Good morning! Its cold and raining here so there goes our morning hike with the pups. Plan on doing some organizing around the house today, doing our taxes, and meal planning for the week as well.
QOTD - I don't listen to music when I work out anymore, it's when I do my best thinking! I also don't really listen to upbeat music anymore. I'm super mellow now (Adele, David Gray, James Taylor are my favorites) but I love ALL 70's music and Classic Rock (especially Led Zep + Pink Floyd). I will say that I love that song Uptown Funk, it's a lot of fun.

l-ham and cheese

Good morning IF and crew! I finally got back to the pool yesterday. What a completely different experience... I was so cold. I now sink where before I floated. I have a lot of loose thigh skin and arm skin that looks terrible. And my size 18 swimsuit swims on me. Not very much fun anymore. I used to love swimming. Hmmmm. Need to look for a different activity.
QOTD: probably something catchy like Katy Perry's Hot N' Cold or Justin Timberlake Can't Stop the Feeling or Walk The Moon's Shut Up and Dance.
B: Fairlife with coffee and Miralax, egg custard (thanks Daizy!), 1/2 Premier Protein chocolate
L: Dannon greek peach yogurt, turkey jerky 1 oz, Laughing Cow wedges 2
D: Irish lamb stew from Costco, salad
S: Syntrax fuzzy navel, diet cran pomegranate
Totals: 792 calories 88 protein 62 carbs 22 fat
Have a great day, everyone!

I was wondering the same thing about swimming. I'm a lifetime swimmer and a pool lover. I had no issue wearing a suit before as my skin was at least filled out. Not the case anymore which makes me sad. I was thinking of getting a compression suit with legs(mid thigh) and wearing a swim shirt. There are many suit combos to be had and I see others wearing them. I was looking forward to getting back in the water this summer and hoping the weight loss would help with my speed, breathing and fatigue.

I bought a suite from modli last night. My old one is huge and my arms are just terrifying. The new one I bought is a rash guard top with 3/4 length sleeves and long shorts for the bottoms. I think the suits are made for orthodox Jewish women...and many are very, very modest. But some look more typical. I just wanted something to contain my skin, lol.

How is your suit compression wise? I was going to check out speedo online, I think they have some but they are expensive.
