I've become "I am what I am; it is what it is." as far as body image. I just got a new big ol' swimming suit, too. We have a postage stamp pool in my community, but we went twice last week. Playing in the water is good, right? I never really learned to swim in spite of living across the road a stone's throw from the lake. Silly. Way to go on the working out. :) Bravo!!!

And remember when you are IN the pool - no one can really see you anyway - so it is all in your perception - and you are good to just make yourself get over it and get in! Very glad that you have this opportunity - good cross training!
