I bought some spanx pantyhose for my wedding outfit. Ummmm. They work nicely once you get them on, but WOW they were tough to get on. I pulled a pectoral muscle, broke a sweat, and pretty much tortured myself to squeeze into them. Who needs a gym!

LMAO!!!!!  I tried them when I was smaller a few years ago - my hubby was helping me hike them up - but they work!!!

Yeah, but the look that results from all that tugging and pulling is well worth the effort!  I need to buy a new pair of spanx...the kind that pulls in the thighs, stomach and the upper abdomen!  love 'em, love 'em, love 'em

They are hard to get on! Lol.  I have some imitation high waist bike short type ones from the ROMANS catalog in 4x.  It took me like 5 min (and a break 1/2 way through) to get the things on and then I couldn't breathe!  I'm thinking I need to drop more weight before I try that again.  I like how they smoothed the rolls out though  :)

Start: 487 lbs (8/07) Lost 81 lbs pre op on South Beach. 406 lbs at surgery (6/08). 179 post op, by 2011. I  lost 308 lbs. Gained 98 while pregnant (2012-13) lost all but 25. My goal is to be 179 again!

OK, I just about spit ice tea everywhere! Thanks for the laugh it was much needed!

I'll bet once you get them on it's worth it though!
