I knew I was too big when.....
My kids wanted me to take them for scuba diving lessons this year on hols (my hubby doesn't swim, so I've had to teach them confidence in the water from the time they were babies, they're now teenagers & brilliant swimmers!) Anyhoo, this year they wanted me to go with them, but I knew damned well I'd never find a wet suit to fit me, so I had to promise them faithfully next year I'll do it, AND I WILL! What really made me more determined, was when I came home from hols - a neighbour, who is same age as me, but slim, said she went to same place by coincidence to learn to scuba dive with her teens, and they had the best time ever and why didn't I do it, they would've enjoyed it etc. etc. I couldn't tell her I was too fat to fit a wet suit - I couldn't tell anyone. Roll on next summer!
