Speaking of which... I wore one of my Retro jerseys last night and it looked and felt great! I bought two several months ago, in blue and pink, wore the blue one once, deemed it too tight for public consumption, and shelved them both. Now, 8 pounds lighter and having acquired a really cool Shebeest sports bra which has liberated me from bra lines under my jerseys, I felt brave and wore the blue one again last night. True, it's an XL which is a size bigger than all of my other Shebeest jerseys, but the clinginess of the fabric actually made me look slim!
So, BMo3, thank you for telling me your story and inspiring me to get back on the weight loss bandwagon!

Cari,
The Orbit feels great and I would not consider it a cold weather top. Cooler temps, yes, cold definitely not, IMO. In the Wahini and K2 styles I wear a Large, but in the Orbit the Large is really too big. I would have sent it back for a Medium, but decided loose is fine, I can add layers under it, right? I really like the feel of the Orbit. Even more so than the K2. 
CONGRATULATIONS on the weight loss and fitting into the jerseys!!!! Keep up the great work!
Now, tell me about this bra made by Shebeest that does not show lines, please?
