it in all the right places...LOL
    I just thinks it depends and of course your comfort level
    I think if u are uncofmy people will sense that

    Even at my heaviest, I looked worse in a one piece than in a bikini. Most one piece suits just make me one lumpy blob, no matter what I weigh.

    I wore a bikini last summer when I had hit my goal weight and was almost satisfied with how I looked. I have to get back there again before I attempt it this summer.

    As soon as I was big enough to fill out a bikini top, which unfortunately wasn't until I was about 17 lol. That's all I ever wear. I find one pieces fit me funny and I just hate tankinis.

    Just got a new one for this year and I look fierce! But, then again so do hippos. If anyone makes a comment, I'll sit on them.

    I consider them very often, but I don't think I'll be wearing one.

    I'm sure your back looks great too :) You are at a good weight!! But you should wear whatever you are most comfortable in :) Some women love one pieces, has nothing to do with their weight, just their preference. I don't think I'll ever wear a bikini, no matter how small I get, I'm just shy person I guess.

    I've always worn a bikini, even at my highest weight (156ish). I was just really insecure about my bottom half.

    Funnily enough, I wore a bikini (a tiny one!) this past week and wasn't insecure at all. It felt awesome!

    I wore then when I was younger (25 and under?) and about a size 2-4, but I had completely flat abs then. :o

    I am now a size 2-4 again (possibly a 6 in some clothing), but I wouldn't even begin to consider a bikini. I think I am WAY too fat/flabby to wear one. I also think I'm too old. :o I know people older than me totally rock them, but I think *I* am too old. And fat/flabby.

    I wore one at 150 size 9/11.
    I felt fatter in a once piece, and silly in a tank top and shorts! lol

    It's all about confidence! Or at least no shame. :P

    I've worn a tankini ever since I started picking out my swimsuits. I bought my first bikini top 2 days ago; I bought one that I should be able to wear by the end of summer (fingers crossed) and one that is teensy tiny that I hope to wear by next summer.

    I've always been too big for one, now, I kind of don't really care. When I feel confident enough, I will sport it!

    I wish we could bring this style back.
    Than maybe I wouldn't avoid the pool.
