I have that too, but flexes help...any type of spandex type camisole. Also I make sure my jeans are a little loose fitting at the waist. My spare tire inflates the tighter my waistband is

I am having trouble keeping my jeans up...Lost a pair on the sidewalk outside my house last week...Fortunately no one was around...won't wear them again...lol

I have been buying the flexees by maidenform for about 6 months now and for me it's a everyday thing I don't like the feeling without them I love the nice tight feeling it gives I buy them a size down as you want them tighter. I have a few black size 2X If anyone Is interested

Shaper camisoles might be the perfect thing for you, or a open-bust shaper bodysuit. Having straps avoids the frustration of rolling waistbands, for me. Good luck!

I saw these tank top type spanks today called flexees from maidenform. You might be able to wear that because it's like a tank top and would flatten it out. Google them or go on Amazon and see if they have them. I am right there with you that is why I know about them! Good luck! :)

I wear the Flexees every single day. And while working out. Even though I'm typically a size L, I have to get size M on these for extra "help" in the midsection. Don't be afraid to get the smallest size possible and the BEST way to put these on is to STEP into them and pull them UP instead of over the head!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
