I had to go swimming with my daughter, nephew, and niece this weekend, and I only had a size 18 suit, which I knew would be way too big. So I went to the sporting goods store, the only place in town that has suits, held my breath, and grabbed a size 12 off the rack. Didn't try it on, didn't hold it up, just paid and took it home. Well, I tried it on, and HOLY CRAP!!!!! it fit perfectly! My husband was blown away, I almost cried. I can't even remember the last time I went swimming, let alone wore a swimsuit.

WOW!!! And just think what next summer will be like!!! You've done a remarkable job and should be proud of yourself!!!
