Old Lady is the New Hip
Status Update: I’m rounding out a month on Atkins. I’m down 6 lbs. The weight loss has plateau-ed a bit this week so I’m going to step it up w/ fewer calorie choices this week and some extra walking.
Question of the Day:
Did we make skirted swimsuits/tankinis cute again? When I say “we” I mean the Gen X/MTV generation. We did, didn’t we? It’s not just me right? I mean, when our mothers wore them, they screamed Old Lady. Now they’re super cute. Right?? Right?? Crap.
I few months ago, I made a “Virtual Robin” She comes from here. I say she looks way skinnier than me and I was totally honest about my weight when I made the model. Anyway… I put her in a bikini and she didn’t look too bad.
The trouble is, Virtual Robin is all fake. Also, she hasn’t had two kids. What happens with Reality Robin’s belly skin in a bikini is this.
Yeah…not even for krugerrands and a pile of free gasoline would I bend over in this. But…y’know what? I’m warning everbody at the community pool and Rebecca’s house. I’m wearin’ the damn bikini this summer anyway.
But skirted suits are totally hip right? Right?
you’re… I’m dumb.
Skirted suits are totally hot. So are bathing caps.
and bikini-line stubble.
Shut up, it’s HOT.
What will they think of next? A fashionable mu-mu???
If that were the virtual me I’m be appier than a pig in mud! An if you think 2 kids make your belly look not so perfect, you should see what 3 kids and being overweight looks like. Well, no, you shouldn’t ever see that as it shouldn’t ever be seen in public again!
Skirted suits are the hottest look for summer. The kind that come down to your knees. Whith calf-length bloomers and sleeves. Think http://www.kshs.org/cool/coolbath.htm
