Bikini on Labor Day weekend??

Post by sandigirl06 »

OK, guys, so I have worked soooo hard all summer using all of the great advice here, training and keeping diet pretty straight! So far this summer I have sported a tankini suit that I did not like very much. Labor Day is next weekend and I am thinking about wearing a bikini :shock: . However, I don't want to embarass husband or kids. LOL. I have posted some bikini pics in profile. I still cannot figure out how to get them them in this forum so sorry to make you have to go there to veiw. What do you all think? Should I go for it? I know I still have some work to do around the but I am so anxious to show off the progress I have made so far. :D. The pics are not in order so you will have to forage around gallery for them. lol. Thx, for your input and all of the great information which I have used to get me where I am so far! xoxo

You are a youthfully mature Lady. You are 44, looking 35. With your body shape and fantastic facial appearance, for a Lady of your age, you have nothing to worry about. You look amazing, and you deserve to feel as good as that. You've worked hard for it.

Heck you'll probably do stuff in the future to embarrass them anyway, like dance badly, or make goofy remarks infront of their friends or lovers, so don't sweat it. You're not going to embarrass them looking like you do, so be proud of it, and let people see it.

Trust me, you'll be fine. You are a healthy, glowing Lady in very good condition. Embrace it and live it, because you CAN be prioud of it :).

Thank you once again, Boss Man for those encouraging and complimentary words! Yes, I do embarrass kids by singing and "jamming" to the car radio and saying words like "wowee". :roll: (the icon is daughter's reaction) Hahaha. I am the coolest, dorkiest mom around! Well, I have worked so hard for the last 3 months getting up at 4:30 a.m. to go to the gym and preparing separate meals for myself. husband and I have both made a lifestyle change together. He is also looking and feeling great! As I said I am hoping to be in ideal shape by next summer. I am down to 120 lbs from 130 lbs. That does not seem like a lot of weight lost but I have gained lots of muscle and lost lots of fat. I am so much tighter and smaller all over! What a feeling! :D I am doing a full body 3x per week with 2 HIIT days with one long cardio day and one full rest day. full body workout consists of varied lunges and squats, incline chest press, shoulder press, dips, push ups, planx, and low rows. I have just increased dumb bell weights from 15 lbs to 20 lbs but only on the last set as I can only do about 6 reps. Any suggestions welcome!

Well, if you think you will embarrass them than you can just wear it at house! But I agree with bossman and swanso!

Great assets....top and bottom, looking all natural. 5'-120 lbs. You must be tiny. You've lost weight, but retain an extremely feminine figure. Go for it. Hubby will be proud, but may not be able to keep his hands off you...... :wink: Gr8 job.

Judging by the way your hubby has you perched on his lap with his hands on your thigh and butt...he looks pretty pleased to me! With that little grin on his face...like "yeah, she's hot and she's mine!" So go for it girl, you look awesome!

Wow, thanks guys!!! I knew I could count on all of you for a little confidence boost!!! :D I will wear it and keep on working so I can get a stringier one for next summer when I have hopefully lost that last 10 lbs that is sticking to me. Yes, hubby says I look great but of course he is bias. He always says that no matter what as a good hubby should. Haha. Hugs and kisses to all of you for your help and never ending support!! Oh, and Fitover40, yes, I just noticed the hand placement in pic. Such a man!! :twisted: LOL

Hey, Bonnie girl! Thx for noticing progress! Well, still one more day in the weekend. Do you have Labor Day where you are? The weather was not good today so no beach but I did go bicycle trail riding for about 2 hrs with family. I hope I burnt a few cals because after that we went for ice cream and I had a hot fudge sundae. :twisted: I hope you are doing well!
