x-post: What can I wear to restrain the loose skin/flab while exercising?
At 1.5 years post-op, I have come to terms with wearing something everyday under my clothes to keep all the loose stuff under control. But none of that (control top, spanx, etc) is very conducive to exercise. Is there anything light-weight, breathable, that can be worn under clothes? I have the stamina to actually run for a little bit now, and my muscles can handle it, but my skin/flesh can't. What do you guys do?
You mentioned spanx, I use under armor compression shirts and pants.
I have seen suggestions for the elastic weight belts that people use when having to do heavy lifting.
You could also look for medical grade compression gear. It is pricy, but you can get whole body suits.
Good luck on your hunt for something that works.

The first time you do something - It's going to be a personal record!
I wear what I call "Granny Panties" which are full briefs with the power panel in the front. The ones I have are Delta Burke brand. I also have some I got at Costco which don't have as much "power" but I can wear them alone. When I wear the others, I wear my cotton Jockeys under them. The Costco ones are Flesees. I ran a 1/2 marathon in those. I don't worry too much about my arms flappin' and my thighs wigglin'. I wear tanks with a built in bra and running tights that go to my knee.
