waist training after gastric bypass



Recommended Posts

This is the progress just from the first four days of seasoning(Seasoning your corset is the process of slowly breaking in your corset. It allows the steel bones of the fabric to slowly mold to your shape and will result in a longer lasting, more comfortable corset. The seasoning process also gives your body some time to adjust to the pressure of a corset.) 🤯 the corset isn’t even fully seasoned till the month mark. I’m just mad at myself for waiting this long to get one 😂. I definitely recommend it! I got mine from alteregoclothing.com.

Don’t just buy one tho message them on Facebook with your measurements and photos (add that your currently loosing weight also) and they will recommend a style and size based off your measurements and body shape. The page on Facebook is “alter ego clothing”

How hot are they to wear? I just can’t imagine wearing one in the summer. I can’t even imagine wearing on in the winter time in Phoenix!

Didn’t corsets go out with the Victorians? Do we really need to put ourselves through that kind of discomfort?

How did you find out about these? Do you know anyone that has permanent results? Or do you have to wear forever? Not much information on their website...

Anything that involves the Steele rods/elastic support, etc...actually decreases muscle tone. That's probably why it is able to shape you. In the 80's all Abdominal surgery were wrapped in these waist binders. Then back injuries jumped on board. Any back pain you got a back brace/support. When you took it off the poor muscle tone caused more bad then good. Oh forgot if you fractured a rib we did chest wraps, not sure how many pneumonia that caused but it was a common side effect. Like the old saying goes if you don't use it you loss it.....Ask you surgeon or PCP

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
