Because I Want to be Able to Wear Short Shorts

Today’s reason for getting healthy is ....I want to be comfortable with my body again. As I’ve said before I’ve never been completely satisfied with my body. But there was a time when I had no problem wearing shorts that hit mid-thigh, sleeveless tops and even bikinis in public! Somewhere along this weight gain road I stopped wearing anything that came above my knee, if something is sleeveless I usually cover up my arms with a sweater or shrug, and I wouldn’t be caught dead in a bikini now, In fact all my swimsuit bottoms are either shorts or skirts.


There is nothing wrong with shopping to flatter your body, hiding a few problem spots; it’s a problem when the problem area becomes your whole body. As it is I’ve always had problems shopping for clothes because I’m so busty, but now it’s gotten so outta hand. I can’t shop in most of my favorite stores because I get too frustrated by not having my sized stock in the store. When it comes t-shirts and sweaters I can usually find something, but anything cute or tailored I have to special order or buy at a plus size shop. So my motivation for the day is I want to be comfortable in a bikini in public again
