lanna 0 Posted September 24, 2010 Is anyone having posture problems since their lapband? I have lost 50lbs in four months and my breasts have not decreased at all and now they are starting to cause severe back aches and the doctor said it might be from my breasts being to big? Am I the only weird case out there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joecs1 4 Posted September 24, 2010 Well no breasts for me, but, my chiro said this would happen. All these years our body adjusted to carrying weight, now our bodies have to re-adjust to less weight. He warned me before the surgery I would have some dicomfort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momto3redheads 18 Posted September 24, 2010 I am now 100 lbs down - and I noticed my posture issue at around 45 lbs or so down....it got worse, but I found that wearing my Body Magic really helps as it corrects my posture and supports my back. (all the while reshaping my figure) It has definately helped me a lot....even when I am not wearing it I naturally have better posture now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Momto3redheads 18 Posted September 25, 2010 It's a fabulous garment that has literally changed my life...sounds so cheesy and I definately wouldn't have believed it until I tried it. I had lost about 75 lbs when I heard about them and I started researching them online - they are made by Ardyss International...as I am in kansas there aren't any distributors here to buy from. (well there weren't then anyway!) The garment literally reshapes your body while correcting your posture and supporting your back...so it is good for skinny folks with back troubles, too. LOL They way they explain it is that fat is like Jello in a mold - so by wearing this at least 4 hrs a day 5 days a week your body will begin to mold to the shape....and I have found the compression on my torso helps to support my back and posture while sitting at a desk all day, as well as makes me not hungry. My hubby wears the mens tank and said when he has it on he isn't hungry - so the compression definately has something to do with that even for folks without a lapband. Anyhow -- I started wearing mine in march - and since then I am down 25 lbs and am in my 6th smaller sized body magic! (that's ten inches!) I had pretty much plateaued at the time I started wearing it - so I give it props for helping me get through the stagnant time....as well as shaping me so I feel better in clothes! I still weigh a bit more than when I got married, but am in a smaller sized clothes b/c of the shaping it has done. I love it. My website is www.ardysslife.com/figuresforfamilies and you can check out the garment there....the prices on there are retail, though, so if you are interested please PM me and I can order for you at the wholesale price, stright to your door. (for example the body magic is $84 plus taxes, shipping and handling) I know it sounds like a sales pitch...which isn't really me at all, I just totally believe in thsi product as it has helped me and a lot of my friends SO much. I became a distributor so my friends, family and i could get the products at a cheaper price....and I am happy to help others do so as well! just give me a holler!
