  1. No harm in trying it out. Are you pre op or post op?
    Thanks! Yeah I've been overweight mostly my whole life but fit overweight. I ran 5 marathons above 200lbs. I've competed in numerous crossfit events I've just always had issues with portion size.

    My surgery is June 17

    I tried corset training after WLS. Honestly, weight loss did more for my body. Are you asking about gym waist trainers or corset training?
    Corset waist training is a body modification. The steel rods in the corset move your bones and internal organs over time.

    Gym waist trainers Are the equivalent of wearing a girdle to the gym.

    I was thinking more on the line of gym trainer.


  3. Hi, so I have a long history with them. It’s also a cultural thing and I have a whole collection. It’s a problem lol.
    After my surgery my doctor recommended a binder so I used one of my post pregnancy bands (Ive had 3 c sections) that was firm and it helped because I have a weak core and it also smoothed me out. It also makes me more aware of my posture. I have a few of the rubber ones with hooks, (my hubby calls them my bullet proof vests) And some are looser than others so I would start with those and as you get used to it build up to those that offer more compression. Also, if you suffer from heartburn it can make it worse. But you don’t eat as much, I find I feel full quicker so I can eat light meals and not feel as hungry if that makes sense. I think it’s all personal preference. I do love how they make me look and like I said I have all types for different outfits/weather.
    Thanks so much!
