LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE LEGS!!!.... AWESOME TIPS FOR THE LOOSE BITS ..

I have been on here long enough for most to know that I love to sew and I just love to be creative be it with my brushes and canvas ... or on my sewing machines .. or with my weaves/wigs/lace fronts/full laces or braids .. or just being creative PERIOD ... I am pretty sure there is nothing new under the sun .. but I am wrapped like this ... artistically goofy LOL and I love love love to share my creative moments with my friends IRL and in cyberspace ... 

I shared before with you my upside down pantyhose for the batwings ... remember??? well how about this number here ...

CHECK IT OUT... ECONOMIC ... DOABLE... EASY PEASE ... AND LOOKS HAWT ... SANDA HOSE FOR THE LOOSE/WRINKLED/LUMPY/BUMPY/CELLULITE/SPIDER VEINS/ IN NEED OF SUPPORT BITS ON THE LEGS AND THIGHS....

HEY I HAVE BEEN GETTING TONS OF COMPLIMENTS AND HAVE BEEN DOING THIS SINCE MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS RENDERED MY THIGHS THE LUMPY APPEARANCE OF COTTAGE CHEESE IN SOME AREAS ... WHERE LOOSE SKIN, WRINKLES, DIMPLES, CELLULITE, STRETCH MARKS AND SPIDER VEINS TELL A TALE OF FEET THAT HAVE WALKED MANY MILES CARRYING UP TO A HIGHEST WEIGHT OF 327 POUNDS... AHHHHHH AHHHHHHH I HAVE SAVED UP FOR MY THIGHPLASTY BUT AM HAPPILY RELINQUISHING THE FUNDS AND SETTING THEM ASIDE FOR MY SISTER SHOULD THE NEED ARISE....

SHARING WITH YOU ...... MY VERSION OF WHAT I CALL SANDA-HOSE OR SLIPPER-HOSE IN THREE EASY STEPS....

You only need 3 items ... 

1. Sheer support hose in your skin tone... the best brand for this that I have been using is Legg's Support hose (read SUPPORT NOT 'shaper') or make sure it is a SHEER SUPPORT HOSE IN YOUR SKIN TONE IN A BRAND THAT DOES NOT RUN .... this is the ONLY one I use....

 

2. Jobst IT-stays Body Adhesive roll on ... best brand on the market can get at Compression sales.com
 

3. Pair of sharp scissors...

THREE STEPS .. .EASY PEASY...
1. Take a pair of support hose and cut along the seam at the toes or just cut the toe part off but not pass the double fabric into the sheer nylon ... like this.. AND PUT THEM ON.... 
 

2. Put on the stockings with your toes exposed and at the base of your toes use the IT STAYS BODY ADHESIVE ROLL ON .. TO ROLL ACROSS THE EDGE OF THE STOCKINGS FROM TOP TO UNDER FEET...

3.. GET DRESSED!!!! AWESOME THIGHPLASTY WITH JUST A HOSE ... AHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHH THIS CRAZY ARSED SISTA IS GIVING UP HER THIGHPLASTY FUNDS TO A GOOD CAUSE ... MY SISTER IS IN THE FIGHT OF HER LIFE FOR HER LIFE AND I CAN DO JUST AS WELL WITH MY SANDA-HOSE!!!

And since I am a picture AW ... I will show you ME with my home concocted Sanda-Hose...
1. Cut hose .. got dressed... rolled the It-stays around the edges like this... see the edges?

 2. I put my slippers back on ... the hoses are sheer .. I ALWAYS wear them ... they are totally washable every night too... they come in packs of 3 pairs and I order tons of them and they last for-ever...

Done! I took a picture for my digital empowerment journal 'a picture a day keeps the pounds and the inches away' because I love love love tracking Snippets of my journey in pictures ... I guess these are sanda-slipper hoses LOL...

and DON'T FORGET THE TIPS I SHARED ON HERE BEFORE ... the upside down downside up pantyhose... FOR THE BATWINGS AND LOOSE BITS ON THE ARMS...

Same principle ... this time you cut out the toes and the crotch .... slip the waistband over your head and stick your head through the crotch and your arms through the legs ... not to worry... it stretches and support and HIDES AND CONCEALS THE BATWINGS ... I even wore them after my modified brachioplasty because I had swelling for ages and still do... use It-Stays body adhesive roll-on or a bracelet or any finish to the edges at the wrist and voila ... INSTANT BRACHIOPLASTY WITH A PANTYHOSE ... WOOT!
 

Thank you for allowing me to share SNIPPETS of my journey ... and tips and tricks of a goofy old sista on the journey!!!

Very creative.  For those who have a LOT of excess skin on the thighs, though, especially if the skin hangs down at the knees, wearing support stockings does not do much other than push the extra skin together a bit and create large wrinkles under the hose.

sorry I misunderstood, I thought they were support pantihose. My mistake.

 You are correct ... the Leggs support hose is not recommened to accommodate that much excess skin .... however there are awesome hoses that accommodate those specific problems (up to a certain degree) at compression sales.com ... I have two awesome church sisters ... one fitting the description you give ...and one with lymphedema still on top of massive weight loss and instead of legg's or regular support hoses she needs her prescription compression hoses ... she gets her prescription hoses even sheer ones from there ... I fixed them so she could wear slippers and she was just so happy ... because she could not afford to buy two pairs (they are costly) and she had an older pair she wanted me to cut for her... then another member did her pedicure for her and she was just so thrilled.

Thanks for sharing. I will have to try this. My thighs are a hot mess and I don't think I'll ever be able to afford to get them done (plus that surgery scares the bejeezus out of much more than the others I've already had

 I hear you Laura... I kept putting off my LBL because of fear and not having the time really ... My friend had an awful time with extreme pain and healing especially in the upper thigh region ... where the sun does not shine...

I have the funds and was ready to give it a go and then I chickened out again... and I am glad I did...  A few months back my very dear IRL sister was diagnosed with the most dreadful illness ... her treatment is very costly and while she has the funds and the insurance for now covering the meds sent from the US to Panama I am going to give her this as my love offering... because I want to ... 

My OH friend MSW will not Settle on BAF is sold on the upside down for the batwings ... and she has came up with some other creative uses with hoses too... hey whatever works LOL

 I have used the Legg's support hoses with my swim suit AND swimming ... I have also used speedos... 

The first time I tried the hoses with my swimsuit was the first time I ventured out to the beach a few years back... they were NOT the support hoses they were regular hoses ... I went for a swim at Hammonasset beach and the stocking seemed to grew and grew and grew into a tangled mess ... I thought a creature in the water was pulling at me .. so I ran back to shore .. with the long tangled stockings that I stepped on and fell flat on my face ... LOL ..

I have done the hoses in the pool with full toes ... uncut under my swimsuit... I have not tried it at the beach so I don't know...
