Kinda Nasty - Help Me BAF Family

I am going on a 7 day cruise for my 35th wedding anniversary. Gotta do the swimsuit thingy so now the two other couples are going with us will see the (nasty part) saggy skin on my thighs at the crouch. I know I can't work any miracles in a month but does anyone have any suggestions, tricks, ideas. I want to look as good as possible and wear as little as possible.
It's so strange, never worried about showing the fat full but my saggy skin looks worst than full fat.
Just a little nervous. The other couples are smaller and know about my surgery.
I'll take this saggy skin over the full fat any day of the week but hate seeing it. Plastics are comming. Z

With I will succeed.

Try a tankini or swim dress. You'd be surprised at what they can cover up.

And happy (early) anniversary!

I just recommend getting a pretty scarf to wear around your waist or a cute cover up. This worked for me when I went to the Bahamas with a size 6 friend. Have a great trip!
