Why do you Tan?
I read that LC tan's and I'm wondering how many other's tan?
Does tanning help with weight loss?

I tan 4 or 5 times a week because I am getting ready to compete in a show this summer. Once I am done with the show I will slow down. Tanning does not help you lose weight. It does make your muscles look more defined, thats why competitors use body coloring during a show.

Thank's I'm brand new to this. Are you in body building, figure or fitness?
I hope you post your Pic after your show. I'm amazed at how good some people look. Good Luck!

I am in figure. I planning on posting a picture soon of me in pre-show shape and will post another pic post-show. I have been working out seriously and following a semi-strict diet for about 2 years. I weight around 136 now and Ive got about 8 to 10 pounds of body fat to lose to be in contest shape.

Tanning makes me feel better, I live with long cold winter's. I also tan for competitions, I'm in bodybuilding. There is a new spray on tan that is offered in many salon's. I have not tried it myself but know several gals that have. It really has a nice color lasting for 7-10 day's

Tina that would be great if you post your figure pic's. I'm sure you will do well in your show. Just keep on track you will get there.

I tan cause it makes me feel better about myself and i love to be dark

I have tried the spray tan and loved it but my first spray experience was awful because the guy who did it tried touching waay more than he needed to.

I will definately post my pics soon. Thanks for the encouragement!!

LoL I don't do the spray tans...don't have much luck with those. You always have to wait like 3 hrs before showering and stuff like that. I like tanning, it lasts longer and when it fades it doesn't look scaley.

I tan because it makes me feel good and I love not having tan lines and I never have enough time to lay out even though I am in Florida. I don't think I would like the spray on tans because I hate having tan lines and I am not going to get naked in front of some stranger. LOL

I tan because it makes me feel better, and it helps to hide those nasty stretch marks. I go 2-3 times a week. I also feel like I look a leaner with a tan, a lot smoother.
