My suit just arrived and it fits phonemically.  Other than my just being a little larger in the shoulders and having to do a small bit of a tuck, it flatters me greatly.  Because I have not been able to diet myself to 138 pounds I was concerned that I would look too fat in it.  I was almost in tears when I tried it on and saw myself in the mirror.  It really makes me look trim. Will post a photo/s when I have time.  I am planning a day at the beach in Florida next month and I hope to get to swim in the ocean in this suit.  The Miracle suit really does what it says.  See attached Tag.  Dawn

Dear Dawn,

That's great! Looking forward to seeing your pictures!

Have come across a company, called Shapermint, (but I have not seen their product, although it looks very good), that seems to sell outstanding shapewear. Their website is:

Keep me posted, girl!

Yours in Sisterhood,

Thanks Monica - you are right Shapermint has some great styles.  I priced the same swimsuit and theirs was $160+ for the Oceanus style but I was able to get mine at less than 50% of this price at Rue Lala.  (Another great store.)  Still I signed up for discounts with Shapermint and I saw several great looking dresses and swimsuits. Thanks so much for helping me shop.  I am getting much better at this, but I still have a lot to learn about selecting the best clothing for myself as a woman.  However, I feel I have always had the artistic and feminine mind that enables me to enjoy shopping for beautiful things. Lately with these feelings I have had no problem shopping in the women's section in various stores, including trying on dresses and sportswear.  I have also moved away from just going to thrift shops to buying from better stores new items that makee feel good about my image.  Yes, my confidence as a woman has really grown lately, and I know part of this is occurring as my body now fits better with my feminine mind; has become more reshaped; softer and rounder.  For this trip because I have been a bit heaver than I wanted to be I decided wearing a 👙 bikini was not best for me, until I am back to 140 or less.  The swimsuit I just bought will help me cover up my belly and will be a good starting point for me for future days on the beach when I may be ready for a bikini in the future. When I go to Florida on this trip I will be alone most of the time and I will have several days I can totally be my feminine self.  I am looking forward to the freedom and being able to express myself as a woman for these days and I will be totally free to do my makeup and wear my best, yes sexy, beach wear - still I do not plan to go overboard wearing high hills and extravagant night wear.  I just want to blend in, be noticed as a woman, but not draw too much attention; not get too excited about this opportunity for fun as a girl.  Dawn
