Do they make wetsuits for fat ladies?

My pool has already dropped to 76 degrees and I just can't stand to get in it anymore, it's painful that cold! I was hoping to use it for at least another month before the water got too cold. I'd like to buy a short wetsuit so I can keep swimming but I can't find plus sized wetsuits on the internet. I don't really want to wear a men's suit cause it would be too big around the shoulders and probably still too small around the hips. I'm kind of embarrassed to go to a sporting goods store and try them on, they ain't exactly easy to slip into, and can you imagine the salesperson's face when somebody my size asks for a wetsuit? Anybody know of a website that sells them for us fluffy ladies?

I would think they do! I've seen bigger people diving and surfing so they've gotta be out there somewhere. Have you tried surfboard or dive shops? I don't know that sporting goods stores would have any.

Try this place. I just googled wetsuits.

Wetsuit Info How to Buy a Wetsuit

I don't know how much it'll help but it looked like it had a lot of good information and tons of different suits. At the very least you could e-mail them and ask them if they know of a place if they don't carry your size.

awesome, thanks guys! off to check out those sites :thumbup:

*back to edit* I was so excited, that Siren site has big sizes, but the heaviest suit they have is only recommended down to 75 degrees, my Water is already there and dropping. Gonna call the other place tomorrow :)
