New NSV - I wore a 2 piece in PUBLIC.

First off, I would have PAID to see the looks on those faces after you said that to them!

Second, I'm so glad you stood up for yourself!!

Third, you look great and keep on rockin' the new body that you're building!

fuhrmeister

you are awesome! :drinker: Thank you for posting this story and your picture. Congrats on your 70lbs lost and good luck reaching your final goal. :happy:

Congrats ont the weight you have lost, and the confidence you have gained. Don't let anyone take that away from you. you look pretty damn good in that bikini, and I'm damn proud of you for speaking up and putting those girls in their place.

Love this quote.

"Judging a person does not define who they are, it defines who you are."

You look a lot better in your bikini than many of the people I see at our local pool. I'm glad that you aren't letting those two get you down. I tend to wear tighter clothes, mainly because I am continuing to lose weight and If I don't start wearing clothes as soon as they can be buttoned/zipped, then they will probably be too big and baggy before I get my 'money's worth' out of the clothes! Keep up the good work!!

ha! good for you! I wear a tankini and feel fine about it but I too have learned something. Those women who 'appear' to look so much more attractive but have to tear down every other woman they see- and they're esp cruel to ppl with already low self esteem but THEY'RE the ones who are ugly on the inside. Anybody who goes for ppl who are only spitshined on the outside isn't someone I want in my life anyway
You Rock

Love it!!! So happy you said something to those women. PPl always step out of line and never know someone's story. Not that it even matters, because as long as YOU are confident and happy with yourself, then they should mind their own business anyway. Good for you !!! :flowerforyou:

These were just two random strangers in the store at the dock. They never said another word to me. Then again - I didn't give them a chance to. I said my peace, and walked away. In fact, I didn't tell anyone what had happened until we were back out on the lake. Matt - my husband - said something about the icecream (he was shocked to see me eating it) - and I made a joke about it by saying that 2 girls had called me fat, so I decided to eat my feelings.

You look fantastic! BE PROUD OF WHAT YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED! You are beautiful.

zealousmissjj_wechange

YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL! It's a nice two piece too!! I have so much respect for you wearing that for the first time in a long time! You've set your insecurity aside and just went for it. BRAVOOO BRAVOOO!!

Again: YOU LOOK GREAT!

Mpowered1

Thank you for posting this. Many times, I've had people say ugly things to me, and it literally ruined my day. Bravo for having the nerve to stand up and call them out for being jerks. Anyone can be pretty on the outside, but they're obviously ugly on the inside. Good for you!!

shiseido_faerie

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!!
Congratulations on your weight loss and on finding your voice to stand up for yourself!!
You rocked that bikini!!

KristysLosing

Good for you! I look forward to even being able to look at a 2 piece! lol And super good for you for calling them out on it!!!!!

Jules221

I am proud of you and have to say GOOD FOR YOU!!!! I am looking at buying a bikini as well, but just have not done it yet. I would like to lose another 5 or so pounds before I do. Maybe I will buy it just so it is there staring at me in the face for motivation.

sailorsiren13

I have had the same issue with other women and I have been both super skinny and very overweight. I am at what my body considers a maintenance weight (been this weight for 4 years) and now at this weight i'm running a 5k in a bikini for my birthday! I don't care what anyone thinks of me I have earned my tiger stripes (stretch marks) and i'm being healthy! so you go girl rock that bikini you earned it!

weebroonie

Well I think you look great ;-) well done

BexleyGirl

Fabulous attitude and you look really nice in that suit.....keep rocking it!

chezileigh

Your skin is gorgeous and your come back to those nasty you know whats was ace. Think maybe they need to get laid or something if their main concern is what somebody they don't even know is wearing.

Only one question though, what the hell is an NSV?

rchupka87

LOL - a Non Scale Victory....

chezileigh

Yep, it was definitely one of those then!

pittskaa
