I don't know in what world 117 pounds could possibly look fat, but I'm living in that world. Bought my first new suits in 3 years. Looks like someone slapped a swimsuit on a sea lion.

I totally get it. I know I am thin. But sometimes certain things...especially swimsuits make me feel like I am still obese. Most likely because certain materials are unforgiving. Swimsuit materials are snug and make our loose skin squish out in weird ways. So...it took me forever to find one that I liked the way it looked on my butt and legs. It's all about the right cut. Hang in there.
Katrina, kinda know how you feel -- but it's the mind's eye playing tricks on you --
Maybe one of us will get brave and post a photo, lol!
I'll be brave. Look at those chonk legs and flabby belly. It's better with shorts and standing up .

I think you look pretty doggone good! You are being quite hard on yourself -- and if one of us posted the same photos, you'd be first to sy we looked good! Not sure how old you are, but I'd be wowed to look like that! (Gravity at 66 is not necessarily my best friend).
Maybe a one piece would make you feel mores comfortable?
Hmm, maybe I'll try this next time
Thanks for the kind words, you guys. Swim suit season is rough!
