Hi ladies,

I’m 3.5 months post op and down 40lbs, and I’m going on a cruise in early May for the first time. I need a new swimsuit, but since I’m only 40lbs down, I’m still facing the same issue when shopping for a swimsuit: my thighs.

There are so many cute swimsuits out there, but I have very large thighs that rub together and chafe. It’s also cellulite city around there and I prefer to keep them covered up.

Does anyone know of any swimsuits with longer bottoms? Maybe even like longer shorts? That might be a long shot but I’d thought I’d ask around

I hope this is the case for me! I have a lot to loose. I’d need to surpass the estimated 70% excess weight for a RNY. But I’m 5’4. Ideally I’d love to be a size 6. I think that would be appropriate for my height.

That 70% is an average and includes everyone from those who gain it all back to those who reach a healthy weight. Control is in your hands.

I lost more than 100% of my excess weight with the sleeve.

Wow[emoji195]The Easter Bunny and I think,YOU and the 100% weight loss are WONDERFUL

I've got a skirt style swimsuit and while they look better on and conceal stomach hang, they do billow around you in the water like a small parachute which can be a bit embarrassing. If you don't have bad stomach hang I'd recommend board shorts
