Need help finding a bodyshaper / girdle / stomach squisher



Recommended Posts

Hi Ladies,

I need help finding a good, tight bodyshaper for formal wear. I want something that won't keep me from being able to pee!!

Your experience with these are appreciated.

Seems like most of these are sold online.

Its been a while since someone else posted this request so I'm looking for new ideas.

Thanks much!

Target, Ross, macys. Kohls. Lots of stores carry shape wear. The hot tip is to put them on from the bottom and pull up. Very difficult going over your head!.

I prefer straps with the boob part open so I don't smoosh the girls down. It goes down below my stomach and stays there You can buy a girdle type bottom if you want full body ... That does make it easier to use the restroom I find.

I went with a galfriend and we had a tickle figuring out shapes and sizes and she helped ferry pieces back and forth... Better than getting redressed each time.

Happy shopping...they actually do hold parts in!

Catherine's has them and they are easy to wear and use the restroom in. I feel naked without mine now which makes outdoor activities in August a little unsettling.

Thanks ladies...I found one at a lingerie shop that specializes in undergarments for formal affairs (of course I paid for it $$$). Not crazy about how it fits (it does the trick) but I'll be able to use the toilet!

      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.
