Reply from trust me, Age 20 - 01/28/04 - IP#: 209.172.247.xxx I would be willing to bet that the girls that are 100 lbs are just as uneasy about getting in a swimsuit...everyone will be so preoccupied with how they look that noone will be noticing anyone else!
Reply from Marie, Age 14 - 01/27/04 - IP#: 68.13.6.xxx Ah I know how that is! I am dreading the though of having to swim at school next year in highschool, part of my motivation for losing weight! But I think that if you really don't want to you should try and have your mom or dad write a letter or meet with the teacher of that class and explain why and that you dont' feel comfortable swimming with other people, maybe they can come up with a solution instead of swimming there. Good Luck *Marie*
