would you/could you wear a bikini??



Recommended Posts

I doubt even if I get to goal I could wear a bikini unless I get some major reconstructive surgery... but I'm only 31! I might be able to swing it for a few more years!

What about you??:smile:

Going to Spain in 10 days so in the meantime I've got myself some tankinis. :thumbup:

Yep, for sure, at 41.

Look, I dont look "perfect". You can tell I've had a couple of babies and lost a fair bit of weight. I'm not the most gorgeous bod on the beach. But nobody has puked yet either.

But a bikini actually is more slimming on me than a one piece because I'm a bit long legged/short bodied and the break in the middle and expanse of skin balances me out and it makes my boobs look a LOT better too.

But I cant just buy any bikini. It needs to be one cut for a "fuller" figure (at size 10, go figure). But definitely no triangle tops/string sides, ugh.

Heck yeah!!!!!! If I were at my goal and got into one, I would be so happy you couldn't get it off me. I would even wear it to the grocery store in winter!!!!!:thumbup:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
