I've been working out pretty intensely and I've gained quite a bit of muscle. My thighs and fitting into the drysuit are my main concern. I've lost the ability to comfortable put on my fins and at this rate I will soon lose much of my leg mobility in the water. Would it be possible to send the drysuit in to Bare and have them enlarge the thigh area a couple inches?
 
You can ask, but I bet the general advice will be to get a custom suit.

One of the reasons I moved to Fusion suit. Cant comment on enlarging the tight area, sounds like trouble.
 
A lot of things are possible, but they might not be a good idea. And this seems likely to be one of those. But I've had work done by Steve Gamble and he's very good and reasonably priced. If he doesn't want to do it there is probably a good reason not to try it.
 
Please post what you discover. Many folks will find it informative.
