I was just wondering if anyone has tried any alternative to getting plastic surgery, such as any type of compression clothing, girdles, etc. Do these work at all? Obviously, the summer time would be a problem, but at least in the winter I could look better?

I think a lot of people who have loose skin over here use things made of spandex, its good for keeping loose skin tighter but if its more than skin then i would think more support would be necessary like u would get in a girdle. I have a lot of spare skin and weat tummy control leggings till i can get a TT.

I just hate all that stuff because it feels like punishment! I will wear a Spanx on a very special occasion for a very special dress...but to wear it on a regular basis would make me feel like the fat girl I used to be!

I wear a "control" tank under my shirt every single day. Now I feel uncomfortable without one, like I'm flopping around (much like what I feel like without a bra).
