What's Your Favorite Shapewear Brand?



Recommended Posts

At 11 months out, I am very near to goal. There is no way plastics is anywhere in my near future, and I have a ton of loose tummy skin. What's everyone's favorite brand and how good is the control?

I am a Spanx only girl now. I have tried so many different brands and none were as comfortable or stayed in place as well as Spanx. My suggestion though is to order it on ebay-brand new. WAY cheaper than anywhere else.

I'm not sure what the brand is but I got mine at JCPenny. I absolutely love wearing them. I know they make me look a full size smaller and I just feel so much "firmer" in them. Maybe I got lucky but I have had no issue with them rolling up or shifting. In fact, they were on sale at a very good price and I only wish I had purchased each size they had.

I talked a friend into trying the entire Shapewear stuff and she now loves them. A lot of people think they will be tight and uncomfortable but I love them. Even after I have plastic (also about 2 years off for me) I might still wear them. They just make me feel good.

I dont know if anyone lives near a Gabriel Brothers, but sometimes they get Spanx for CHEAP! like 10 bucks! I got a ton from there, i hope they have it in my size after i start losing weight. (Gabriels is kinda like a Marshalls but some of their clothes is "irregular" you have to go through it) I get Lane Bryant jeans for 8 dollars!

Flexees...you can buy them at Kohl's, Target, etc. but the cheapest I've seen them is at Ross. I keep buying more because I started in 2x and now I need L, hopefully M someday so I don't like to spend too much!wink.png

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
