So for the first time in 20+ years...

Buying a bathing suit is exciting!

Yes. I still wear a tankini, and yes, it still has a skirt bottom but the choices are amazing!

So many colors, so many shapes, and I'm not the side show fat lady at the river/pool/ beach when I remove my cover up.

I don't even get pissed off when someone pulls out a camera and I'm in the shot or when it ends up on facebook. Y'all know, that's HUGE.

I still need to pre-approve all FB pictures though, lol.

I find that I'm more worried now about how I look in a bathing suit or shorts than I was pre WLS. I'm all jiggly and stuff. Not that I was even close to NOT being jiggly before, but everything kinda sags. Arms, thighs, probably my butt too but I'm afraid to look.

Totally get ya!! I didn't care so much before, but now I stress about how I look. We are some strange creatures. Lol
