Bikini comparison from a year.... Want opinions please!

Ralstonk2

From last year to now, massive difference! From June to today, not a big difference. Slightly slimmer. You definitely do not look like you're backsliding at all.

Remember, progress slows the closer you get to a healthy weight. To keep progress going, you're going to have to find time to workout (both cardio and weight training), but it sounds like you're already trying to do that from the talk about the gym membership.

Yes, I am very happy with myself with the pic from last August to today. That is obviously a huge difference. And to think I thought I was doing good last August enough to buy that. That was the first bikini I had bought since I was like 14. But I started out a lot heavier than that picture in August too but no pictures from then that are in bathing suits. I avoided those at all cost!

I did say I could take the bad.... I read your first line and was like "Wow." LOL I know from last year to now there's a huge difference. But I was just wondering from June to now. LOL I've gone from a size 16 pants to a size 6. And some 8's. But thank you!!! :-)

Definitely see a difference! If you have done this all on diet, I think once you starting exercising (cardio and strength training), you will tone up quick. P.S... I have that same bikini.

Sweet! It's cute. First one I've bought since I was 14. LOL Yes, all on a diet. I'm going to be doing 30DS and my treadmill and free weights randomly. Think that will help?

What is 30DS? A mix of cardio and weights is great. Cardio burns calories and strengthens your cardiovascular/pulmonary systems. In the long run, you will be working towards preventing chronic diseases that are common with unhealthy lifestyle choices. Strength training also helps in burning calories, because the more lean muscle you have, the more calories you burn. Weight bearing exercises are also good for keeping your bones strong, which is especially important for women. With the free weights, just watch your form to prevent injury.

From June to now you can see difference in both bust line and hips. Your top looks almost loose on you and the bottoms don't have the same (if any) indents at hips. Stomach appears to be about the same but probably isn't. You don't show a profile and that would really indicate a difference in the stomach. However, if you lost in the bust and the hips as the pictures seem to show then you would have lost some on the stomach too.

Nice work.

Yes, your waist and tummy look great! I can most certainly tell a difference!

Big difference. You lost a lot in the belly, and some in the boobs. Are you taking measurements?

I'm going to show my blondeness here - but how can your fit into the same bikini?

Bump - I'm still confused as to how one can drop 8 sizes and your swimsuit doesn't fall off. No offense.

Face is thinner, better waist definition, smaller tummy and smaller hips. Your arms are much more toned. Definitely see progress. Keep up the good work.

When I started my weight loss journey I was a size 16. That was January 2011. I believe when I bought that bikini I was wearing a 12 which was last August when I bought it. And actually they are pretty baggy in the butt part. But I believe if my butt gets firm and perks up a little it may be okay but next summer I will definitely need a new one!

definitely a difference!!

Well there's 4 pictures. 2 of which are very similar. One was taken in June and the other yesterday. Yes they are close. Very. I honestly didn't see a different which is why I posted to see if anyone else saw one. Because we almost never see a difference but we need others to see a difference.

I can definitely see it in your hips, tummy, boobies, and face great job! Once you incorporate exercise especially weights you will most definitely see a huge difference!!!
