Bikini Body - is this too fat for a bikini?

Why does she have such proportionally small arms? did the ones that didn't win have bingo wings?

I wouldn't have worn a bikini when I was that size (am bigger now) but don't think I would have batted an eyelid at some one else doing it, I am just ultra paranoid and think I look like a beached whale in any swimming atire.

I don't think she's too big for a bikini, but one which fitted would have been a good idea. I don't think what she's wearing here does her any favours. She's been discussed here before, and my opinion really remains the same - she's not too BIG to show that flesh, she's too FLABBY.

my personal opinion is wear a bikini whatever size you are as long as your tummy and thighs don't wobble when you walk. i reckon hers would.

I'm about the same weight as you and am 5ft 4-5ish and I wore bikinis when I went away a couple of weeks ago.

I think I look better in a bikini than a swimsuit. I wear an underwired top and high waisted briefs.

I think if that girl wore a well fitting bikini rather than the one she has on it would look a load better. If you are confident enough to wear one then go for it, I say.

Can that happen (someone be bigger, but be toned) I have always got told that it didn't matter how many sit ups (etc) you do, if you have fat over the muscle, then you can't tell the muscle is toned?

i have to say i've not made a huge study on this but i do know people sized 16 who don't wobble noticably in a bikini. not me. i'd wobble a lot.

I have an underwired bikini top and high waisted bottoms and matching shorts! They actually fit better than my normal underwear!?

When your in the pool/sea - no one sees! I don't parade around in my bikini, just lay down and sunbath, overwise I've got my shirt thing on!

Wear a bikini if you feel comfortable in one just make sure it fits. Ignore the size lable and also go for mix and match pieces.

What the lobster says. If it is a bikini to suit your shape and in the right size it should look grand and feel comfortable. I've worn a bikini on holiday loads and find it helps to think "after this week I'll never see any of these people again or them me" so I don't feel bad ?

I agree with the BIG vs FLABBY. I'm a size 10, eight and a half stoner, but with a post baby gut and wobbly saddlebag thighs. My best mate is a size 16 swimmer and 10k'er. It's pretty obvious who looks better in a bikini...
