undergarments to help



Recommended Posts

does anyone know of any undergarments, something that holds the loose skin in around my waist so I don't have a muffin top? If so, could you please direct me where to go, maybe the internet? thanks

If you have a Target I get the knock off brand of Spanx (made by the creater of spanx). They are called ASSETS and they come in a variety of forms. I wear mine everyday.. I can't wait to not have to wear them after my TT!

The best ones I have found for that particular area are some Spanx control top panty hose. They go all the way up to right under the bra. I would get the target ones though. I bought a pair of the spanx from Lane Bryant for like $30, and the hose part of the damn things ran before I ever left the house. I ended up putting on a second pair on top of them (they were black, so it just looked like I was wearing tights).

It really makes a huge difference though.

I've tried many different ones and the best ones I have found were designed by the famous plastic surgeon Dr Ray. ..or Dr 90210! They are GREAT! I love mine, wear it everyday! You can find them at Sears or on HSN.com ...his line is called Dr Ray's Shapwear. He has many different styles.

Control type stockings. I use the sheer energy, get them in a bigger size and it goes all the way under my bra. Someone told me the other day "you don't even have a stomach, there's just nothing there." Ha! Not true, you don't loose 100 lbs and not have some loose skin (especially if you are 50).

I have about 25 pounds of loose, hanging skin from my stomach and the only type of undergarment that I've found that help me conceal the best I can is a brand sold at Walmart called Cupid. I get the high top one that goes from just under my bra but doesn't have the extended leg. It's a panty type. This might sound gross, but I can tuck all the skin in and it doesn't start coming out like it did when I spent more money for some of the name brand types. Mine costs $8.86 and it works wonders for me! It's only when I take it off that reality hits and all my loose skin takes a nose dive.

thanks, I will be shopping this weekend for one. I think the one that goes up the furthest is the one I need. I have to get rid of my muffin top somehow.

Hello everyone ,

in a reply to where to find undergarments that holds loose skin. I would like to introduce you to Ardyss International. They have garments that reshape your body after surgey. They were use for those after plastic surgery who were not able to exercise. And now it is being offered to everyone. My favorite is the body magic and you can get it at ardyssinternationalnc.com. It is expensive but well worth it. Hope this helps.:)

      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.
