Can we talk about clothing???

I love my Spanx. I'm not going to need plastic surgery because I'll just keep wearing 2 sizes too small, and my clothes will act as a compression garment - squeeze that skin right back into place. That's my plan anyway.

I like the spanx "higher power" panties but I don't like that, if you pull them high, and then have to bend over, they'll roll right back down. At least mine do. And I like the ones from LB that look kinda like 80s biker shorts and have rings of rubber in the leg to hold them in place, BUT when you wear long pants under them and have fat thighs like me, they give you the thigh's version of muffin top. Loaf top?

And spanx keep your butt from eating your underwear.

My new thing are Tummy Tuck jeans. Kind of an all in one package, and they feel good on. And usually I have an issue with jeans having "crotch bag" (the folds and folds of loose fabric in the crotch area), and these fit nicely.

I just bought a pair of the Tummy Tuck jeans (Not Your Daughter's Jeans) at the Presidents sale at Macy's today. Screaaaaaming deal. Normally $108 - I paid $29 (plus got another 15% off for using my Macy's card). They fit GREAT, but I would NEVER spend $100 on jeans. I may have to go back and get another pair while they are on sale.

I just bought a pair of Spanx from Torrid for $28... they go from below bust line to mid-calf. Haven't worn them yet though, thinking about it today. Sooooo sick of the muffin top!!!!

And those Tummy Tuck or Not your Daughters jeans sound awesome! What sizes do they come in?!?!?

Thanks for the aadvice, I'll check on those Levi jeans too.

I've just been too sick to even wear my new clothing. I 've had bronchitis,sinus infection etc. I went from a 20 to an 18 or from an xl to a large. My op was Nov. 5/07

I also have an hourglass figure and the style&CO from Macy's pants fit me well around the waist, hips, and butt.

ROTFL...picture crotchbags...lol.... :wub:

I tried the 2 sizes too small, didn't work..lol...eventually you have to breathe and problems happen! POP!!! lol...

Hum.. I tried Spanx, I am tall (only reason I can think they don't work on me) and my problem is that the ones that go up to the bra, gradually slide down during the day,or they flat out flip down and slowly start rolling down.. and then sliding off..from my body pushing on them.

I haven't tried Avenue's, but I've tired a million through the years and never found any that stay in place. The full body ones, are horribly uncomfortable, the bras never actually work, and I don't notice them holding that much in.. I still have muffin tops with them.

So, I'm curious.. you guys don't have these problems with the suckerinners that I have??

I was looking at the Not Your Daughter's Jeans.. they were way out of my price range especially when I'm buying new clothes almost every month.. and I didn't see any with big bell bottoms and that's all I wear :*(

I'm 5'10" and wearing my SPANX for the first time today. I love them.... but they DO come down in the back. As soon as I sat down the back rides down, and my butt isn't THAT big. Lol. The only thing on my thats not fat is my butt! Ha! So yeah, I do notice a difference in my pants with the SPANX on though... but I'd like more suckerinner power in the belly region.

Well I just bought a cami & a high-rise tummy control panty from Spanx. I'll let ya'll know how they turn out. $92.. but they have a 30 day return policy for any reason.. so if they roll down or up, I'm sendin em back!
