hanging stomach

I have lost 93 pounds so far & my stomach is hanging even more now.  I plan to have surgery later this year or early next Spring.  In the meantime, I need a good girdle to hold my stomach in.  It keeps
flapping against my thighs!   Does anyone know a good firm girdle that will hold me in more than the
shapers advertised?  Any other ideas?   Thanks!

If Spanx doesn't do it for you, you could try a pair of compression shorts....are you looking for something to wear while working out?  Or everyday wear?

Hi Kim,
I'll check into compression shorts.  I'm looking for something I can wear when I go out of the house & in public.  I'm very self conscous with  my hang.  Hard for me to find tops that are 34" long.
Thanks for the suggestion!

I got this killer compression tank at target - it's high in the back like a regular tank top and cuts down in the front so it starts underneath your chest so the ladies don't get smooshed...and it's nice and long so it's wicked easy to tuck into your pants..I looooove it!!

Target is about 90 minutes away from me.  When I'm in that area again, I'll check it out.  Long is
definitely what I need especially since warm weather is around the corner.  I have worn my
winter or spring coats so no problem hiding that hang right now.  No can do anymore with 70ish temps!  Thanks

I have to buy Mens T-shirts to get them long enough to hide the
stomach.  I found some at Old Navy that were cheap, yet washed
and wore real good for my workouts.

I'll check the Old Navy stores too when I get in that area which will be April 18th.  Thanks to all
for all of this help!
