Old navy compression pants



Recommended Posts

How do they do with cottage cheese thighs, make it better? Emphasize it? Are they breathable, hot and miserable? I'm going to save them to my want list if they're good.

Thanks! I just ordered a couple of the running looking ones. I'm particularly excited about the grey/pink ones! I'm excited to try them on. :)

I have this one pair of calf length yoga leggings that fit so awesome and make me feel like I must look great! Until I saw myself in the mirror, they enhanced every little ripple and crater in my skin :wacko:

The new ones aren't that great, i think they are really thin and feel like pantyhose. I would go with Underarmour or Nike. Worth every penny. You can find great priced Nike at Penny's some weeks.

I love them! I have several pairs and they allow my skin to breathe. I hate workout pants that feel thick and show sweat spots in the crotch area. They aren't super tight but I don't like my workout pants to feel stiff so it works for me. I feel so slim when I put them on and they come up above the belly button and that's exactly what I need after having 3 kids. I can't wear low rise anything lol. They are fitted but not stiff and if you can do a split these will definitely allow you lol. Oh and I have cottage cheese legs and they look great on me.

Well I don't have Old Navy but I do have Flexees exercise pants...they look like this:

And at first I didn't wear them. It basically took all my excess skin/fat and pushed it up! Well then I figured out how to combat that. By wearing a Flexees tank like this:

And that helps smooth the lumps and bumps. The only thing I don't like about the leggings is I wish they were a tad longer (I'm 5'6") and I always feel like they are a bit on the short side. Other wise I really like them.

The best ever (IMO) are the Marika Tech mid-calf yoga leggings. The waistband is wide and comes all the way up to the navel but the trimming is low around the hips, giving you the best of high-waisted and low-rise :) The thickness of the fabric is perfect, thick enough to smooth everything out and absorb sweat, thin enough to stay sleek and not get in your way or make you overheat (an issue for me). Best ever!!

I work for Old Navy and they are actually having a sale on them right now. They make a thin version and a thicker version. There is a price difference. The grey/pink or the black/pink are some of the better quality ones, so good choice! :)

Ooh thanks. I think I ordered the black real too. The ones w the slit in the back had a review that said they were almost see through. And I took advantage of the sale. :)

Thanks for the tip about them being on sale! I went and bought a pair of capri length, just black. I think the sale has wiped out some of their stock so there was limited options. I'm wearing them right now and really like them!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
