So I'm almost 5 weeks out and have lost 20 lbs. While trying on a smaller-sized skirt today (it fit) I found that I now have...gasp...muffin tops! - a result of the butt (and legs) getting smaller but the waist/middle/belly still thick. Sigh... Now I need to start wearing a shaper and start doing "whittle my waist" exercises... goodbye 20 lbs, hello Spandex!!

congrats on your progress!!

i wear my spanx all the time ive had a massive muffin top for so long and now im down 41 and it feels so good to be able to FIT into spanx! lol

I really like the tank top style spandex.... that scoops below the bra. Have the Secret Solutions ones from Woman Within. I see they have another style there too that is $10 less by Comfort Choice. Anyhow, it works great for the muffin top AND it makes the girls stand out a little more. The Secret Solutions one goes down to where the leg joins the hip, so pretty far - and it doesn't leave a line either.

AND... there seem to always be coupon codes for 50% off, etc., if you just Google Woman Within.
