A bit of my background: I had a baby 14 months ago and had a hard time losing the baby weight while breastfeeding (I'm one of those that holds on to pounds while nursing). In May I had to buy a new, BIGGER bathing suit (granny suit, as I call it), since my pre-pregnancy tankini still didn't fit...

Well, on Monday we were going to go to the pool and I tried on my tankini... AND IT FIT!!! I was so happy! The bad thing was that it started raining/storming, so we didn't go to the pool, but it still felt great and gave me such motivation.

    So great!! You should be very very proud of you!

    I just bought a new suit this weekend, and actually did NOT hate it. :} And I played in the pool with my kids with no thought to how uncomfortable I was being in one. :} Dare I say it? "YAY for bathing suits???"

    I haven't gone swimming in seven years! I've never been too much of a "fish," but I bought a new suit way back seven years ago and it still has the tags on! It's a size 16. Maybe when I fit that, I'll think about getting a new suit, considering it's way out of style now!

    Yay!!! Congrats!! It's such an amazing feeling. I actually had a similar experience. I tried on my bathing suit from last year and it was wayy too big! Keep up the great work!

    Congrats on the NSV! That is such an exciting thing to have something fit again after you have not been able to wear it. Keep up the great work!
