Ladies, do you have a 2 piece or a 1 piece? Tankini? Bikini? Full coverage? Men, speedo (I'm not laughing... I'm not laughing.. LOL)? Or do you wear cut off shorts? An actual pair of swim trunks?

I wear an all-in-one pirce swim suit. It had one of those reinforced pannels to help flatten your tummy and hold any wobbly bits in, and support for the bust area too. A bikini/tankini just wouldn't hold all my wobbling bits in i'm afraid!

I wear a 1 piece- It has extra coverage in the bust area- We play alot of pool volleyball and run around in our suits- gotta have support! I love mine I got it at Penneys- Cost was like $100 but I went on a friends and family day and had a coupon got it for around $45. I have too many strecth marks on my tummy (darn pregnancy) for a bikini--- plus I wouldn't feel comfortable!

I actually think even a lot of thinner women look best in one piece suits, simply to cover up the flaws, etc. But ya know, to each his/her own. If you're happy in it... go for it. LOL

OMG, after 5 kids, I wouldn't dream of wearing a 2 piece. LOL. I did lose 30 pounds. but still not enough for bikini city.

I have a 2 piece, but it's a tankini, so I have full coverage. I bought my husband a pair of swim trunks cause he was always wearing regular shorts to go swimming, and now he wears the swim trunks as regular shorts! haha Go figure! lol

I usually have a bikini top and trunks. This year I think I am going for a tankini. Oh and thanks for ruining my appetite with the vision of a speedo. :=)

LMAO.... oh I know... I'm not sure who ever told regular guys that speedos look good.. but if you're not built to no end you do NOT need to be tucking that gut over and under in a speedo! LOL Just like I would never wear a bikini and there are many others out there on the beach with way too much junk in the trunk to be wearing one too! LOL

I like a one piece with a skirt to cover my hips and thighs. I think Speedos should be outlawed for men over 30 or over 150 lbs, whichever comes first.

During my recent beach and swimming activities, i wear two-piece swimsuit with board shorts. I live in a pretty conservative country so removing the board shorts and swimming in just the 2-piece is still kind of taboo. Although a lot of girls now are doing it. =)

I wear 2 piece swimming suits. I prefer the bottoms that look like little shorts, but I will wear the bikini kinds too. If I think the swimsuit is cute I will get it, no matter what bottoms they have! :)

WEll with me it is a one piece lol. That is because after having three kids the stretch marks are just out of this world. I did find a neat two piece on that is kind of like a tank top and a pair of shorts that meet in the middle i am gonna try this year seeing as how i lost all kinds of weight i kinda what to show of stretch marks and all. They are fading a bit i have been using creams on them and i believe the weight lose helped i dont think you will ever see me in a bikini though i am to self conscious for that. lol

I have many two pieces and many one piece but I prefer one piece they are more confortable to swim at least for me. Then I think that one piece is more elegant.

I wear a one piece suit full coverage to help hide the junk in my trunk. My husband wears trunks. We swim almost every weekend.

An actual pair of swim trunks. I also do have a speedo for in the swimming pools which do not allow swimming trunks out of so called hygiene reasons though, but tend to avoid those because it's really annoying to wear them.
