bathing suit options

Just wondering if anyone has tried using swim forms in a Lands End suit that has removable cups.  I saw a few on sale (tankinis) and was wondering if it was worth trying,  I figured I could remove the cup on one side and put my form in that side.

No, but i finally found a bathing suit I can wear and of all places at walmart.  I am less than an A cup but wear a size 16.  The bust forms on the bathing suit are firm and don't sink in or blow up in the water.  It is like a miracle suit.  Can't tell you how many I have tried.

Somewhere on the board I read about someone that used those scrubbies like you get for a dollar at walmart.  They are light weight and dry fast.

I like swim suits with removable cups. My reconstructed side needs help so what I do is remove the cup from my real side and leave it in the reconstruted side. That's almost perfect for me.

I think if your form is light (I can't remember how big you are) and you don't need the extra high neck/side arm coverage that it might be worth a try.

As I recall you have a large swimsuit wardrobe!

Yes, Rose...you have remembered correctly!  I am the one with the large swimsuit and bra wardrobe!    I am also pretty small so you are right on that one too.  I just ordered one with removable cups so I hope it works.  I actually got rid of a bunch of suits a few weeks ago.  Now that I am on Femara I have noticed that they don't fit quite as well as they did last year.  Arrgh.
