Help!Want to start swimming but very self conscious?

Question

I really want to start swimming to tone up my body. The problem is im extremely embarrassed of my fat body. What osrt of swimming costume could I wear to make me look less fat? |Im 5ft4 and 120 pounds.

Also any other tips, confidence wise with getting into a public swiiming pool?

Answer 1

If I'm picturing my math right, that isn' fat.  But anyhoo, I love the two pieced swim wear approach  with the tank and shorts bottoms. I don't think I've worn a braw top, one piece or panty style bottoms since I was very youthful.  

Answer 2

A regular speedo or simillar brand is perfect for fitness swimming. It is basic and most partterns they have camoflague bumps in your body and hold everything in well.  I've been swimming so many years that I feel fully clothed in a swim suit, it's a great way to get over being self counscious.  Good luck!

Answer 3

ohmigosh u r NOT fat. im 5'1 and 130pds and i dont look that bad.

still feel self concious? get the type of bathing suit that comes down to your legs. it makes you more streamline anyway.

and if your still worried, just remember that its not how you look in your bathing suit, its wat u can do with it when its on.

hope this helps!!! :^D
