    Ouch, that looks sore. It will probably get itchy in a couple of days too. A little aloe vera may help sooth it.

    If you can remember to keep applying sun block next time.

    Cheers, h.
    And congrats on getting out there.

    I bet you rocked that bikini! I'm not brave enough to wear one yet. I bet that sunburn is both annoying and something you're proud of!

    Oooouuuch! The amazing part is that you don't even look the slightest bit red anywhere else.

    But you are so right about the people looking.... everyone looking. They aren't. As long as you jump in that suit with confidence that is what people are much more likely to notice.

    And you should be excited, you are rocking your 2nd bikini!

    Be careful though, I started with 2 because I hated sitting around with a soggy bottom, and have ended up with 7 or 8 of them. They are addictive.

    Your pinked tummy has recovered well.

    Cheers, h.

    Nice! The first time I lose weight, I tried on a bikini, and my body looked fine but I felt quite exposed. I think I will have to try a tankini or similar this time.

    Most tankinis lack support, in my recent experience. I went swimsuit shopping 2 weeks ago for a vacation (which was amazing by the way), and I usually go for a one piece because that's what I'm used to. Saw a cute tankini and thought why not wear something different this year, and was very disappointed when none of the ones I tried on were supportive. Then again, I'm very busty, so they may work for someone smaller. I don't like bikinis because it makes me feel like I'm wearing underwear. I'm comfortable with my body and had no problems wearing a swimsuit as a lumpy 300+ pound person, but I'm not comfortable with things that are more revealing than I'm used to.
