Summer body question

Hi everyone. I wanted to get everyones opinion on something. I'm 24 yrs old, 5'6 and 197 pounds. I wear a size 12. I know I wear my weight good because no one ever guesses my correct weight. they all think I'm 170 to 175. I wish I was that weight. I have a small waist but very large breast. I wear a size 36 DDD/E bra. I have been working out lately and my stomach has shrunk a good amount and toned.

My question is, do you think that I am too big two wear a two piece swimsuit to the beach?

My mom was able to find me a cute two piece that a) is my exact size for up top and b) has a cute skirt bottom with a belt so that even as I lose weight I can adjust the bottoms! It was on sale so I brought them, but at the time I didn't feel that my body was good enough to wear it. I've worked out like crazy since then, and though I haven't lost weight I've lost inches and have toned. I tried on the swimsuit the other day and I don't think I looked that bad, especially since my stomach has flattened and obliques are waaaaay smaller. I've seen 10 times worse bodies in bikinis. But still, I wanted everyones opinion. I've NEVER worn a two piece before so for me this is a pretty big deal.

" Thanks everyone! Next time I go to the beach I think I will wear it! It probably won't be until a couple weeks when it gets warmer, so until then I will still be working out so hopefully I can shed a couple more pounds and tone some more! "

" I say go for it!

I have the same body type. Nearly impossible to find a 2 piece in the right size. I found one this year too ;). "
