Any suggestions on brands/types that fit the best but don't make you feel like you're losing your breath?

They all squish the shite out of you. Spanx are well made and worth the price.

I have a Spanx and its not cutting it. Not enough of the right type of compression and support

I need something that will waist train...until plastics is a reality

I love the lace Spanx bodysuits - they're not the thigh-long ones everyone thinks about, and they might not achieve what you're looking for waist-wise, but for day-to-day wear they're perfect.

Funny story! I bought a full body piece from Lane Bryant. I wore it for the first time and didn’t realize at first it is “crotchless” as I like to call it. Needless to say, I wore a dress that day and there was a breeze. It was convenient to use the restroom . 😂😂
I’ve tried different brands but I buy briefs from Walmart and love them. They are more expensive than regular underwear but cheaper than name brands. About $10-$13 per pair. They are “Cupid” brand and make different styles. They wash really well, I wash and rewear the same 3 pairs all the time. I don’t go without shape wear unless I’m going to bed. It almost feels naked to go without now.

      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.
