Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Well, I give her major kudos for losing 100lbs, anyway. The worst part, just from my observations, is that they probably would have let her get away with wearing the same swim suit if she had the extra 100lbs of goo spilling out of it. Yechh.
More power to her.

She forgot the first rule of dressing for summer : Dress for the body you have not the body you want.

My daughter said something this morning, that relates to this, that made me feel really proud of her. She recently graduated from college and she's working (among other jobs) as a personal trainer at one of the big gym chains in the area to pay off bills and save up for graduate school (she's going to get her doctorate in physical therapy). She was an heptathlete and hurdler in college and has her degree in nutrition so she's a good fit for someone wanting to lose weight.
She related this story to me...she was visiting her brother at his bartending job last night (also paying his way through college) and she was mentioning how one of her clients frequently responded to difficult tasks with "I can't do this" and would quit without trying. So she has to find ways to motivate her.
She said, "I just don't get that. At all. As long as I can remember whenever I tried something and it was really hard or impossible it just meant that I had to focus on that more...not less. Anything that was nearly impossible just went to the top of the 'must work on more' pile."
He brother replied, "I can't even imagine quitting something because I couldn't do it very well. It was OK to quit it...once you'd mastered it...or at least given it your best shot. But not till then."
It was a great 'Dad moment'. At least to my way of thinking. Of course, it's probably all due to their mother.

She wasnt too big for that bikini. And it was not obscene. I saw the pictures of her everything was just fine. It was the pedophiles that run the place that wanted her gonne. They couldnt focus on the preteens with her dressed that way.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

That was supposed to read, "They came for the MILFs", man I blew that line.
I was impressed with the 100 pound loss, just think of how hard that must have been, good for her.

+1 I really think she was treated unfairly. There was nothing showing that shouldn't or that doesn't show on most any female with a similar suit on.

She said it herself that the skinny girls were wearing the same size bikinis. She had so much hanging out already that one trip down a water slide would surely have caused the rest to pop out.

"She had so much hanging out already that one trip down a water slide would surely have caused the rest to pop out." So is that a feature or a bug?

I wonder if she was acting to draw attention to herself.
