Ok, I am desperate to find high quality compression pants to work out in. I cannot find them in my size. I am still a big gal even though i have lost 100 lbs. I need them to control the flopping of my apron tummy while i run on the treadmill.

I go on line and look at the size charts and order the compression pants based on the size chart. Then they arrive and are too big. Yesterday I got another pair in the mail and again too big. It said hips size 56 should be a 3X. I bought a 2x and they were way too big. DAMMIT! I am sick of buying them and having to send them back. 

I need to be able to try them on. Does anyone know where I can get them? I need the kind with no cotton because i swim in them also.

I did find a magnificent work out bra that has stopped the bounce completely. I had to order a size up from 42DDD to 44DDD but it is primo.

Thanks,

I have used enell and moving comfort bra's.   The only reason I dont wear the enell anymore is because I don't think it wicks sweat away as well as the others.  I dont like any bounce...I dont care if it looks like I have a uniboob.

I started out just going to Walmart then ventured into a sporting good store for pants.  Dick's had plus sizes.  My favorites are the capri length, but so many of them  cut into my calf!  I end up in the 8" shorts most of the time.   

Good luck finding what you need.  When you do, order 2!!  My hubs laughs at me,but when I found I top or pants that fit and I liked I would try to buy 2 of them.  :-)

I tried the ones at Old Navy but didn't like them.  They showed every bump and lump.  The Old Navy compression sports bras are good.  I bought a pair of active wear pants at the Avenue those are working well.  Avenue is now carrying sports bras.  Wish I was more help.
