I finally found a sports bra to handle the upward bounce while trying to learn to run.

But what about the belly bounce? Any suggestions on this? It's really uncomfortable.

i tend to wear tight fitting under-armour -like shirts when i run.  it's usually enough support for my tummy.
Read my blog, BARIATHLETE   I run because I can.

Back when I cared I would wear a tight under armor shirt and a loose running shirt over it. Now I just let it flop around.

I wear compression gear. Under Armour makes some compression shorts you can wear under your running shorts/pants for about $25. They keep things from flopping around from the waist down. For my loose skin above the belly button, I wear a compression shirt, especially when I bike because it makes a very distracting sound when it flaps o the bike.

under armour... i wear one size smaller than my shirt size, that seems to keep everything in check, there is still some bounce, but it is much more comfortable.
Where are we going??  And why am I in this handbasket??

right now.  somewhere.  somebody is working harder than you.
