I ordered a swimming suit off of Shade.com (the pink top and black bottoms) and it came in the mail yesterday. Not sure what I think about it.
I ordered it in my "normal" size so that it will fit for years to come (I have had my last suit for 6 years) It doesnt exactly fit me perfectly right now. It is VERY safe to say that it doesn't fit perfectly right now.
First of all...my breasts...totally hanging out of the top. While it looks nice...I'm not used to such "voluptisity"...not sure I'm comfortable with it...can't wait for my AA breast back...they will look much more "covered" in the top.
Secondly...since I gained most of my preggo weight in my hips and butt it is also safe to say that the bottoms are a bit snug.
Not sure what to do. Should I return it? Should I go out and buy some bottoms that are a bit bigger until I shed the weight?
Anyway...because of this "enlightenment", I decided to go across the street and use my neighbors scale...
15 lbs to reach my goal (12lbs pre preg weight).
I'm sure the suit will look better with that 15lbs off.
Guess that means I will have to say goodbye to:
Costco muffins
Ice cream and brownies every night
overflowing bowls of capn' crunch cereal
12 lbs bags of candy (also from costco)
candy bars
etc....
I may just have to go for a "leisurely walk" on my elliptical this morning. I would go outside but the wind gusts are crazy!
Any advise?

by the way, that's 3lbs lost so far.
I say keep it...you're not that far off from your goal and it'll act as more motivation! Knowing you, once you are able to start exercising (legally...) you'll drop the weight in no time.
Oh, and by the way, you totally inspired me yesterday when I read this post. I had hit that mid afternoon slump and was trying muster the engery to do something useful. I read your post, then immediately went and changed my clothes and did a killer workout. Literally. I'm very sore this morning! So, thanks for keeping me on track.
And in case anyone is curious, I'm down to 186. That's a total of 8 lbs. Woo hoo!
