BEACH
Just home from the beach where I wore smaller bikinis than my 20something daughters. I also had way more energy than they did and wanted to swim more and stay on the beach more than they did.
I ate like a normal person, fried shrimp, fried fish, raw oysters, and all the sides. I may have gained 3 lbs but it will come off this week.
I love my DS. I love the life it has given me. I love my daughters who have been supportive.

My goal was to wear a size 10. To get to a single digit size (8) was a dream but didn't seem realiistic to me, especially given my history of getting to a size 8 and staying there for a week.
I am now a size 4-6 and work at staying closer to the 4 size. I wear a small bikini bottom and a medium top to push all this boobage into. I don't give a flip about what anyone thinks about how I look. I can remember going to the beach in shorts, unwilling to show my fat. I am so glad those days are gone forever.

Well I have had no plastics so I have skin on arms, tummy and legs but I FIT in a size small bottom and a size medium top and my girls who are dreadfully honest tell me I look fine and better than 3/4 of the mom's on the beach.
I only have one "string" bikini. The rest have just enough on the sides to make me feel comfortable. Finance wants me to get a Brazillian bottom but I have NO ass so I just don't think that will work.
Saw one thong at the beach and she rocked it. If I had her ass I would wear one too.
Wish I could get all my skin removed and a facelift. But I will take what I've got and flaunt it and then go eat whatever the hell I want to eat for lunch!

I love you! Ole thong-butt will probably only have a piece of celery for lunch...heehee....
Speaking of butts....I am only 9 1/2 weeks post op, but my butt was the first thing to go! Disappeared within the first 2 weeks. I wonder why. I've always had the wide flat Irish ass, and never considered it one of my "problem" areas. Just another mystery in this story of my weight loss, I guess.
Go Becky!! :-)
