...And the magic bathing suit number is...
Thanks guys - I did Lands End last year; the bottoms are good in a 4, but the top is huge in the boob area. My Sears has a Lands End department, I forgot about that (even worse considering I own one.....)
I will revisit them this year too.
I just went through my catalogs this afternoon - I put them in a pile till I have a chance to look at them, and I came across one from Athleta - they have really nice ones too!!
Will let you know how I do when I do my shopping :)

Believe it or not, I just bought a new suit at Sam's Club. A Speedo tankini in a size medium. The bottoms perfect but the top, well, I could have used a small but then the girls would have looked "smooshed." The medium is just a hair big so I will have to take that in...
Size is just a number. Whatever looks good.

I wish they made suits that did something about thunder thighs! I've had them all of my life and so far they are here to stay!
I am a little size obsessed still, I will get over it eventually-I hope! I am happy to keep seeing the numbers go DOWN!! However, I am a HUGE supporter of women wearing what FITS, not what is "their size".
You look great, girl, and good for you for knowing that (I still struggle greatly with self-image). Sizes are definitely screwey, which is why even in maintenance I still take my measurements every month. The tape measure cannot lie!!
