Swimming shirts/wet suit



Recommended Posts

What are you guys wearing to the beach or pool after you have lost some considerable amount of weight but have not had skin removal and the skin has not tightened.

I lost about a hundred pounds so far, still have a few more to go but I'll be going to Florida in about 6 months and I'll be going to many pools this spring/summer with my newborn. Are there any decent swim wet shirts or wet suits shirts that do a decent job hiding imperfections such as loose skin, still some fat and moobs?

I am not a fan of regular t-shirts because they get so heavy, stretch out and suction to your body. I get wet suits clings to your body but if it hides imperfections then it's worth it. Regular Ts def do not.

What about a rash guard? I always made my son wear one so he didn’t get burned. They are like compressive tees

I third, plus most have SPF to protect your skin, too.

Ditto, rash-guards are what you are looking for.

Thanks I'll look in to them. Does any one have any suggestions on best brands and places to go and try them on?

I wear a swim "shirt". It is short sleeved and it has a nice V neck and singe sides for added style. It isn't tight like a rash guard which I like. I bought mine from Lands End a few years ago.

Old navy has a couple really cute ones this season! Although, it was in the plus section. Not sure where you all are right now.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
