I love that I'm losing but my skin (especially my thighs) is particularly sad. It's one of those moments where you think, at least when I was heavier I didn't have wrinkles or loose skin! Anyway, aside from a wet suit, has anyone found a bathing suit that helps with this? I live in South Florida so it's summer all year round and I need help covering up! I would love to flatter what I have and not look like I stole an old lady's suit if at all possible.

Rocking a bikini. Loose skin and all!

I need something that covers me just past my knees, so I am going with this:

If you can get away with something to the knee or shorter, maybe something like this:

I also have flabby thighs at the moment. I live in Florida too, so I understand wanting to have a bathing suit. I bought a bikini bottom that has a skirt on it and that seems to work for the moment. I also just wear shorts that I'm comfortable getting wet. The two suggestions from Amazon in the earlier post look like great ideas too.

Also, now that it's summer again I'm tan and I have to say, tan fat looks better than pale fat. :) Just be careful of course with the amount of sun exposure...we don't want skin cancer. :)

I wear a sheer wrap skirt or a cover up over my suit if I'm out of the pool for long.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
