Hello ladies!

So, I'm on the hunt for a new swimsuit and would love some suggestions! I've lost a little over 100 lbs in the past six month so I have some very unflattering excess skin in my upper thighs that I would like to cover. However, I'm relatively young and don't want to be forced to wear the typical mom swimsuit with a skirt.

Any ideas of styles, companies, stores or websites to check out?

Thanks a million!

Try Lands End they go up to 24w and the have swimming shorts and swimming tank tops.

Did you try Lane Bryant or Just My Size catalogs?

Target goes up to a 24w in bathing suits.

At the moment that's all I can think of.

Let your computer do some of the work for you.

I bought some board shorts from JC Penney for the summer. I love them. I have the same issues with my thighs as well, and these shorts cover all that. I don't think I look too "mom"...and I bought a cute top that shows off the work I've done since last summer :) Good luck!

Check out "MiracleSuit"

I just ordered one, and am waiting for it to come.

They are expensive, but I got a brand new one

on E - Bay for a third of the price.

They have a lot of support and look sexy!

I LOVE the Land's End suits because you can get them with a built in bra or underwire. I am busty and when I start losing weight after surgery support is going to be key if I want to keep my boobs up off my belly ;) when I was quite a bit thinner I loved their board shorts with mix and match tops. They also don't shift or ride up. I would also love to know of other places with cute suits with built in bra support. I am planning on stocking up on some cute suits once they start clearancing them so I have some for next winter.

Thanks, ladies! I ended up buying a few suits, shorts and tanks from Land's End. Best part is... They were 40% off!!! Can't wait to hit the pool!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
