I'M ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED! (UGHHHHHHHH)

I have been searching and searching and searching to find a swimsuit to wear to water aerobics at the gym and I have had no success. I have gone looking in stores - today again as well. I have looked online at like a bazillion websites that I can't even remember which is which anymore.

What the Fudge is wrong with designers these days. We are not all stick thin models...the average size in America is 12. So bleapin start designing stuff to fit the average body. That would mean something that will hold you in and up. IT's not really that hard to understand.

I need a suit that will hold up to the chlorine. Something with a high back. Something black. And I'd love something with cups and underwire but now that would be asking for a miracle.

So I'm willing to settle with finding the the first three needs, and then just wear a stupid sports bra under it for support.

But do you think I can even find this. And if I do find it - it's rediculously expensive. And then of course because I live in Canada they gotta jack the shipping prices up. Does it really cost $35 to ship a swimsuit to canada. I DOUBT IT!

ughh. I'm a size 20. If you have any suggestions or if you wanna take a look on the net in your spare time to see if you hit the jackpot please feel free to let me know what you find.

Sorry to ramble - I have been depressed lately and not dealing well with my emotions - just needed to get it out even if no-one is listening. Ok vent over. I believe Liquor Mart is open still - a bottle of wine to ease my frustrations might help.

I will see what I can find for you! I think swimsuit shopping is the most horrible shopping in the world---I totally get you.

I had a hard time finding my swim suit last year... but I just looked and they've brought it back for this year, it might work for you too!

For me I wanted a one piece black suit that had high waist to make my legs look longer (the boy shorts and skirts may hide but they make you look bigger) and show a little bit of cleaveage to draw the eye upward. Anyway, here's a *black* *one piece* for *19.95* that they have in a *XXL* (size 20-22 I think that equals, right?) It has *5.00* S&H but I didn't see if it goes to Canada or how much that would be.

Click here to hopefully end your search!


I do wish it had underwire though... but ya can't win em all, eh?




Oh and here's another black one piece, this one's for $29. click here

Thanks for the suggestions. Though all of those are really cute - they won't really work well with my body - big, busty, and bouncing around the water.....I'd hate to be thrown outta water aerobics for indecent exposure. lol

I actually have the first suit from old navy - or one very similar but it's in a dark red color and it doesnt fit me anymore. lol Someday again hopefully!

I think I found one that will deliver to canada. It's $69 + tax but it's solid, one peice, chlorine resistant, and has good support and full back so I could wear a sports bra if needed. Hopefull it holds up well for the price.

Thanks again.
