Finding workout clothes

  • is the PIIIIIITS. It's awful. I exercise in biker shorts (which I like from Target) and a t-shirt - I need a different top but when I try on the exercise tops - well, I have a huge stomach and it is pretty gross. I'm wondering if I could try a swimsuit top???? I don't want something tight around my stomach or chest and every exercise top I've tried is way too tight and I couldn't be seen in public in (which I wouldn't be anyway because I love to exercise at home - but still, how do others do it when they do go to gyms????) Maybe that is something I should look into doing - designing workout clothes for WOMEN. I searched the internet some but my goodness . . . to pay $40 for a more fitting tank top. PLAIN JANE. I don't think so. Or maybe I should just cut the sleeves off my t-shirts. Thank goodness finding workouts I like to do is so much easier!

    Any other ideas??? Anyone try swimsuit tops????

  • Junonia (junonia.com) is probably the best online source that I've found. A couple months ago I discovered Catherine's (maybe I should say RE-discovered them). They used to have really futzy, old-lady tent clothes, but are much changed. Anyway, they had an awesome selection of plus-sized workout clothes. Everything from jogging suits to yoga pants & shirts--and reasonably priced.

    Ah! I just checked online and Catherine's DOES have their stuff online at this link: http://catherines.charmingshoppes.co....aspx?attr=915 I actually have those capri-length "active cropped pants" and LOVE them (they fit kind of loose, NOT TIGHT) as well as the pink top just to the left of them.
  • You design and I will make
    Hey you design them and I will make them. I have been thinking I would love to have some too but I too can not afford those prices. I have done sewing for years and have been looking for a part time business to do. That one sounds great.
