First Full Day of School

I posted this earlier - but it didn't show until now.

Went to Water Aerobics Friday morning.

Water was chilly - got out after an hour (45 minute class Plus a little extra work with stretchy bands) to warm. Wrapped myself up in towels and sat on the side listening (mostly) to three women for another hour.

Went home, son had just arrived, went back to pool with him. He swam laps and then sun-ed. I didn't get back IN - sat wrapped up in towels in a chair and read three magazines for an hour.

Left my suit on - threw a dress over my head - ran to bank and then to pick up girls.

Fed everyone but hubby and I.

Went back to pool with hubby for a 1/2 hour - did get IN - then ran home, showered, put on PJ's and fixed mock egg rolls for us and we watched two Alfred Hitchcock movies.

Fell asleep easily - yes, I was in my swimming suit - ALL DAY.

I have two floor length T shirt dresses left from the last time I lost. I use these as pool covers - not at the pool - but to run an errand while still in my swimming suit.

They are the type with a very scooped neck (front and back) that just don't work well with a bra. But with a swimming suit - they work great. My swimming suit top is just as fitted and supportive as a bra. I am still wearing the control panel tummy size 14 with 2" taken out of the straps.

These dresses are amazing. A tiny person could be VERY pregnant in them - they are very full and flowing. But I feel anything but fat/pregnant in them - I think that anyone looking at me IN these dresses would not think that I was trying to disguise anything. They would think that all of me was very thin - in there - behind the dress.

I still feel thinner in loose clothes than I do in fitted. I don't feel FAT in fitted clothes. I just feel thinner in loose ones.
