So I have lost 110lbs and I need something to hold all the lose skin in, gerdal. My mom gave me a spanx tank to wear but it is a large, and I think I need a size smaller. Does anyone have any idea where to get one kind of cheap? If anyone can help that would be great!~

I think you get what you pay for. I have purchased Spanx from the manufacturer website. Other brands are less expensive and similar, but I'm wearing my spanx right now and they are definitely the ones that make me look the hottest!

To keep the "jiggle out of the wiggle" I had my best luck at the KMart in Acme. They had several different sizes to choose from, and I think the prices were about the best around. WalMart had some also. I wasn't so concerned about the Spanx brand in itself - just they had a lot of "hold" to keep things from moving around. Size small control underwear are hard to find - but I did find mine at KMart. They also had them in M-???

When I had coupons and if they were on sale I'd look at Kohls too. Kohls I think had the best selection of 1 piece. I bought just the underwear kind. Kohls is where I got my 1 piece after the TT when I wasn't wearing the full garment anymore..

I will have to look around. I really like this tank top kind I have from spanx so I want to look for somehting simular. I am going to be in Traverse tomorrow but I am not sure when because I have the kids by myself tomorrow. Thanks everyone for the help.

P.S. If I had an extra $50 I would get the Spanx because they are very comfertable.

I bought a 2x at Walmart on sale for $11. It goes from the bottom of the bra to the lower thigh. It say a 2x is 36" waist, which seems odd. I wear a 1x but my waist isn't 36" I haven't tried to get it on yet.

I like flexees. Sometimes you can find them on sale. They're silky and feel real good next to your skin. A lot of stores, including Kohls carries them. Lin

I have some questions about Spanx. Several years ago I bought a pair of their hose and they were comfortable. Now I'm curious about the shapers, like the ones that are footless and come to the thigh or calf. I remember girdles and they always cut off my circulation and I was the most miserable girl around. So are they still made in way that has them roll-up and cut off the circulation?

My friend who runs a clothing store recently told me to get some so that the "cottage cheese" on my thighs will be smoothed out (said in the most loving way by a good friend). She said that she wears them for that sleek look.

Opinions? Experience? I don't want to spend a lot if they're are going to hurt because I won't wear them.
