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!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
