[geebs]

The closest you will get me to swimwear is walking past it at the store... No way... You need a army blanket to hide my flaws.. ha ha... Nice suit RoPo!!!

Don't pull on it or adjust it so often..
A lot of people don't realize that when they do that continuously, it stretches out the fabric. It's a hard habit to break...

I've wanted a KSM since I was... what 13 maybe? I've lost track, it's just ALWAYS been there you know? Thing about the mixer... there's only so much space between my countertop and my cabinet bottom, so in order to be able to USE it I'd have to get the 4.5qt... it has the bowl lowering jobber, not tilt head (obviously I can't tilt the head up enough to do any good) but at the same time is JUST short enough to fit in the space. Unfortunately finding one is impossible... unless you want to pay MORE than full price plus $40+ in shipping. I'll wait until I have a better kitchen and get on I actually want... not just one that fits. Knowing that, I can wait.

Snooping at those suits... they do have a SwimDress that would cover my excessively stretchmarked legs (swelled up like a freaking whale after I was allowed to walk after DD's C-section, never knew why just that I had to wear my FIL's sweats and they were skin tight and house slippers because my feet were double their normal size... so now I have marks basically from armpits to ankles, joy.) but then I have to worry about the top. In the pics it look like the model was packing on top in proportion to below... NOT me at all... I got all the bum & little topside (think pyramid with tree trunks for legs) and my sis got all the boulders but no bum (upside down pyramid on scrawny sticks for legs) That's the problem with buying a size 12, 14, 16 top... they actually expect you to HAVE something to fill it out besides shoulders. *sigh*

Slimsuits have underwire, but no bra, so they support any size!

Yeah yeah, so you say... until I lean over... the girls and gravity don't get along.

Maybe I could install some Velcro or something...

I have paid $150 for a swimsuit just to have the good support up top and it STILL didn't hold all the boobs in.

I have a couple suits from Land's End that are pretty much that same exact cut, RoPo. I think they are about $85 normally, but I got one of mine on sale for like around $35. They definitely hold me in, that's for sure! They are heavy duty suits, almost too much so because they can get quite hot. I really like them though.
