bathing suits that cover hanging skin



Recommended Posts

Hi Friends, I have lost about 50lbs. I am struggling with how my arms and legs look. I did know that things would start to sag. It really is bothering me. I am very self conscious about this. I have a "beach weekend" planned with the girls next month. Do any of you have a website where I can buy a bathing suit that covers some of this???

What exactly are you looking to cover? If it's arms then get a surfing suit which is long sleeved. If it's legs then you can get a swim dress.

Swim dress or skirt. Not sure how you would hide the arms but I do know many people now wear those scuba type shirts/tees to swim in to better cover their bodies from the sun as seen in these pics at the link........

Wow! I didn't even know a swim shirt exsisted! My eyes have been opened. 👀 I've bought from WW before but never even looked at swimsuits.

And that was just one place off the top of my head. I know there are other sites who sell them too. Other stores be it plus or otherwise. Good luck!!

I have a swim shirt and I love it because I burn super easy on my shoulders and chest and it's the ultimate sun screen. Mine is like the swimtee mentioned above. I've never seen the jacket ones!

Something else I really like....is body make up. I get Sally Hansen airbrush leg makeup. I use it on my legs and my arms and shoulders. It makes me look tan without being orange, and provides a lot of coverage for scars, old stretchmarks, weird skin areas like the underside of upper arms...lol You can swim in it for about an hour without it coming off. You scrub it off at the end of the day with soap....it is not an artificial tanner product, so it won't leave you with weird dirty looking knees and ankles. The color looks tremendously natural. I love it.

I also like the "slimsuit" brand of swim suits....they have more support built in to kinda sculpt me into the best lines possible.

I went the swim shirt & shorts route. I’m very fair so the more sun protection the better for me.

Another site to check out is junoactive.com

It's more costly than WW but higher quality. I've found WW swim wear to be low quality material that was quite thin and wore out quickly.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
