    I'd wear a bikini if I had the body for one!

    To lazy to sort out my wobbly bits!

    Go for it :)

    I'll swap your stretch marks for my horrible varicose vein if you want?

  • If you have the requisite number of arms and legs and everything is in good working order then you have the perfect body , irrespective of stretch marks, scars, varicose veins, whatever.

    So don't be shy and, as others have said, you will see some sights……..Once you have a nice tan you will feel wonderful.

    In the meantime you can use Bio oil to speed up the fading process of stretch marks and scars.

    Enjoy your holiday.
  • I have a big burnt mark on my left leg but I still wear bikini. I sometimes get conscious at first but after a while the feeling just disappears and I tend to forget. The mark is slowly fading now though.

    I've put on a fair bit of weight over the last two years (trying to get to grips with it now) we've been away abroad for the last two summers - I always start off covering up with swimshorts, wrapping myself in a sarong etc. Takes me less than 24hours to let it all hang out and then I stop caring what anyone else may think. Their opinion is theirs to keep!
