What type of spanx did you "step down" from your compression garment to?  Like the one I have now is like a high waisted to thigh torture chamber.  Dr. Lo said after about a month I can switch to something like spanx.  I am wondering what style people used.  I hate that high waist. 

Who thought I would be day dreaming about the day I got to wear spanx...

I have several but the one I felt most comfortable with is the Asset brand from target.  They are fairly reasonable ($18.99 i think) and still offer quite a bit of compression. I had my thighs done at the same time so I had to wear the longer thigh version.  The actual Spanx brand didn't really give me enough compression, but everyone is different.  Again, I still wear my boob to calf version at night or every other night when I feel the swelling creeping in.  Sounds like your feeling better!!

Personally, I hate Spanx. I don't know how anyone over size 0 can get in them. Once you squeeze yourself in, then they roll up or down. They are horrible!

I guess they are good for someone with zero body fat, who just needs to contain some loose skin.

You are so right about that.  I had buy my spanx in a 2X and I wear a size 10.

I bought Flexees from Kohls.  Much better priced, fit well and did not roll.
Good luck.

Hey guys,

I recently found a website called LegLuxe,  they sell a lot of compression type garments.  I just recently purchase  a Silver Wave Corsaro it goes from the wast to the the ankle but you can get it in shorts or capris.  What  I liked about it is that it comes in many colors and has liposuction technology that helps promote circulation.  I haven't had a chance to wear it yet do to the rest of my surgery with my arms and breast.

The website is www.legluxe.com  If you sign up with them you get 10% off your first order.  I paid 80.95 for mine and that is with free shipping.  I am going to look there now to see if I can find a front and back hook bra.  I hope this helps.
