Rago Shapewear = Instant Tummy Tuck!

[clk 3,519]

I LOVE my Rago Shapewear. Anytime someone asks me how I hide my loose skin I tell them about my shapewear. This is not for the faint of heart that feel Spanx are too restrictive. This is serious, vintage-styled shapewear that comes in limited colors and is attractive in a "sexy-only-if-you-dig-the-retro-look" way.

I dig the retro thing, and I love how well this stuff works.

As if I weren't already sold on their products (I've got several of their pieces, but my favorites are the 821 cinchers) my funk about my postpartum body completely disappeared this afternoon when my new order showed up.

I just had a baby four weeks ago (okay, four weeks and one day, but who's counting?) and have been ever so distressed by the loose middle I've been carrying around. It's just floppy and yuck and I fear that it will never rebound as much as I'd like, since it was already an issue prior to losing weight and having another baby (thanks twin pregnancy!) and there's just so much of it. Several inches, actually - if I pinch up my loose middle, I'm downright skinny under there. My entire middle is almost ENTIRELY loose skin and adipose fat that ain't leaving without some Lipo or a surgery.

I made the sorry mistake of measuring myself sans shapewear last week and it ruined my day. Mostly because I'm impatient and really wanted a magical rebound into my pre-pregnancy body. But today I put on my new cincher and man...not only does it pull everything in and support my back, too, but it took a full FIVE inches off my waist at the smallest point. I don't look like I'm wearing shapewear - I have my waspy hourglass figure back and look like I'm in a corset, even though it's easy to move around and bend in this thing.

IT'S AWESOME.

I just had to rave. If you like the older styling of serious shapewear you might give them a try. I shop herroom because they're super easy about exchanges/returns if something doesn't fit or feel comfortable.

I don't work for either company, honestly. I just love my shapewear and how it makes me look under my clothes. And this, my friends, is why I'm nearly three years out from surgery and still haven't had my plastics. I get an instant Tummy Tuck each time I hook up my shapewear and it's easy to forget I have all that skin until I put my PJs on each evening.

Only nine pounds and 1.5" back to my pre-pregnancy weight/size.

Thank you for this post. It gives me hope and something to look forward to. I'm only 5 weeks post op but I know I will have a tummy issue and I've contemplated surgery for skin removal down the road. I'm not ruling it out but thanks to you I have options now!!! Have an awesome weekend!
