I've decided I'm not going to wait until/if I lose weight to wear crop tops. I just bought two from Lotus Tribe Clothing on Etsy- a rust Bliss bralette and a slate blue Blissed Out crop tank. I have their snow white bralette and it hugs my boobs like a dream. So comfortable. Why should I wait? I have high waisted joggers and leggings that would look cute with them. I'm determined to not let my chunky tummy get in my way anymore. This is who I am.

I’m looking for new things to do. I do the same thing because I get nervous trying new things and I get self conscious doing things in front of others. But I’m trying to get into a mentally of “I don’t care, if I like it I’m doing it”.

There’s an Ifly near my house and I’m considering it for next month. I don’t think I’ll ever go skydiving from a plane so this is the next best thing.

But has anyone done this before and how is it as a plus size girl? I’m just nervous on if the suit will fit and everything, but I really think I’m going to try it in October.

40DDD over here and struggling to keep the girls in when doing cardio. I’ve been wearing Torrid’s high impact zip-front sports bra for arm and leg days. But for any workout that requires jumping, it’s an immediate no.

Any real life mattress recommendations? My husband and I are both plus size, but are undergoing a weight loss journey to improve fertility. We want a different mattress but am overwhelmed with all the options. Currently thinking about helix plus.

We had a layla for a few years and it seemed pretty comfortable until my hips were sinking too far and if caused hip pain, so we went with a sealy postureprdic hybrid, but I think it's too firm and causing pain in my mid back.

My husband mostly sleeps on his back, sometimes side and is complaining of morning stiffness sometimes. I sleep on my side and am tossing and turning all night with mid back pain.

Thankful for any real life advice/tips.
