full-figured and full of...

okay, it had to happen sooner or later... my first slam post.

let me just put it out there... i am overweight... a "full-figured" woman, if you will. the moment i actually started taking some action against my state of full-figuredness is the moment i was able to finally admit that i am, in fact, full-figured.

that being said... i was searching all over the web for the perfect bathing suit for "fuller" women. not fun, by the way. as a full-figured woman, what would YOU look for in a bathing suit? maximum coverage right? something not so embarrassing to you and not so offensive to others? something like a moo-moo you'd wear in a pool, right? yeah, me too. so i'm looking for something specific, obviously... some kind of swimdress, perhaps. something that doesn't have a plunging neckline or backline. the search is producing mediocre results. i did find a really great one, but it was sold out (of course). and then i remember... lane bryant! they're a plus-size department store! so i hightail it over to lanebryant.com to discover they carry two (2!) swimdresses... and they suck. lane bryant is the biggest joke i've encountered in my endeavor. and thus the title for my blog...

I totally have a swim dress. Well it is two pieces, but it has a skirt and covers a lot! I LOVE it. It's a total "Mommy" swimsuit, though. :)
