I've always hated wearing a swim suit, even after I transitioned into maintenance and was at a lower weight. Then I found an amazing swimsuit that was very flattering to my figure (I found it at a thrift shop for $2, lol). I love how I look in it and have gotten so many compliments! I'd suggest spending some time looking for a swim suit that you love, it can make such a difference in how you feel going to the beach The one I have is a retro style, one piece, and it's very flattering-similar to these (I've never bought from this site, just using it to show examples) https://www.unique-vintage.com/coll...piece-swimsuits
