Fat Girl Gives Herself Two Years to Get Into a Bikini--Waiting for Word from Oprah
About Me
- Thirtini
- I'm about to be 28, need to lose 100 pounds (again), and have decided to wear a bikini to the beach for my 30th birthday. More than enough time, yeah? Giddy up.
Why a Bikini, Thirtini?
Because to me, the wearing of the bikini (a real one, not the tankini or anything like that) is indicative of everything I'm aiming for here. I'm not saying we ALL need to wear bikinis, or look picture pefect in them (god knows I won't, even if I hit goal in time). But I've never worn one in my life, and always yearned for the things I associated with them:
Confidence - no matter your size, it takes guts and confidence to wear a bikini. It's like walking around in a bra and panties, for goodness sake!
Health - I'm a fat acceptance advocate, and I know that thin does not always equal healthy. But I also feel that looking fit and toned and feeling healthy and great in a bikini would be awesome, for me. Again, this is about me and my goals, I'm not passing judgement on anyone else.
Cuteness!!! - Yes, I am still cute at any weight. I'm actually kind of full of myself when it comes to my looks at times. But I don't think at my current weight I'd look cute in a bikini. And it bums me out, becuase I think bikinis are the cutest and that girls look cute in them. : ) And who doesn't want to be a cute-looking chick on a beach for her thirtieth birthday?
