    I think you look hot and if I was your husband I'd be happy to be seen in public with you and that bikini. If you are happy with it, wear it and enjoy!

    The bottoms look about two sizes too small, I would return them for a more comfortable fit. Other than that, congratulations, and you definitely should wear a swimsuit! Good job on your hard work.

    I like the top but I prefer boy shorts or skirts on the bottom.
    I agree!

    Agree with those saying the top is ok but the bottoms are too small.
    I think shorts would look better with a top like that anyway.

    ^^ this, just get the next size up, its no sweat, you'll feel better for it you don't want it to be uncomfortable

    You wanted honest so ... I think if you are going to wear it this weekend, you should probably wear something else. Its cute but the top bunches up in the middle and that makes it short. Therefore, it looks to small. I agree about the bottoms as well, they are a bit small for you at this time.

    But again, If are comfy, wear it. I dont think you are though since you asked strangers for their honest opinion.

    If you husband thinks it looks great who the heck cares what the rest of the world thinks. Wear it and be proud. Enjoy the day at the beach, no matter what you wear.

    Honestly. I don't think it's helping you. It kind of looks like it's squeezing your tummy fat. I would find something that doesn't show midriff at this point because I think it will be more flattering.

    Without violating the forum's rules, I will just politely ask you and everyone else who believes this nonsense to please stop the skinny bashing, and remember that "real women" have 2 X chromosomes, no matter what shape they happen to be!!!!!!!!!!!

    Plenty of real women have only one or more than two X-chromosomes as well.

    Oh good God, are you really going to nit pick me here???

    I would hope you understood the point of what I said without the need to have to say this.................................

    I like the top, I like the pattern and colors. But not the bottoms. For those type of top, I like the skirted bottoms. It looks more balanced to me.

    So much this.

    Personally, I like a snug boy short because they manage to make a less than magazine cover @ss look good! I find them to be forgiving and flattering all at the same time.

    That being said, wear what YOU like!

    please stop with this 'real women' crap. there are 'real' women who do not have curves i.e. do not have much of a body shape like keira knightly and who are naturally that way. to infer that they are not 'real women' is extremely rude and short sighted.

    I am being 100% honest when I say I think it looks fine and you should wear it. It's your body and you're looking good. No one else has a right to judge you for it. That's just my opinion though!

    Darling, you have lost 30 pounds and that is amazing, and I think you look fabulous! Confidence is key - if you can rock it, then rock it! But if you feel self concious, I'd say to ditch it and wait a little longer until you feel as good as you look. I don't think your bottoms are too small at all, but I do believe that perhaps a different cut would look better on you - perhaps a scoop bottom, not a string? Even the skinniest of us get a muffin top with a string bikini! Keep going girl, you are amazing!

    Congrats on your weight lost! You are beautiful :)

    The bikini... I'm going to say no. It is too small. The top is riding up your back and the bottoms too tight. I really think you could rock a one piece.

    Looks fine to me. It's the beach. People are practically naked no matter what. What difference does a couple of extra inches of skin make between the tankini and a one piece? If only perfect people showed skin, the beach would be pretty lonely.

    Cherio ...Congrats are the weight you'v lost to date! You are doing amazing.

    As for this suit, at this time I think the top is fine, I believe the bottoms are too small.

    ^This. The top looks FANTASTIC in my opinion! The bottoms seem a bit snug. A size bigger on the bottoms or maybe a different cut would be more flattering. But still, I think that you look fine! It's totally okay to wear in public, if you ask me! If you feel comfortable in it, rock it out, girl!

    i think the OP looks nice but you can get really really cute one pieces. ive just been on vacation and my friend brought along the cutest one pieces - one with a tiger print on, and the other with a floral design and little flowey skirt. so cute

    Absolutely agree, and I am a curvy woman. I hate that phrase. Real women come in ALL shapes and sizes... period.

    The top looks fine, but I would give it about 10 more lbs before you wore the bottom. How you feel in it is what matters though.

    The cut of the tankini top is great. The pattern isn't great, because the yellow x makes it look like your tummy is much wider than it actually is. I also think that going up a size in bottoms and/or looking at a boycut leg would be a good idea.

    For the people suggesting a 1-piece, some of us pear-shaped women have a terrible time finding them to fit both the top and lower parts of the torso while still fitting. It's either too big on top or too small on the bottom.

    If you're happy, wear the bathing suit :) It's your happiness that counts. Congratulations on losing 30lbs - it looks great on you. Your skin is glowing.

    I agree that the bottoms are on the small side. I have horrible love handles and also tend to have issues with bottoms. =/ If I want them to stay up they squish my love handles.

    I can attest to this!

    Before I lost the majority of my fat...and before my boobs were enhanced...I was a definite pear and had serious issues with buying a one-piece or even a dress. I had to wear tops with skirts because the tops were always smaller. Finding something that fit the bottom half left extra loose material on top every time for me. I think the only one piece bathing suits that I ever wore when I was a pear shape were made by Speedo because of the way they are cut. But, unless you find those on sale, they are quite pricey when all you wanna do is have a weekend at the beach.

    I love the top and think it looks fabulous on you! That is my honest opinion. I agree that maybe one size up for the bottoms but they make your legs look super long! You look incredible!

    When did curves = fat? To me curvy was people with Rachel Bilson type bodies. However now people always refer bigger women to having curves.
