Question:
Excess Skin

Does anyone have information about body shapers that are good to hide the excess skin until I can get plastic surgery? I was looking for something that goes around the tummy area!~    — nicole30 (posted on March 11, 2008)

I've tried acouple of things, but they roll or they are too hard to put on. Mainly I just stuff my skin down into my jeans. Ha Ha Pat

Read all my previous posts on Spanx. They are my best friend, made originally by a women who had GBS and they hold in the skin, do not roll and and come in panties, high waist, long legs and cami's to hold in the top. i got my first set on ebay since they are so expensive, but well worth it. I think blomingdales and lane bryant carry them now. I paid alot less on line but check them out, they really smooth me out and hold me in and one night I slept in the top, forgot I had it on, thats how comfortable they are! Try them, and let me know.

Spanx are good but they are pretty expensive. Spanx makes a less expensive line marketed by Target. I forget what they're called tho. Also, I've read about and seen various interviews with Sara Blakely, the inventor of Spanx and I've never heard anything about her having WLS of any kind. Where is that info coming from?

I am glad this question came along. I will definitely be in NEED soon. I did some research after reading some of the posts and saw that the Target brand is ASSETS by Sara Blakely, and when you go to the spanx website, they list all the retailers that sell Spanx too. www.spanx.com or go to www.target.com to get into the women's section of intimates and find body shapers. Good luck and if you try anything and love them.... post that too! Hugs and best of luck! Cheryl

Hi!Kymaro is the best ,the top part,it does not roll,it is like a tank top but it goes under your breast,it holds in your stomach and hides the rolls,you dont have that over the top of pants either and helps with that skin on top of back by armpit.You can order online ,they have a informercial.They will try to give you bottoms and you pay shipping.I hated thoose and sold mine on e-bay.They squish everything ,and make you butt look fuuny.Try this out,it does even feel like you have anything on.Made from microfiber,you get teo of them,one in black and one in tan.All the others I tried liked roll or something when u sit.Sandy Hanson
