I would go for this solution if you have a two piece tolit.
I think it's my warped perspective......

"You may have a problem with the seat." The toilet seat ???
"The part the flapper covers." OK, no need to get personal. I know I'm a bit overweight, but ...
"I have had this problem." YIKES.... sounds serious
"As best I can recall I think I purchased something that fit into the seat and sealed it then the flapper on top of that." OUCH....sounds painful! Are you OK now?

Sorry RJM1CC, your advice is very sincere, it just struck me funny as I read it... I think I need another glass of wine or maybe I need to go on a diet
