So I am a little nervous. I recently lost 200 pounds and look good with clothes on but my upper body is not as tight as I want it just yet. I am going to a pool party today and next weekend. In my mind, the people that I know there will be curious to wee what I look like with my shirt off. I am not quite sure if I am ready to show them because my goal was to have it completely tight by August 10th. Advice?

    I say relax and have fun at the pool party. If you feel like taking your shirt off and soaking up the sun/swimming, do it! You lost 200 pounds, that is INCREDIBLE. Trust me people will be impressed, whether you're completely "tight" or not. And even if they weren't, who cares what they think? It's your body and you should feel great about it.

    I would say just go to the pool party and enjoy yourself and have fun,dont worry about others wanting to see what you look like underneath your shirt, if you arent ready yet just let them wonder. You have lost 200 lbs which is an awesome accomplishment.
