bathing suit pics. can't believe i'm doing this.
I'm not ready to show off the bikini body, but if these pics are helpful to anyone...
I've lost about 120lbs. I'm a regular walker/runner.
and i hate my thighs, except that no matter what they look like, they DO help me run!

The suit looks good. Good for you and damn the thighs (hmmm mine look about the same)! Congrats on having the courage to post pics, it does help to realize we are not alone in this, not a one of us is perfect (even those who have not had wls) and yet we are all smashingly gorgeous in our own rights. Rock on sista!

The white dog is Bella, my mom's shih tzu. I guess that makes her my sister and PJs aunt. ;) They play well together!

The suit looks awesome on you. As for the thighs, they are what they are. I heard the excess skin of my thighs flapping for the first time yesterday on my walk. I guess I will have to wear longer shorts when walking now, LOL. You are definitely an inspiration!
50 lbs lost pre-op-the rest is post op.
The best changes often start as a single, simple thought. Think big, and discover the ways to make your dreams real. CheryL
Nice to see you posting, Linda!!
My friends have turned my belly into a party trick where we pull endless amounts of skin out of my pants. LOL

SUE! Good for you! I was at about the same starting weight, and hope to get to about the same healthy weight as you.. and my thighs are already starting to do that, I knew they would, my thighs and bum are where I've always carried most of my weight, but I don't care! Yeah, I wish my skin were tight, but I am so proud of my body and what it's able to do now. I feel like if women can wear their c-section scars or stretch marks from pg with pride, as they should, I am going to wear my skin with pride b/c I'm working hard for that skin to sag, and it'll remind me where I was. I'm 33, I don't need to look like I'm 17.. I just need to be able to move, and I finally can!
Thanks for posting your pics. They DO help. ;-)
