It depends on how tight it is.

First I think compression is great on your stomach after surgery,it supports your stomach making it easier to move and helps work the C02 gas out faster.

The only problem with shape wear is it makes it harder to eat and drink. That compression compresses right on your stomach and is leaves even less room in a very compact and swollen space.

It just depends. if you have one of the full body version you can unzip down the front when you eat you might be okay.

I was given a and abdominal binder to help no a girdle or compression wrap like a giant ace bandage to tighten and loosen as I see fit to help with gas and to help my belly from moving all over the place.
