Swinsuit season makes me so mad at myself

Because it makes me wish I had had my surgery six months earlier

Oh well. There's always next summer

I'm hoping to fit in a decent Halloween Costume lol

As long as you are losing, you are winning! And even at 20 pounds from goals, I can't imagine really loving my body in a swimsuit. I've tried on a few at the mall and all I can see is redundancy and saggage. But I look kinda great in clothes now, and you DEFINITELY have THAT to look forward to a little more each passing week & month! Best wishes!

I actually tried on a pair of shorts I bought two summers ago that were so tight I only wore them once. Two months ago I couldn't zip them. Tonight I put them on and had extra room. ????????

Me too. Costumes always make me so upset. The sizing on those things never work right.

I usually get frustrated and give up or sew my own

This year I plan on trying lots of them on at the store

I've lost 40+ pounds and have been trying on swimsuits, and still can't find one that looks halfway decent on me. My legs look awful with all the cellulite. I look so much better in regular clothes, so I'm thinking I might just not get a swimsuit this year. I'm supposed to go to a WLS support group pool party in two weeks, but I'm sure they will understand...lol.

I got a couple miracle suits on sale last week, they fit great but my skin looks awful!!! I also have the cellulite and jiggles, but I think I am going to get a wrap to wear around my waist to hide that, otherwise this body is ready for some sun!!!

I'm a fan of a cute retro skirted suit. Gives a little more coverage in the leg area.

I haven't bought a suit in years but bought one a few weeks ago. We bought a house 3 minutes from the lake and felt obligated to..LOL..I tried it on and was almost teary that I looked halfway decent in it...just simple shorts and cute top. Didn't care about the looseness of my arm skin and jiggles...It was truly amazing so carry on with all the clothing that we thought would once be impossible. I have a long way to go but dammit, I now own a bathing suit...

Girl, you better go to that pool party (in that bathing suit) and live your life! We've all hidden ourselves long enough!:)

I just got a new suit and my inner thighs are so gross ????. I love the weight loss but hate the way my legs look! I have a cover up but when you're at the beach you're not waist deep when the waves aren't there lol

I realize that I will not look awesome in a suit for quite awhile as I've only lost 55lbs, so my goal is to look great in a tank and wear a pair of shorts and not have them ride up the inner thighs Everytime I step!
