I have two or three bathing suits that I haven't recently even had the nerve to try on. Instead the last few years I wear a pair of shorts and a top. I ordered from L L Bean what I thought might work as a bathing suit and it was hideous! I am learning to just "be" with this pouch. It gets in my way but it is a part of my aging body. So be it - what can one do? Unlike you I don't go to the beach every day so it isn't in my face as much and that helps. My expectations continue to lessen about my body weight (weighing two more pounds when I had my check up last week and I swear it is in the pouch). My joy comes from the inner and there I feel comfortable and at peace. Joan,
