Response to: does anyone end up in bikini...



Recommended Posts

So awhile ago I saw a post saying: does anyone end up in a bikini. (I couldn't find it for some reason)

I responded on the topic as a preop saying "one day, I will wear one even if it's -40 outside." post-262421-1448257571174_thumb.jpg post-262421-14482575858203_thumb.jpgI live in Minnesota so yes that's a thing.

Well today, it was 20 degrees.

And I put on a bikini.

And I felt so good about it ;)

Is it where I want to be, no. But it's progress and I can't wait for the summer to rock this!

@@LoseItKacy - rock it girlfriend!

I am 52 and NO, even on a hot day here in FL, I will not take a picture in a bikini :D

I may wear one under a t-shirt this summer and hop in the pool - minus the t-shirt - but NO pics!

Probably not for me at age 64. But time and more loss may surprise me! Looking good girl.

It's funny you mention that. I hate my chest. I went from a DDD to a B or a C I've been so self conscious about it since I've been losing weight. I've lost 61 pounds. 39 of that as a post op in 8 weeks.... I feel like 20 of it was boob. I think the swim suit makes them look better than what they really are lol but I would rather lose my boobs than battle obesity and my mom had breast cancer so I can't complain. :) thank you all

Congratulations you are amazing, I recently posted some pics on FB for my friends, I started in January @ 388lbs and on my surgery date June 10th I was @ 342.2, today 5 months out I am @ 269lbs, I was a size 60w and the last time I bought scrubs I was at 52w, I was shocked last Wednesday when I had to go with a size 48w pant, I told my friends to excuse my pic but I wasn't going to try to hold my stomach in or hide anything, while I am proud and continue my weight loss I also never want to forget to be humble, but your pic is truly amazing and believe it or not it's people like you that make me wanna keep going, fortunately you will never see me in a bikini lol, but I want to take a pic in swim trunks when I hit 200lbs, keep going.......

Today, because I saw this post, I too put on a bikini! Then the strangest thing happened - my wife walked in and said "what the hell are you doing?", I'm guessing the bikini didn't fit yet!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
