Swim Suit season,..

I have never loathed you as much as I do this year... Yes I realize I had a baby 4 months ago, but that does not take away from the FEAR of walking outside of my house in my swim suit... 

Oh how I want my body back.... Only 5 pounds from pre baby weight - but my body still does not feel anywhere close.. I know, give it time.. I just needed to rant!

  • Ugh I know!!! I feel the same way.

  • Tell me about it.  I am really close to pre-baby weight and I still look about 5 months prego! And don't get me started on the stretchmarks this time...  nothing like making a gal feel unattractive.

  • I am 2 pounds under PP weight and I don't fit into anything. I have a gut and birthing hips. I have stress dreams about wearing a bathing suit.
  • I won't be wearing a bikini anytime soon. insert mobile sad face

    Ditto here but add pale, blubber and stretchmarks somewhere in that sentence. So depressing.

    What's FTW stand for? Eff the weight?

    It stands for "For the win" but I like f*ck the weight much better. Big Smile I figure since DS isn't supposed to be in the pool until 6 mos which puts us at August I am going to just skip the whole pool/beach scene this summer. (We live in the Bay Area, so it's doable, the beaches suck a*s.) 

    I got hit SO bad by stretch marks, and have the C section shelf to boot. I don't see bikinis in my future.

  • I've worn a bikini already, but I definitely wasn't rocking it. I don't think I looked terrible though especially since we clearly have a small baby with us. I've had 13 years to get used to not having the body of a trained athlete (before DS1 I ran competitively in college). Even after having 2 and training really hard it's just not the same as before and nothing fits right.At this point after 3 I just want to fit into my old clothes again. But I've embraced the "more womanly" body and can still wear a bikini...I just have to be more picky about what I wear.

    Umm, is it weird that I WANT to buy a one piece?? I'm normally suuuuper flat chested, so one pieces never looked quite right on me. Now that I actually have boobs, and there are so many cute, retro looking one pieces out there now, I'm kind of excited to give it a try!

    You have a point! They are a lot cuter now with more styles! I was just sad because last year I bought 2 new bikinis for my honeymoon in Maui and was at my lightest weight and most fit. I look in the mirror like oh, how the mighty have fallen lol.

    In all seriousness, I don't loathe my body. I get I just gave birth, blah blah, blah. I just have a slight vain streak. It's genetic. ;-)

  • One reason I'm glad I don't wear them anymore. I would dread having to put on a regular bathing suit right now.
