Bathing Suits



Recommended Posts

I went on an anniversary trip to FL last month--I'm not at goal, but I have definitely shrunk out of last summer's suits. So I went to Kohls and found one (size 18--not 18 W--yeah!). It was fine for my trip. But yesterday I wore it to the pool for a lap swim...it was a nightmare! I guess I've gone down another size, because my boobages kept trying to make an escape! LOL. I need something that will hold.them.in.

Just to update...I ordered two tankinis (push-up/slimming) and a slimming swim mini w/a cute side slit from Lands End. I also ordered a high waisted/slimming/side shirred w/strings brief from JC Penneys. I ordered 1 size down based on my current measurements & how I've been losing...I'm only 20 lbs from goal. My vacation is in June :). It is so nice to be able to choose cute regular sized swimsuits! And I'm totally excited to look & feel sexy!

I got one on swimsuitsforall.com. It's a one piece with some support. They have lots on there, may be worth a look.

The prices are reasonable, too. I wasn't going to pay $75 for one in the store...

Lands End has some very nice suits. I am pre-op and still get mine from Woman Within. I am looking forward to going back to Lands End and to being able to order more than accessories from Swell.

I've bought several swimsuits from Swimsuitforall and one from Land's End. Land's End does a great post holiday sale. Swimsuitforall I get my suits for Water aerobics. I buy the kirnkle suits. They are the best for an active Water aerobics class. The suits have nice support inside and good, sturdy built in bras. The krinkle fabric holds up to the chlorine better than any chlorine resistant suit.

@@Inner Surfer Girl, THATS where I bought my swim bra from -Woman Within! Love it, holds the girls up, and can wear it under any suit I have.

I just picked up a swim bra from BCCOutlet for $7. I'm getting a swim unitard and I wasn't sure how supportive the bra section would be.

Lands End is also my absolute go to for swim suits! I love they have underwire options for dd + cups. It gives amazing support because my boobs just aren't perky anymore ;) and their suits have enough compression to hold me without feeling like I can't breath.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
