Hello all. I started swimming for the first time in my life about a year and a half ago. As such I am very slow, but that is ok with me. I recently swam in my first masters meet and it was a lot of fun. I however need some suggestions on type of suit. I currently wear a baggy recreational suit, and my coach says time to upgrade. Since I have lost 70 pounds in the last year, (but still have all the skin) a speedo is out of the question, what I need is a comfortable but yet snugger fitting suit. Maybe just a better recretional suit? Your suggestions appreciated.

Loose skin is more than an appearance thing. I am betting you will go faster in a suit that provides some compression/motion control. 70# is very admirable. A lot of guys seemed to like the old Speedo S2000 suits for meets - full torso, back zipper.
The triathlete unitard suits ... gee, those are expensive ...
Note that the FastSkins are not meant for daily wear, they are not durable.
