    I want to wear a bikini just to see what it's like. My husband actually perfers one piece suits on women. I have a retro pin-up style one ths year and he thinks it's super hot. The last/only time I wore a bikini was the summer after 7th grade. This is the one I want to wear, I love this look. I have stretch marks from two big babies, ha.

    I don't like "advertising" what isn't for sale :)
    So get a burqa. What a disgusting and insulting thing to say.

    I agree. Unfortunately, some people like to get on their high horse when it comes to modesty.

    Live and let live.

    A 26 year old should not be thinking, "I'm no spring chicken anymore"! That's just not right. You are still a spring chicken. As for the bikini, you're right. It's all about confidence and self-esteem. It's about being comfortable in your own skin. We all have different levels of comfort.

    BTW, I think you're beautiful. If I didn't, I wouldn't tell you that every morning! LOL

    LOL, thanks.. and your right, i shouldnt say things like "i'm no spring chicken" ;)

    I am not trying to get into a bikini...I am trying to get out of the plus size section and comfortably into some regular sizes. Of course I want to be healthy, but I'm interested in my appearance also.

    That doesn't have the main goal, to rock a 2 piece bikini. Everywhere I go all I hear is "I can't wait to get to my goal weight, so i can be bikini ready". Guess my main goal is more focused on health (looks are good too). Even when I get to my goal weight , after having my daughter, I look like I got attacked by a cougar. But I've accepted it, and I don't want anyone having to see all of that. Now, this isn't to say that if you have stretch marks (ladies) that you can't pull a 2 piece off. If you can and want to, more power to ya. Hell, that just shows you have more confidence than I do. But I think i've just accepted that I'm a mother, my body has its flaws and I'm no spring chicken any more, so time for me to chill in my mama one piece. Any other ladies out there feel the same??

    I rock a bikini now, lol. Fat or not, I love me and I love a good tan. My goal is to be healthier whether it causes weight loss along the way or not.

    I have absolutely NO desire to rock a 2 piece bathing suit! Hell, at this point I'm still not willing to get into a 1 piece and I'm a lot smaller now than I was the last time I wore one!
    I just want to be happy in my own skin and to rock some cute clothes!

    One of my goals is to look great in ALL of my clothes - if that happens to include a bikini, super! If I'm rocking a one-piece then that's awesome, too :)

    This body will not rock a bikini. I plan on rocking a tankini where all my bits are covered!

    No bikini for me thanks.

    I want to be lean, strong and bad *kitten*.

    I want to climb mountains without passing out or on.

    I want to be able to run and play with my kids and not get tired.

    I want to be fit enough for hours and hours of fun with hubs.

    A bikini isn't even on my radar.

    I want performance.

    Right there with yer.....although I have the body worthy of a bikini, I actually am still too self conscious to wear one. Nevermind the fact that over here in England, our Summer lasts for about 2-3weeks and quite frankly is not bikini worthy weather. It has to be mid 20's Celcius before I even contemplate stripping down to shorts let alone a bikini. On vacations, its different as no-one knows you so you don't feel as self conscious. But in answer to your question, bikini wearing has never been my goal. I just simply want to be healthier.

    i guess i am one of those ladies who want to be bikini ready. its not so much about flashing your bits around as someone said, but more to have that confidence that i feel comfortable enough in my own skin. (Not to say you are uncomfortable with yourself if you're not wearing a two piece). I personally find bikinis more flattering on me, one pieces make me feel like a stumpy square (dont have a very defined waist and i have short legs).
    as for the stretch marks, who cares??? my skin expanded coz my beautiful LO was there. I aint ashamed of them.. if other people are offended by my scars, they are free to look the other way.

    that being said, im not losing my weight so i can wear a bikini and thats it, of course the main goal is to be healthier, have more staminia but hey some of us wanna be in a bikini while being healthy.
