Im so pail. And I was going to wait till I got down till atleast 140 to go get a spray tan. Ive been in tanning beds before, but I never went enough to get dark. I know some places have it where they have those things where it spays you or you can get someone to do it. I would use that booth thing. But is this embarrising. Ive lost almost 30 pounds and you cant tell what so ever I look the same as I was at 215, but I can see some of my collar bone, and above my knee I lost weight. WEIRD!!! But I was thinking maybe if I was tan I would look a little bit slimmer. Plus im just in the mood to do something. I went to go get my nails and feet done yesterday, im going to get my hair done later today. I just feel like it!!!
NeverMind!!! Im going!!! Right now I just got in that mood that I can still do this. Who cares if Im fat. Atleast Ill be fat and tan. SO what the heck, Im doing it!!!
Personally, I think it's GREAT that you are treating yourself! Congrats on losing 30 lbs. That is a big accomplishment! I bet you felt great getting your nails and hair done.
I say go for the tan too! Wht the heck? It's summer! Plus a tan always makes you look a little slimmer, doesn't it? I've always wanted a spray tan, but I wasn't sure if I would turn out orange-y. My mom has had a melanoma, so I'm real careful in the real sun now, but I do use fake tan lotiions. A spray tan would be nice though.
I started going to the pool this year, never would in the past few years because I felt I was too fat. I woke up though and decided that I was NOT going to not do things because I feel really fat. So I bought a cute two piece tankini, kind of like a tank top with a little skirt and I love it! I don't care what people think. I see big people going all the time so what the heck!
yeah it is said that a tan covers up all those lumps and bumps..... great british wether tho ey? i just stick to my usual dove fake tan lol have fun ! xx
I had a friend who was quite a bit over 300 lbs and over 6' tall, and she always looked like a plus-size model, even at her size because she had beautiful long blonde hair, acrylic nails, and a deep tan, which she didn't get from laying half nekkid in the yard.
It answered one questoin in my mind. I always wanted to go to a tanning bed, but I was mortified that I'd be told I wouldn't fit in the tanning bed.
Thank you!!!
Well I just got back.. And what do you know. I wasnt the biggest girl there. I feel amazing though because im a tad bit darker, but the guy there sayed that it takes about 4-6 hours to get the results. So hey. Atleast I did it. Oh man I hate those mirrors there when you have to take of your clothes. Now those are horrible!!
They say you look thinner with a tan, why don't you try that Neutrogena spray on stuff, it doesn't cost a fortune and it works. But do it outside when no one is looking because of the smell. I feel healthier with a bit of color...
A tan is a tan. It doesn't discriminate on the size of the area it has to cover. That said, I never could see myself squeezing my 250+ frame into a pancake machine. But then, never having tanned at that time, I didn't know they made stand up booths. I only knew of tanning BEDS...that would've squished my belly flat. Hmmm, maybe I SHOULD have gone tanning then.
I should get a spray tan. How did they do it? I've never gone. Did it get orange at all? I'm a red head and tans don't come easy to me. I've been using lotions but something that would look dark and good for longer would be so nice. I feel much better with a tan too.
I went where there is a booth that you go in, and this voice walks you through the steps. It was a little like dance dance resoultion You have to move your feet from 1 and 3, to 2 and 4, to 3 and 1, to 4 to 2. Its really easy though. The only part that gat orange was my feet because I didnt put enough cream on it. They have cream that you need to put on your hands and feet, and toes and fingers so they will blend and wont look orange. But I just didnt put enough. But overall I love it, Im tan and I feel better. I will keep on going there.
Amazing how a tan, a mani and pedi, and a new hair do Can make a women feel better!!!
Can FAT people TAN??
And WTG on the 30 pounds!
