I found a cute tankini at Old Navy, I ordered it (I wore a tankini from them last year, I loved it.. now it's so big on me, you can see right up the shorts).. They only sent me the top. It was new. When I called to tell them I only got the top, he said THEY ARE SOLD OUT OF IT. You can imagine my disappointment. So he said to send it back with a note about them only sending me the top, and get a refund. Then he gave me a 10% discount code.. so I ordered another tankini from them in another pattern.

Came back from vacation on Sunday, and wore my old size 22/24 bathing suit from last summer. Went shopping on Friday because it rained and tried on a size 20, and low and behold, it fit!!:hurray::wink:

The price was right too, at Bealls Outlet in FLA, $29.99 with 20% off, so total with tax was $25.68.:smile:

Got to love a swim suit that looks good and is not expensive. woo hoo

congrats on the lower size too.

I have worn a suit every summer. I didnt care if I thought I looked fat or not. I figure if they didnt like it then dont look. lol

OH and heck if they couldnt tell I was fat in normal clothes then they were just too stupid for me to deal with lol

You know me in a swimsuit last summer is what pushed me to get the band. I was too embarrased to go swimming with my babies because of my weight. I'm down 33 lbs. so far and I know I'm going to have to buy a new suit, but I still dread it. Oh well, we will get there!!

I am gonna order me a bikini this summer...I promised my daughter that I would work my butt off at the gym(Planet fitness) to get into bikin shape by July! I know 55 lbs is alot to loose in 4 months but I can do it and still keep my Vitamins and Protein in me with my protein smoothies and tuna mush! LOL My tuna mush is white tuna whizzed in a food processor and add mayo and a little onion and it is SOOO GOOD! Plus drink a TON of Water...I work out 1 hour a day but gonna step it up to two hours:thumbup:

Even having lost this much weight, I am afraid I'd get arrested for indecent exposure if I were to attempt a bikini!!!! My belly skin would hang over the bottom, and I'd look nekkid....really ugly, saggy nekkid!!!

GO for it!!!

Sure, Gome out to the great waterpark with me. We have a blast noone thinks about how they look in a suit. We have too much fun for all that nonesence.

I have a favorite suit. it is a 2 piece. Tankini type. The bottoms is the type that suck the stomach in and the top hang down low enough to not show any skin and I can tuck the top in to the bottoms when I go in the wave pool so the top dosent come over my head lol...happened once.

But I love it. sucks everything in nicely and I buy extra bottoms because they wear out faster.

only 15 dollars for the bottoms. so I have a few pair. I think I will buy some more in smaller sizes in anticipation. lol

OH and the 2 pieces makes it easier to go to the bathroom lol

Bingo! Even at my highest, when Tankinis came out, that's all I wear. I hate hate hate having to go to the bathroom in a 1-piece. I always get the ones that the bottom holds in the gut, that are not bikini cut bottoms.. I like the shorts, that will cover my thighs.. but the tight ones, not the baggy ones.. and then a top that covers the bottom. Old Navy's plus size tankinis are really great! They're not too expensive, they fit great, and the built-in bra has underwire (a MUST for me).

I am so bummed....I just ordered a bathing suit tankini with board shorts size 16 (I am now in 12 or 14 pants) and it is too tight!!! What do I do, return and go for the 18 (UGHHH) or just keep trying to get into it for summer????

I really thought it would be fun and exciting to get a new suit....WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING, BATHING SUITS ARE NEVER FUN!!!!!

Thanks for letting me vent.

I've been looking forever for something. I am terrified of buying something, but I have a huge vacation planned this summer and will need one. I have 2 fat rolls on the top of my inner thigh. It looks like I have a butt in the front..I mean literally, a little butt on my legs. But a lot of the skirt swim suits don't cover down far enough to cover that. So I am looking into what I should get, plus I do wear a DD, but I can't wear under wires (they bruise me) and a lot of suits don't give me enough support with out under wires and the girls fall out...:smile2: yeah that happened once...thank god I was in Portugal and going topless is normal. Any way, if any one has any suggestions I'm all for it.

I bought 3 suits @ Casual Clothing, Swimwear, Outerwear and Home Products from Lands' End just recently. I love that I can buy a different size for the top vs the bottom...They're "reasonably" priced / they got that "miracle" factor going on. Hide the bumpity bumps & all. Suppose to be 90 in NTX tom, might have test drive one of those:) :smile2:

I wonder how large the cup size comes. lol

I prefer underwire but have a hard time finding one in DDD:confused2:
