I wore a binder as tight as I could for a few weeks after surgery then, bought a tank top type shape wear and wore that for a few weeks.

I'm pretty sure you could wear any kind of shape wear asap after surgery as long as it isn't hurting you.

Yup. I loved it all after surgery as it did help with pain and just made me feel better. I imagine once I get some more loose skin I'll go back to wearing some sort of shape wear. Right now it's just not needed. Plus I outgrew the 2 I had in the last 2 months. I'll wait until I reeeeeeally need em. :)

I've thought about getting Spanx, but they are so expensive... I think of that movie with Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy when Melissa tries to make Sandra look sexy and cuts off her pants to find spanx because it "holds stuff in" :unsure:

so even Sandra Bullock has "stuff" LOL :P
