Hi all....

Not sure if you know what I am talking about....they are called Spanx....they are the 21st century answer to a "girdle". A bit more lightweight....perhaps a cross between the girdle and support pantyhose (best I can describe). They have a few different versions of them....hi-wasted, brief, etc. One of the saleswomen at the store where I shop was telling me that she loves them and highly recommends them. Since they do not sell them there, I know she was not trying to make a sale! Anyway, I am considering purchasing the high wasted ones to go under a few outfits I want to wear to holiday events. But, I am concerned about them hurting me near my port. Is that a silly question? I wonder if they hold you in so much (which would be a great thing!) that it would make that area uncomfortable.

Anyone have any insights to share????

I have bought them for years- even before the band. The best ones I have found are at Target. They may be the knock-off Spanx someone mentioned. They only seem to roll down if they are too small. I love how they smooth out my belly. I also have a "girdle" that has the bra/panty combo. It is comfortable, too.

I LOVE MY SPANX!

WISH THEY HAD A BRA TO FIT MY POOR BOOBS!

I just noticed my boobs are kind of deflating and I have stretch marks on them. I have been dieting like a mad woman lately and I think the rapid weight loss is messing them up.

I LOVE MY SPANX!
