I didn't know they made Spanx in plus sizes either. I am going to give them a try;sweaty Florida or not. I hate the jiggles.

I gots mines at Lane Bryant. I'm pretty sure I was in their biggest size which IIRC is "F". How appropriate.

I haven't worn them in a while. Though I'm sure they'd still fit me.

Random thought: I don't know about y'all but I can't wait to get the point where I don't need a Spanx anymore!...... As a matter of fact any undergarment thats used to hide my rolls' date=' back fat, butt jiggle , tummy, and any other jiggly part of my body..... When that day comes I'm gonna burn them and celebrate!!!!![/quote']

Tell me about it geeish. Spanx and already sweating just to get in them don't mix.I love in a hot state TX. Its hot almost year round. Different events, I attend, I would try 2 make myself skinny.

My sorority takes lots of pictures at different events we attend ...boy do I try to avoid the camera. It seems find me lol. When I see the pics im like dang I look the biggest. My surgery is june 26. I can't wait 2 get in front of the camera.

Our pictures are on Facebook and other things. I use 2 be so embarrassed.

I have these leather pants I had when I was 21. Size 10. Im 32 now. I saved them. Im determine 2 get in those bad boys. I don't care if its 80 degrees.

Best Wish

I have to wear Spanx shorts with skirts and dresses but it's not as much for smoothing things out as it is for preventing "chub rub" aka my thighs rubbing together. I can already tell my excess skin is going to build up on my inner thighs so I will probably always need them. However, I do have some Spanx camis for lifting my boobs and flattening my midsection... those can be thrown on the fire!

I actually prefer wearing them in the heat... I like a layer of protection between my underwear and clothes so there are no sweat marks.

FYI: I prefer regular Shapewear to Spanx. I don't find the actual "Spanx" brand to do much for me. I have old shapewear from Lane Bryant (they don't have much in their own brand now, mostly Spanx) and some new stuff from Avenue and Fashion Bug. (Plus, store brands are cheaper.) They smooth things out much more but aren't any less comfortable than Spanx.

Onestopplus.com or avenue.com carries a tummy/thigh shaper called "easy up, easy down firm thigh slimmer" that is fantastic. I have tried so many over the years that just would not get over my abdomen without tying me in a knot...but this particular shaper goes up like a dream and it keeps everything firm and tight. I bought a few and they are perfect for working out too. It also does not roll up or down, it stays put. It's about $30 but worth every penny!! Comes in black or nude. :D

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
