It may not seem like a big deal, but this week I stopped in at Target and bought a bathing suit top off the rack. I didn't try it on but I got one size smaller than the one I have been wearing. Today, when I got to the pool I tried it on and actually looked at myself, in my bathing suit, in front of a full length mirror. The suit fit, and I looked pretty good all things considered.

What a great feeling! Congrats! Last week someone told me the pants I was wearing were too big! I'll take it!

There she goes again, the Mistress of Understatement.

Repeat after me: "I am a hot babe."

Again!

Wonderful! I think this is a GREAT NSV. I can't wait for something like that to happen. I've not donned a bathing suit in many many many years. ISG - thanks for sharing!

Possibly. I happen to like yellow but have never had a yellow bathing suit. I haven't worn a non-tankini two piece since junior high and I have NEVER worn a bikini in my life. Anything is possible!

I would love to wear one--someday. However, until I deal with my "apron" I would have to pick up belly skin in order to see the bikini bottom.

But, I have dreams...someday, right?

@@Inner Surfer Girl that is a great accomplishment. I was in Target recently and I could fit the regular size suits and that had me pretty excited.

I would have purchased one but none of them had the breast support I need. It felt great to fit everywhere else though.

Nice!!

Good for you!! Isn't it nice to be able to shop at a reasonably priced store?

I knew my bathing suit was getting too big, but kept wearing it because I was hesitant to get a new one...they're so expensive at the "plus size" clothing stores.

Anyway, had to break down and get one when my boobs were basically floating outside my suit during deep Water aquasize.

I went to Walmart and got a suit for $30...I was beyond happy!! No more flashing the lifeguards!!
