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.

        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.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
