I too have had thoughts like you mentioned. I just have to stay focused on what my body allows me to do. I may not be supper skinny but I am able to ride, hike, run, climb, backpack....the list could go on which makes me very happy. You are in awesome shape. Heck, last year you were sidelinded with an injury and now you just completed a long distance swim.

CC- if it helps any, I will tell the truth...that when I saw the pix you posted of yourself in your bathing suit at the swim event, the first thing that popped into my mind was not "she looks fat" but it was rather "she looks pretty strong". Think of yourself as a strong woman, because that's what you are.
Strong women are sexy.
