    What are you doing to get bikini-ready? Lots of walking with my little guy now that it's nicer out, eat nutritious and delicious foods, and a random assortment of all the cardio videos collecting dust :)
    Do you have your bikini picked out yet?! I have one that I would love to fit into that I already own! I think I last wore it on my honeymoon which was only about 6 lbs lighter then now - however it didn't look very nice then haha

    I have several bikinis that haven't worn in 3 years. However, if I reach goal - I think I deserve a new one. :)
