    I fit in one just fine. Its the scars and stretch marks that prevent me from being comfortable enough to wear one in public.

    I told myself that I would consider a two piece (not just bikini but tankini what have you) when I was out of the plus sizes and into the XL of the normal size range. Well I'm here, and I still won't wear a two piece. I'm just not comfortable and ready yet.

    Maybe when i'm down another two sizes I will revisit it. Maybe I won't feel comfy until I'm at my goal weight. Maybe I will never feel fully comfortable (however I do miss my bikini teen and early 20s so I think at some point I will get comfortable.)...

    but really it's about feeling good in your own skin more than it's about a number.

    Just bought one last week for my trip to Jamaica in June. I currently wear between a size 10-12.

    I'm currently 190 and I don't look hideous in one. I"m still not commiting to wearing it on the beach. I think that if I can tone up a bit more maybe, but it's a difficult question. I'm a size 10/12 and I can't figure that out because the Numbers are so off!!!

    I can't tell if i look good in one or not. I'm my own worst enemy!

    I want one but for gardening so I can even out my farmer's tan lines while putting out my veges and flowers. Thankfully, nobody has to see me besides my husband.

    Oh, round about June, I suppose. I'm 5'3", 200 pounds, and I will be seeking out a suit that flatters my figure in the next couple weeks.


    I have one that I like to use for photos, but it's not flattering.. it just shows my progress well.

    One pieces look bad on me so I wore a bikini when I was size 18. They is always going to be someone worse than you. Just go for it and be proud I say.

    I own one. I've only worn it in public 1 time and that was far, far out in a boat lol. I think I'm comfortable being in one but like one of the above posters it's the stretch marks...I'm starting Jillian Michaels Body Revolution in May and hoping that will help me tone and tighten my stomach so that I can rock the stretch marks and not mind at all!

    I've always worn one. Owning a pool, I wear a bikini or nothing at all. :blushing:

    I wore a bikini at 175 lbs in Vegas with no shame. My BFF commented on how jealous she was of my confidence. That's what people saw, not my jiggles.

    But you do need to find the right bikini and a sexy coverup too.

    When I was a size 6 I wore a bikini and size 8 I was fine wearing a tankini. Now, I wouldn't dream of it until I lose some more weight.

    Go for it! I am not brave enough to wear one at my current weight but I wore them proudly when I was about your size.
