I wear a shaper but more for support than looks. Most of my fat is around my waist. People were always asking how far along I was. Since I had surgery my stomach is starting to deflate and be droopy. If I don't wear the shaper, my belly gets sore. I'm hoping by using a good firming cream twice a day and using the shaper, I won't have too much sagging skin.

That's where I where I was going with my question. Does it help keep the sagginess to a minimum? Or reduce it? Or is it just to smooth out your tummy while you wear it?

I wear a shaper cami every day. LOVE them. Not uncomfortable at all (it's the same one I wore 50 lbs ago, so it isn't tight).
Note, I do NOT wear loose clothes. Everything I own is very fitted and tailored, so it just keeps me smooth and prevents jiggles (I hate gut jiggle!!!). If you're worried about your shapewear being uncomfortably tight, buy it in a larger size. And definitely try it on first- you might like the result.

I'm not far enough out to see if it really helps with sagging. I figure it can't hurt to try and it keeps me for being sore.

I would go to body shapers,as it holds all my things in and make me comfortable while walking.Many new modern design of body shape wear are available in the market,by wearing these you can look sexy and seduce the others.

Do they make them for guys because I have a bunch of saggy skin on my frontside -- belly & moobs. I'm guessing there isn't anything for the neck skin. Guess I'll have to look into surgery after I reach my goal weight.

Dave, InstaSlim (instaslim.com). There are spanx for men, too.

I have used spanx. I hate the look of bra and underwear lines and bulges. I just feel better having everything smooth. I tend to wear dresses a lot because I like them and in some dresses you need them. I'm only 32 but I have always liked the lingerie so I always wear slips and fancy under garments so the spanx was just natural. I don't think that will change, maybe when I get my tummy tuck but I love nice undergarments and its going to be fun to not have to buy plus size soon.

Thanks StephO! I orderd a black crew shirt from them. Hoping it works nicely.

I am agree with you.I too wear body shaper for my body parts,to keep them in shape. I feel comfort while wearing as well as look attractive.

I wear them. It's just makes a better smoother feel and fit under clothes. They are not uncomfortable. I wear the shapers, not spanx but... I don't always wear them but when I do< it's very flattering to whatever outfit I have one.
