Comments on: Diary of a Fitness Flunky: How Going to the Pool Helped My Self Esteem http://blissfullydomestic.com/life-bliss/health-life-bliss/diary-of-a-fitn/1809/ Fri, 25 May 2012 12:01:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: JessicaAPISS http://blissfullydomestic.com/life-bliss/health-life-bliss/diary-of-a-fitn/1809/#comment-7607 JessicaAPISS Sat, 21 Jun 2008 13:35:10 +0000 http://blissfullydomestic.com/uncategorized/diary-of-a-fitness-flunky-how-going-to-the-pool-helped-my-self-esteem/#comment-7607 I love love this post! At my pool we're all going into pregnancies, heavily pregnant, coming out of pregnancies or just the bearer of regular mom bodies. Everyone is real, we do the best we can. As long as you're healthy, don't sweat it too much. And never compare yourself to the SI swimsuit issue. Even when actresses and models are photographed at the beach, they still have jiggle, cellulite, veins. Magazines are not reality, they're basically computer-generated avatar representations of people. I love love this post!

I started water aerobics last year... The first day I carefully skirted my way around the edge of the pool and got into the water a little while before the class was due to start. Much to my amazement... I was the youngest member there... the rest of the class members were all senior citizens... Talk about making my day, my week, my year :)~ I totally can relate to your post… I started water aerobics last year… The first day I carefully skirted my way around the edge of the pool and got into the water a little while before the class was due to start.

I couldn't do the skirted suit. I did get a sheer black pareo that can get wet and be dry in 3 minutes, so no need to take it off if I don't want to. Yes, you see some real confidence boosters at the pool! I bought the sexiest suit I could find that still covered me up a bit. I couldn’t do the skirted suit.
