My 1st NSV!
I'm wearing a 2 piece bathing suit when I go to swim lengths as of yesterday and am loving that I don't have much in the way of rolls where my top cuts across my sides to my back. Before it dug in and I was really embarrassed of how it looked like I was wearing a kids bathing suit. This is just a little victory for me in…
