    Mychocolatediet said it much better than I could. For me it has nothing to do with showing midriff vs not. I was almost hestitant to voice my opinion of this one in fear of her thinking that but I genuinely liked the suit a lot.

    I really don't think the majority of people told her to wear a one piece at all. I hope she didn't feel shamed.

    The first suit-The top looks great on you, very flattering. The bottoms look a little too small, not as flattering. You don't look horrifying by any means :)

    The polka dot suit-Amazing!!! You look so much smaller!! Definitely wear this one :)

    I am not offended by any comments. when I bought the first one I did feel good in at (at first). It seems like a picture and mirror tell me different stories and when I saw pics I was like "yikes!!!". maybe I was jumping the gun going with a bottom like that. I have not wore a bottom like that in many years. Like I said, even the bigger size didnt really do it for me. I need to work on inner thighs and tummy more to feel comfortable in that type of bottoms. I feel alot more comfortable in the new one. Granted my husband wants me to show more skin, I'm just not ready. (not in public places anyways :)

    I LOVE the black and white. You do look a few sizes smaller in the new bathing suit too...not that it matters but you do!

    Okay I love the new suit , cute polka dots, I wonder what the old bottoms would like like with this adorable top. Kudos to you on your loss!! Stay classy MFP.

    Hi. I think you look great and congratulations on losing the weight. Just an idea, I bought a skirt to go over my bathing suit last summer. It looks like a tennis skirt. I like wearing it over my swim suit as it hides the top of the flabby legs. The one I bought was at Costco, but they only have it at certain times of the year. You could use it as a cover up and take it off if you wanted to get more sun! Again, congratulations and you look great!
  • The second suit you posted is perfect, much more flattering to your figure!

    I am surpised by is the sentiment in this forum that you need to be perfectly skinny, and 100% pudge free to wear a bikini. News Flash! Bikinis come in large sizes because people can wear whatever the hell they want. Plenty of plus sized women wear full on string bikini's and feel plenty confident. Sure some people might give them the side eye, but obviously they feel happy and could not care less. I guess I just don't agree with a rule that says you CAN'T show midriff unless your tummy looks like X or you HAVE to wear a sarong if your thighs look like Z. Because no...you don't. Some silouettes more socially acceptable for certain body types and others can be more slimming but in the end, do what makes YOU ffeel sexy. Eff everyone else.

    NO. Just NO. I live by the beach and do we see some sights! If you don't have the figure to look really fabulous in a bikini, please do the world a favour and go for a one piece or a tankini. Just my opinion.

    Here by the cold Atlantic, a neck-to-ankle neoprene wetsuit is a must if you want to be in the water for any length of time anyhow... :laugh: Water temperature at the moment =10 Celsius / 50 Fahrenheit
