Can you suggest a style of bathing suit for my boyfriend. He is suffering from a hernia and has to lose some more weight.

Hello Nancy Laycoe,
It is good to know you are remaining active during this trying period. Please be sure to take it easy to prevent further injury. I am thinking of compression clothing; but, speak with your doctor for personalized instructions. Here is a site I found that may be helpful:
