Ladies swimsuits

Just wanted to drop in and give you all an update. I did find a really cute Land's End swimsuit at Sears. Thanks for the tip! They had a lot of cute ones. I actually fit into a (get this) size 8 bottom!!! Wowzer!! That's a first for me - I ended up getting the size 10 because the skirt was about 1-1/2 inch longer and with these flabby thighs - I really needed the 1-1/2 inches! The top was racing back style which was much more flattering than the halter style (had a little extra fabric to hide those skin rolls!. Anyway, if anyone is looking, go to Sears!

I found one at Walmart that I just love. It is a deep shade of purple blue, one piece with a short skirt (wrap around). I like that it shows off my flatter tummy (if you cannot see the loose skin), hides my flabby thighs and butt, and fits without making me feel like a stuffed sausage. And it was less than $50.00. ~Cyndi

Hi Karen, I've decided to go with a board short style. It comes down about 2-3 inches on my thigh, doesn't hide all my saggy thigh skin, but most of it. I looked everywhere for something that would fit, but most are made for junior sizes. I finally found something second hand (ew, I know, not how I wanted to buy a bathing suit, but desperate times call for desperate measures). I am pairing it with a tankini top that covers my lovely underarm rolls on my back. How come they haven't sagged down to my belly area like everything else has???? I also heard that Land's End is now customizing bathing suits, you pick what you want for each section of the suit and submit your measurements, they create it for you. I haven't checked it out yet, but it sounds great. I don't know what the cost it though. Lori
