With the Memorial Day, Bathing Suit challenge well under way, I got in the mood for some bathing suit shopping. J Crew was having an awesome sale, and I took full advantage of it! I ordered 2 different bathing suits, with one of them having 2 interchangeable bottoms I can wear. The teal one is a Size 14, and made for D cups, and the olive one the top is an XL made for D cups, and the bottoms are a L. I love both of these suits, and my only disappointment is with the olive one's support in the boob area. I probably have the saggiest, lowest boobies EVER....it's so sad! I definitely will look into have a lift after we have babies!
The next pictures are a first for me....I've never posted any tummy shots of myself, but since Nicole did it earlier in the week, I decided what the hell! Now brace yourself my tummy looks nothing like Nicoles...this is what happens when you do not use any scar treatment! Don't get me wrong, it doesn't really bother me too much. I just tell myself the scars represent who I am, and where I have been. They are a constant reminder of how far I have come and how proud I am of myself and my decision.
I posted earlier in the week about my new scale, and how I was excited/nervous for it. Well let me tell you, I LOVE IT! The numbers keep dropping EVERY DAY! When I got it on Sunday I weighed 195, today I proudly stepped on and saw 189!! OMG can you believe it? I'm officially in the 180's!!! This also means just 1 more pound and I hit 60 pounds lost! AHHHHH! I love my band!
I hope everyone is having a fantastic week, today is my Friday since I have tomorrow off for Good Friday. Rick and I are heading to my parents home in Maine for the weekend to spend Easter with them. It's supposed to be gorgeous and in the 70's! wahooo! We have been getting a TON of rain here in mass. the last few days, my street is completely flooded, but thank god no damage to our cars or home. Here is a pic of my street:
I love the suits!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm glad your house and cars weren't messed up in the flood.
Congrats on your progress! You look super cute in the bathing suits! I love the olive one! My swimsuit has the same style top. I love them! Keep up the great job.
ReplyDeleteYou mention sagging boobs...and I've been meaning to a post on my blog about boobs, but haven't got around to it. One morning last week I woke up and I swear someone must have done something to my girls while I was sleeping...like totally deflated them somehow! It seriously happened overnight for me. WTF?!!
I too want to have babies and then get all the extra skin removed and have a boob job too! I've always had small boobs for someone so large (B cup), and now the girls are getting even smaller! :o(
WOW!! You look fantastic! Oh to be 24 and have skin that bounces back! lol!
ReplyDeleteI am in love with your star tattoooo! I have one on my foot and one on my back and have been thinking about how I was to spice the one on my back up...hmmm...yes.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the suits are cute and good for you for posting them. I have the saggy boobies too! Damn bandeau tops! But the cut of the top with the olive suit is actually really flattering on you.
xoxo
Cute suits and you look great!!! Your street looks more like a stream LOL! Hope the great weather dries everything out!
ReplyDeleteLove the suits!! you need to call, when I bought that suit last year it came with a strap! That's it I am going to buy that scale!!
ReplyDeleteI love the olive suit!! You are looking fab. I hope you enjoy your easter weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the suits and you look amazing. So glad to hear your home and car have not been damaged in all this rain. My heart goes out to everybody back east right now.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 180s, girl! The suits look great, you're going to have so much fun in them this summer.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you haven't had flooding damage. This winter has been such a doozy.
I lOVE those swim suits! You are SO CUTE!!!!! You look GREAT!
ReplyDeleteyou look adorable. and are much braver than me... maybe i'll post my tummy pics too?
ReplyDeletei have the olive one in pink - it came with a removable strap right? that'll give it more support!
You look great in those suits and go you being brave about the tummy pics...I alas am still not brave enough..
ReplyDeleteI love your scales....maybe we can share them h a:-)
You look great! I love those suits and your scars really aren't bad at all. They look just about like mine do. I do want to start putting some Bio-Oil or something on them to help them clear up a little bit though.
ReplyDeleteCan I have your scale please? Way to go for you to come out of the gates swinging for the swimsuit challenge!!!
The suits are gorgeous - but more importantly; CONGRATS on 60 lbs gone!
ReplyDeleteEven though I don't know you I'm SO PROUD OF YOU. You can clearly see all the hard work you have put in. I hope that my jounery is as successful as yours. Enjoy your holiday weekend!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, Kristen! You look wonderful, thanks for posting these, brave one! I believe that I may beat you for the "Saggiest Boobie Award" (if there were such a thing)! Mine are DD and down to my ankles ;)
ReplyDeleteHave fund in Waterville!
You look great! I love that J Crew bandeau, I have a couple!
ReplyDeleteI hate to tell you, but I think the problem with the boobs is you got a size too big. Seriously. You need a smaller size! I bought one this year and had to get an L regular, not D cup --it fits WAY better - holds the girls right in. Put the strap on, that helps too.
Your undie shots are amazing - you look really great. Thanks for the pics!
And 180s!!!!! Awesome. Welcome to the 180s club! (Not for long though, we hope...)
ReplyDeleteAwww you are ooking so cute it's off the charts! I wish my tummy looked like yours!
ReplyDeleteMy boobs are a horror show, too. Don't worry.
And your thighs! Oh your thighs, I would LOVE my thighs to look like that!
I love the light blue one! You look great!! And super happy/proud of your hard work..
ReplyDeleteYou Look AMAZING! Congrats on the loss and I'm so happy your cars and house are ok! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteWow! You are looking excellent and I love the teal...
ReplyDeleteYou look great! I'm so jealous of you ladies that actually have a curve in your waist. I'm a straight up and down and no hips gal. ARgggh.
ReplyDeleteCUTE, cute suits too!
