I know that was quick. But I went to the pool. I was not out of place. The

secret is to go in the AM because only the old folks w/hanging skin are

there. The young built ones in bikini's don't come out til later. The

weather here in Florida is great and the pool was not too cold. But, after

ten minutes or so I caught a chill and had to leave. My first time in the

sun, so I didn't sun bathe. I hope this chill thing passes eventually. I

thought I was over it.

I am so excited, I did it. I bought a bathing suit. I just can't believe I

did it. I am now going to try & get the nerve to waddle over to the pool.

Wish me the strength.

*************************************

Congrats Fay. I don't own one...mainly because I don't really have a place

to use it anymore. When I went to Canada last summer/Fall, we went to a hot

springs, and I borrowed a suit from a relative. I also asked to borrow all

sorts of cover ups. I put the suit on, and yes, I looked terrible in

it....mainly the flappy arms and upper legs. But, I walked out to the pools

without even a towel wrapped around me. I figured if anyone had any issues

with MY body, that was THEIR problem. Once I got to looking around, you

know, I didn't see even ONE perfect body. Everyone has their issues with

their bodies...and everyone is so busy worrying about themselves and how THEY

look that they don't pay any attention to you! At least no one grabbed their

throats and passed out at the sight of me..which I was fully

expecting...LOL!! In fact, I didn't get so much as a second glance from

anyone...now I'm wondering if that is good or bad? I enjoyed the hot mineral

water to the max. GO for it!

I have to keep this in mind, when I think I matter so much in someone's eyes.

I only matter in the eyes of people who care about me. My son-in-law, who

pushes me to wear what I want to wear, asked that I try not to wear a thong.

Wow...good thinking on his part....you may have gone and made that fashion

faux pas!! LOL! Like NOT! Or, am I being presumptuous in assuming you

wouldn't?

I'm on a Weight Watchers list, even though I'm not on the program anymore,

because I've made some good friends there. But one poor young thing today

came on and lamented long and sadly, that she was so disappointed in

herself. She's " stuck " at 141 pounds, and could not find a bathing suit that

fit her.

I think she needs to shop around. I weight 250, and I have a bathing suit

that fits -- surely there is something out there that this poor girl can

wear!

I can't imagine, honestly, being at that level of negative self-image. She's

so desperate to get to 120, and has not ever weighed over 155 (or at least

that was her WW starting weight, and since she's like 21, I'm thinking she's

not exactly a cow yet). I weighed over 150 when I was 10 years old, so I

guess it's hard to relate.

Yet here I am, shar-pei thighs and bat wings that flap in the breeze, but

when I want to swim, I do. It ain't pretty, but that's for everyone else to

look away from. I'm grateful to be able to move around enough to get IN the

pool.

It's all a matter of perspective, right Fay?
