Bikini body...

Here is the Valley of Sun (or the greater Phoenix area) it's bathing suit season.  We are in the high 90's, eeking into triple digits this week.  I love to swim and do so every year!  I don't have a pool, so I use one of the public pools here in Mesa (which are really nice).  They open in two weeks and I still have about 10 lbs left over from my back/knee injury. 

For me, my plan is simple and direct...I'm upping my cardio from intense to extreme, upping my protein as well ( have been slacking off in this area) and limiting my complex carbs to mornings only.

I was hoping to have my tummy tuck and be sporting my bikini body by now, but my plans have been postponed (again****il September.  I tried my suit from last year on and ........  So until then, I have a lot of work to do.  So ...(guys this includes  you)...

Are you bath-suit ready?

I bought a nice suit and a little swim skirt to canaflauge the thighs.  WL has nothing to do with it for me.  I have a good suit every year no matter what I weigh.

I love that.  I think it is so important to feel good about whatever you're wearing, no matter what weight you are!!  Love it.  My suit has a little camouflage element too across the tummy area.  I was hoping not to need that this year but...oh well...

Even with all my work out I still have thunder thighs! Wouldnt show them to the world even if they paid me! I have lost the majority of my weight on the upper part of my body, I struggle with lower  =(  I think Im more self cautious about my body image now, then before I had WLS.
Im far from bikini body!  Cottage cheese aint cute and LAWD to I have my fair share!

Girl, I use to wear a Brazilian bikini.  I know girl...I just shake my head now.  I still have it.  It's pink with black polka dots! NO lie!  Soooo tiny.  I'm like...."when the hell did I EVER fit all this into none of that?" 

As far as big legs, I think big legs are sexy!  I really, really do.  I have bird legs, at least from the knee down!   I can relate to the cottage cheese thighs though.  I have looked into the velashape procedure for cellulite.  My doctor does it in her office and is giving me a free session when I hit goal. I'm equally as self examining ( I won't say self conscience, because everyone is self conscience) now than I was before surgery.  I am very aware of my body and what it really looks like (verses the fantasy of what we THINK it looks like, either good or bad) and trust me, I am in serious need of more plastics!!!  I feel bad for the innocent children that will be permanently emotionally scared from having to witness the carnage of me in a bathing suit!!  Sad.  So, so sad...

Yes I am bathing suit ready.    If bathing suit ready means you have a big ass gut hanging over your trunks, and ass hanging out the back.    Then hell yeah i'm ready and i'm going to wear my suit with pride DAMIT.
