Control top swim wear bottoms
Hello everyone
Hope everyone is doing well!
This will be a very personal question
I am down 22 lbs since RNY. Wednesday will be almost 4 weeks.
Down 45 in total since the start. I recently found these Faded Glory Jeggings at the Walmart in Ogdenburg. Size 16 so hard to believe. . Bought 2 pairs & they will be my transitional wear until the spring. Amazing support in the "muffin top" or should I say the whole "loaf top".
My question is does that over hang shrink back when the fat is gone. Probably going to have to have it removed some day.
Now looking for swim wear bottoms that have great control top.
I would buy a gurgle if it could pass off as swim wear....
Heard of Magic Suit but it is very scarce in Ottawa.
Any suggestions?
Sandra.

IN THE END WE ONLY REGRET CHANCES WE DIDN'T TAKE.
I second Lands End!!!
I wear the Women's Tugless One Piece Swimsuit in Tall Plus (which is not what you're looking for I know...) and the quality is fantastic! I wear them to swim at the pool regularly and have had no issues with chlorine or with washing them. They are very comfy. I can only imagine that there other products are just as good.
The Lands End customer service is also very good.. I got a free towel when I bought my suits but a few days later the suits went on for 40% off - one chat with the customer service rep and they credited me the difference!

Size 16; that's great!!!
I get my swimwear online because it's impossible to get any at all in town unless it's summer.
That's where I shop. They have a wide variety and most of the bottoms have a good amount of control, as long as they're made from a lycra mix.
