Who cares? Put on that suit. Life is too short. Swimming was always the best for me. As long as the water was warm. I swam several times a day when I lived in central FL. Now that I'm in Jacksonville, the pool is only open from Memorial Day-Labor Day and I miss it. I nearly drowned myself one year at my friend's upstate NY farm. The water was cold, as expected, the muscles refused to work, not expected. I also did the Curves thing for a while. It is pretty low impact and comprehensive. I quit that after a year beacause it started to really bother my knee and I was only able to go a few times a month. Other than that, it was a good experience and cheap.

Hi April,

I would, but I have some serious stretch marks from all the swelling and fast weight gain from my pregnancy too and so i'm not a pretty fat lady! Plus, I don't have anyone to go with me. I'd probably go if I had someone to go and support me, but my mom (who also has fibro) is just as 'anti swimsuit' as I am. Even though she looks good one.

Since everyone says swimming is the best...I'll see if I can't get her to squeeze in a suit with me and hit the pool! Everyone has to start somewhere right?!
