Swim Shorts

I can totally relate, Shan - my thighs are by far my worst area on my body - I think somebody said 'shar-pei thighs'? Oh yeah, I'm there - I bought bike shorts to wear - they're stretchy and almost go down to my knees - and very comfortable. And then I invested in a GOOD tankini top from Lands End because they have actual underwire bra tops in different cup sizes, and since the girls are as droppy as wet tube socks they actually give me a bustline again!!

I definitely like the idea of board shorts, too - that's a great tip - I ordered my bike shorts from Woman Within and I think they were $15. Sadly most swim shorts that are out there for women are SHORT and don't cover a whole lot.
