Good for you!  I hope to go swimming sometime this summer, but no bikini for me!  My legs are so wrinkly with loose skin, but I'll not let that stop me.

Some people might not support my WLS decision. 
Those people remind me of slinkys. Not good for much but it would would bring a smile to my face if someone pushed them down the stairs.

wooHOO, you go Mary!!!

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.

how fun you little mermaid! post a pic. My bathing suit still has to have a skirt due to saggy thigh skin. But at least its a slim size. Swimming is so fun. Diane

ooooh, I don't know about a pic

We are house sitting for a neighbor and I snuck over there by myself this afternoon for a swim. Of course, as luck would have it, I saw, not one, not two, but three of my other neighbors as I was crossing the street in my top and skirt..

My legs aren't the prettiest, but I have a nice stomach (if I do say so myself) I figured, unless I wore an ankle length swim suit, my legs would look the same in a one piece or a bikini, LOL!

Congratulations!!
A bikini!!
I swim, but I had to find a swimsuit with boylegs or whatever they are called to go down over some of that flabby thigh skin on the thighs. Had to find one that comes up under the armpit area pretty well too, cause of the flab that hangs over the bra line, but other than that, it's not half bad. I never post pics because I don't know how to get my camera to take ones that have the right resolution for this site. They won't upload.

 


Wishing you all the best, Carol       
count your blessings!!!!   At goal weight.   I am 5 ft 3.

That is totally awesome. I am very jealous of the nice tummy - mine is a mass of wrinkled skin. But, I did buy a tankini & it shows off the new body quite well (if I do say so myself)!

Congratulations to you!
