Uncomfortable running

So I have been speed walking three miles a day for the past few weeks. Today I decided to jog. It was not hard and I could do it just fine unlike before. HOWEVER my loose skin and the fat left in my stomach and thighs is bouncing so bad if feels like a weight pulling me down. Is there anything that you can recommend to stop this from happening?

Thank you!

Agreed. I use compression yogas pants and tops. Also invest in one or 2 good sports bras. I actualy like Lane Bryants from the Ava Viz line. I just buy them when they go on sale. Enell is another excellent brand of sport bras.

@@OKCPirate I am having this issue too. I can run a 10K now, but everything jiggles like mad (I would be OK with it if just the act of shaking up and down was causing it to disappear but I know that's not the case, despite some crazy claims). Do you know of any of these items that are meant for guys?

The bests solution is to wear tight clothing and a good sports bra. I remember after plastics how different it felt to run without my extra stomach flab, although I don't remember noticing it much before I had surgery- probably because I always ran in compression pants because it helped minimize any chafing.

@ - these are my favorite running shorts (compression brief build in) http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/9-phenom-2-in-1-running-shorts/pid-10294033/pgid-10967863, and I like the NB shirts: http://www.amazon.com/New-Balance-Compression-Crew-Shirt/dp/B008J36G1C

Lots of options, they also make you look like a stud

How soon after surgery did you start running? I am only 5 weeks post op, but ran prior to surgery and am missing it. Hoping to be able to run soon.

After my 2 week check up I had no restrictions. Check with your doctor but I'm pretty sure you should be good to run.
