What should I wear to swimming class at school?I'm very self conscious,and I think I may be the only girl in ?

Question

the class?

Okay, i go to high school,and I decided to take a year round course in lifegaurd training,so instead of gym,I have to go swimming in the pool. School hasn't started yet , so I'm not entirely sure about this ,but I think I may be the only girl in the class,because I'm sure alot of other girls wouldn't want to sign up for a course like this,because they probably wouldn't find the idea of walking around with wet hair every day very appealing. Because I'm pretty sure that there aren't going to be many girls in the class , I'll feel pretty embrassed being in a bathing suit in front of all guys, because I've always be embrassed with the way I look forever. Its not that I'm fat or anything , However I think I am very fat , and have never,ever,thought of my self as thin.(btw:I'm 5'6 1/2" and weigh about 90lbs) So now I have an issue with wearing a bathing suit, does anyone have any suggestions about what style/type of bathing suit I should be wearing to be decent(b/c its at school,and I don't want to look provocative) and to be as covered as possible, because I don't want to look fat?

Oh,and btw: I have no b***s at all , and i'm extremely flat-chested , so please don't suggest the bikini top ,and boyshorts option

Answer 1

A one piece with a skirt that u can swim in.

Answer 2

you are definatly suffering from anorexia nervosa.

you look in the mirror and see yourself as fat when you are super skinny

you are 30 pounds too skinny from a healthy weight

you need to see a doctor.!

Answer 3

I really hope you forgot to put a 1 in front of that 90Ibs. becasue if you do wiegh 90Ibs. at your height you are THIN! Just wear a one piece if you are really uncomfordable in a solid color (blue,forest green, nothing red!) and be confidante im sure you can hang with the boys, and if they give you any slack, just remebr you are a female who had the balls to take that class!

Relax your there for a grade, not a guy.  

Answer 4

i wish my school had that xD

anyway, i would wear a one piece suit like tyr or speedo

thats just me

maybe cause im on the swim team. idk

hope i helped

btw, im sure other girls might join because i would

Answer 5

You are DEFINITELY not fat. You would not have a problem with a bikini at all. I'm not saying get a string bikini, but definitely get a bikini, maybe something with a padded top. Also, you might like a tankini. It's like a tank top, with boyshorts, or hipster bottoms. You can get one with padding, to help you out a little. Surf shops would be best, maybe like Roxy. Try it on, and see if you like it! Good Luck, and make sure your a better lifeguard than all the guys! :D  

Answer 6

90 pounds fat? thats about anerexic...not making fun just saying. I think a one piece bathing suit from the speedo company would be appropriate.  

Answer 7

.....your like 3 inches taller than me almost...and you weigh..20 pounds less than me? and I"m almost underweight...

that is sick.

Answer 8

bikini tops and boy shirts are about the stomach more than they are the chest.  If you've got a nice stomach you can show that off, otherwise cover it up.  After that it's all about your fashion choice, and that's cut, colour, design, etc.  

Time to go shopping and try on everything you can get your hands on, you'll find something you like, or at least something you hate the least.  And try to bring a guy along to tell you what he think looks good on you.  

Answer 9

a tankini would be good, or just a normal swimsuit since it is life guard training.

Answer 11

Okay,

You are a couple years older than my daughter (13), but if she asked

me this question here's what I'd say:

First of all, if you are 5'6 1/2" tall and you only weigh 90 lbs., you are

VERY far from anyone's idea of fat!!!

Second, SINCE YOU'RE AT SCHOOL, I would get a one-piece tank

suit - maybe with an interesting back, but not low. You know, kinda

like someone on the swimteam would wear to compete.  If you cannot

stand a one-piece (although, I am sure your school has rules about

this), get a tankini with a top that comes down over the bottoms, and

the bottoms should not be a bikini or high-cut legs.  My daughter found a tankini this summer that was very pretty -- it had a sort of skirt for the bottom and the top could actually be worn as a halter...but that may be a little too girly for swim class...

Good luck,

Answer 12

yeah if your in high school

and are 90 lbs

you need to go see a doctor right away

Answer 13

5'6 1/2 with 90 pounds? Honey, that doesn't sound fat at all.

On the contrary, you sound very thin. And you might not be the

only girl there, I hang by the pool all the time and wait for the

Lifegaurd Training Courses to be over and I've seen a lot of girls.

However if you still feel very self conscious try a one piece?

Once you get more confident around your swimming peers you might

want to update into a tankini.

And don't worry, people won't be there to look at you. They're

there to train how to be a lifegaurd. ;)

Answer 14

You poor sick girl.

Go see a doctor.

You should be weighing at least 130 pounds or more.

Answer 15

i took the same course when i was in high school and actually we only had 2 guys in our class and the rest girls... usually you wear a one piece when you are in swimming..for one thats what swimmers wear (watch olympics) and wearing a 2 piece might just be weird..and you might wanna check if you are even allowed to wear a 2 piece..we would have been kicked out if we wore a 2 piece..my suggestion would be a one piece..maybe just like a nike one or something simple and plain and not to flashy!  good luck it was a fun course for me!:)

Answer 16

wow ur 90lbs!! and 5.6 believe me ur skinny and don't worry the guys will prolly be checkin you out. maybe find a bathing suit with a little padding and just be warned u might have to wear a one piece

Answer 17

If you are taking a lifeguard class, they are going to suggest the proper bathing suit. Normally the speedo brand one piece with the race back. Don't worry about the boys, at first you'll be a little freaked,but all of these people will just be "the guy or girl in your lifeguard class"  

Answer 18

id go the bikini top and the shorts option,you can find some cool girl shorts,you know the roxy brand and that.You dont want to were like A bikini bottem because doing physical stuff like surf rescue and first aid stuff you dont wanna be throwing your legs around with one of them on.

Or the one pice option with shorts,popular here in Australia with female life guards.Dont worry you will be ok.You will be the envy of the other girls for being with all the boys in the class,Just have fun.

Answer 19

get a bikini.

I know you told me NOT to say that..

but, you're skinny as h**l...

It wouldn't hurt.

Try wearing the bikini top, and then board shorts.

those are awesome.

that's what i do.

<>okay, so you're flat-chested.

boohooo!

go cry me a river,

build a bridge and jump over it.

:]

Answer 20

you know your thin.....you juust want someone to say your not fat.......get over yourself....and stop trying to recieve comments on your body.....you dont go looking for compliments
