I got a pair of Spanx today and I swear I went down 2 pants sizes when I put them on. I got the high waist, footless kind and i love them. Size 26 to 16 in THREE months..amazing.   Heres the picture with the spanx on, nothing overhanging my jeans or anything!

You look great!  I've been thinking about a shaper. What type of Spanx did you get, and did you get the one true to your weight/height/size?

I got the high waist (just below bra) to mid calf, footless.  I did get it true to my size.  I'm going back tomorrow to get one I can wear with a dress.  I had no idea how great they were.

I bought spanx to wear to a wedding about a year and a half ago and let me tell you...how the hell you get them on...blows my mind!!!!!!!!!!  I felt very uncomfortable in it and it was so tight and I felt like I could hardly breath!  I ended up selling it on ebay and just wearing the dress without it, hell, everyone was so drunk at the wedding I doubt they noticed my roll(s)! LOL
But...you look great in that pic!!!  Cute outfit!

They're great.  :)   I haven't bought a set that fit my current size as I want to be down 1 more size before buying them again.   Kinda pricey and money is tight. 

The ones I've seen have always been in Lane Bryant, is there another place to get them perhaps a *****eaper?     (the full body kind - bra to calf)

You look F A N T A S T I C !  !  ! 

Really wonderful!  Good for you.  Keep up the GREAT work!

I will have to try some Spanx, as well!  I haven't been able to find anything I like except for one bathing suit styled body shaper.  (which I found out is now discontinued...and I have grown out (down) from the larger size.)    I haven't tried Spanx, but I seem to have tried just about everything else including Dr. Reys, Shapewear, etc...the list goes on...none seem to fit me well. 

Thanks for the tip...will give it a shot!
