Compression/Shapewear... again

Since plastics, I don't really need muffin top control but i feel the need to wear tight things around my midsection to support myself for exercise. I also still get some swelling (post plastics issue). Spanx just doesn't cut it, I need something a bit more targeted. Anyway, I am experimenting but decided to order a few things:

Will let you know how they work out, but most curious what others are using. I want to take skiing lessons and feel a real need for something to "hold me together" as I tumble down the mountain. :)

  • Thank you for posting the websites. I am very early on, but I know I will need some heavy duty control in my stomach area. How often do you wear yours? I see a variety of different answers on this.

Okay, I bought:

http://www.herroom.com/rago-6265-pant-liner.shtml

It was comfy and worked great going skiing. i don't need to hold extra skin anymore, but I am about 11 weeks post plastics and still feel like I need something holding me together. I felt like I could have used a bit more compression, but it was comfortable for stuff where you really need to move. Will use it for horseback riding too.

Just ordered:

It is supposed to be a firmer compression, so not sure yet,

I returned this item

http://www.herroom.com/felina-7643-essentials-seamless-hidden-wire-bustier-bra.shtml

because my waist actually measured bigger with it on! It has such thick layers of fabric, it defeated the purpose.

CGJ do you think those you just ordered would feel comfortable with our lady parts? I hate it when my jeans are snug in that area. Sorry if TMI. :P

Well, the long pants I bought are very comfy and do not apply undue pressure anywhere. We'll see about the new ones. Thanks for the link - always good to check out new stuff!

Okay, I got the next pair of compression capris from herroom. I like them too.

Model Rago 6265 are very comfy, fairly light /med hold but perfect for wearing skiing or horseback riding or working out under other pants. They actually kind of look like capri pants so I wear black undies under them (they have the split crotch) so I can take ski pants off and jeans on in the parking lot and not feel like an exhibitionist. I would not wear them to the gym without something over them, but at home working out they are fine by themselves.

Model Rago 6269 - much firmer control, fabric is slightly scratchier and it is sheer looking so definately not for changing in public...haha.

I had massive plastics back in Oct, my arms, breasts and thighs are fine, but my lower body lift still feels like it needs support. I just feel better, can't explain it. It also keeps any minor swelling at bay. Anyway, I would recommend 6265 for most purposes and for me for working out, but I like the tighter ones for daily wear better I think.
