I know I have put on a pound or two but I swear my neoprene jackets have shrunk . Does this happen or am I in denial ? Is there a way to stretch them back out ?

They totally shrink... Squeeze your "few lbs" more into it and go float around for a while, ... like I tell my wife, don't worry it will stretch....

When I was a teen, my four brothers and I drank one or two gallons of milk a day. My mom had to go to the store every other day. We were at a restaurant one day and she saw the kitchen crew changing out the three gallon bladder in their milk dispenser.

A light went on in her head, and a few days later she had one of these set up in our kitchen walk in pantry. The milk problem was solved. :D
