I'm jealous. You look a heck of a lot smaller at 146 than I do.  Sigh...

Hold your head up and wear the damn bikini.

I think you look fantastic and really dont see an ounce of fat on you. Please stop beating yourself up and making yourself feel bad. You look great! put on that bikini go to the beach and have an awesome time.

it really helps when ppl tell me that.. like my fiance and his friends say that but i mean... i take pictures and see rolls and its gross. my back is nasty. i hate it. i meann i get confidence makes u appear better than not being confident but i just duno

I am almost your height (5ft 4) and weigh less than you do, but yet my stomach does not look as flat and trim as yours.... so jealous!!
Please do not worry about wearing a bikini. You look like one of those fab girls on the beach.

Have fun and eat healthy!
Hi - you really dont need to worry about wearing a bikini. You look really slim.  Dont be so hard on yourself - you should try to relax a bit and have some fun.  If it makes you feel more comfortable, wear a scarf or sarong round your hips, but really really honest - you dont need to hide anything.  Just hit the beach and have a great time. 
need2change28, seriously, what roll? I could not find any on the pics you posted..

Goodness girly.... get that bikini on and have good time.

You have a few curves and not an ouce of fat in sight. ... trust my blokes like curves Waaaaay better than they like stick insects... im 120lbs and trust me when i say i wished i looked as good as you.

go th beach have a good time and flaunt what you have got.

 

Honest guy's opinion - you'd turn my head, and I guarantee others as well!

You look great! You should be confident wearing a bikini. You DO have the body for it but if you keep telling yourself you don't then you're not going to have any fun.

You are being WAY too hard on yourself sweety... so you can't see your hipbones from the outside - a lot of people happen to think that a girl looks better that way. From the way you're talking you'd think you had the 'six-months-pregnant' look going on, but you're perfectly fine. Hold your head high and wear the bikini and quit worrying about it!

OMG, I am sooo jealous - you look incredible in that bikini.

Now, either your scale's wrong or my scale's wrong because I'm also 5'3" and my scale says 126lbs.  And I am a LOT bigger than you.

First I want to tell you that you have a beautiful body, cerainly nothing to be ashamed of. 

Second, I think that you may want to look into talking with a counselor or a psychologist, or maybe even joining a support group for BDD (Body Dismorphic Disorder).  I say this because the way you look to everyone else, and the very conflicting opinion you have about your body sends up red flags for me!  This is a disorder that can take over your life, you should try doing a google search about it and read somethings about it.  If you can see the traits in yourself then I really urge you to get help.  You really have nothing to feel down about you are beautiful.

You definitely aren't fat, so get that out of your head.

But I think I get you because I'm the same way, except I'm not brave enough to show pics of my stomach :). I know my weight is healthy and while I'm slender, I still have soft spots here and there that I want toned and tight. Instead of focusing on losing weight, why don't you just focus on toning? Strengthen your core and do several ab and lower back exercises. With your slim physique, you'll start noticing tighter abs in a week or less even, just do reps everyday. 

Whenever I get a moment, watching TV, between household chores, I bring my mat out and do 3 sets of 12 crunches, the next free moment I find,  I work my obliques, on the next time my lower abs, etc. My point is whenever you have some down time from normal life drop to the floor and work your abs but stop obsessing with weight, you look healthy.

i wouldn't post in here if i couldn't be honest. that bikini top and skirt look awesome on you! seriously!

always remember, no one is going to be harder on you than you are. nobody is going to be zeroing in on what you think are your flaws. they are just gonna see a cute girl at the beach!

wear the bikini and enjoy yourself tomorrow. i'll be sitting here at my desk WISHING i was at the beach :)  

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

That bikini looks so good. Just go wear it and be confident in who you are. Your stomach is awesome, and you don't have a single fat roll on you. Just go out and work it. :O)

I don't know whether you practice some physical activity, but don't be silly, go to the beach, swim a lot and many problems will be solved.

I would try not checking the mirror so often, but better go outside and focus on many nice things. Besides, there's lots more to worry about in this world than  being slightly overweight. (which I'm not saying that you are, au contraire).

First of all......everyone please quit stroking this girls ego!!!! she is in no way fat......and she knows it....if she really thought she was fat she would not be putting pics of herself on her. Look at most people's "pic" it's a flower or thier pet not of thier boobs and flat stomach. It  really is discusting that she is talking so badly about the way she looks when there are REAL women on here that have real issues with there body's and she actually telling them that they must be cows or whale's since her skinny butt is sooooooo fat. My advise go talk to a shirnk and get some confidence along with some selfesteem.

I agree with fussygirl.

Read need2change28's profile.  She is looking for something no one on here can give her.

Need2change28- it is not your body that needs to change, I think you honestly need to see a therapist because from your bio, there is a distorted self perception, desperation, a lot of loathing, and need for validation.  People on here can give you support, but ultimately you should consider a therapist.

I don't really agree with the last two posts.  Yes, the OP probably knows she's not a beluga, or she wouldn't even be considering a bikini...but if you have gained 5 (or 20) pounds since you put on that bikini last, it's natural to be a little self conscious.  And just because she feels self-conscious doesn't mean that she's insinuating that people heavier than her are total lost causes and should just wear burlap sacks to save everyone else the horror of having to look at them.  Being self conscious of your own jiggle does not equate being critical of other people.

Maybe she's looking for a stroke to the ego, but maybe she just wants an honest opinion...and if she can't turn to the other calorie-counting, anonymous masses on the internet, who can she turn to??

To the OP: You look good.  I know in the end, your satisfaction with your body is the most important, but from my perspective, you have curves in all the right places and you look better now than when you were super skinny.

Enjoy the beach!  And, please, don't obsess over the couple of pounds.  You are wasting too much energy on it.  Just be happy with your lovely body...and if you can't *just* be happy, keep telling yourself you're happy until one day you wake up and it's true.

I personally think you look fantastic!

xx
