Question:
I need to know of good undergarments for consealing loose skin
I have lost over 200 pds and still have some to go,but am getting frustrated because the clothes I where are dictated by the fat/skin I have around my middle area. Does anyone have any suggestions for garments that "vaccum Seal" in everything. — jmas24 (posted on July 9, 2008)

They make "body shapers" or "all in ones"...they are
like girdles that hold everything in and smooth everything out. I don't
know what size you are, but Roamans.com and lanebryantcatalog.com or
lanebryant.com (if you are smaller) has them for sale. You can also try
Wal-Mart or if you have a local lingerie shop they can fit you for one.
Congrats on the weight loss!

Boy, do I have just the site for you. I too needed something and ordered
a compression garment from www.designveronique.com.... they have all kinds
of garments there. I bought the all in one with bra, tummy, butt and
thighs.. open crotch so you can go to the bathroom. Zips up the front.
Very snug. Not cheap but really great.
Good luck,

Contact Underworks.com and they have a 800 number to call them at. They
are a small company, but very helpful and work with a lot Bariatric
patients. Leave a message if you get voice mail. They have some special
garments that I have not tried that one in my support group also call,
vacumm sealed, so I saw that in your email and though of them. I use there
996 and have since 3 months, and it has allowed much of my skin to shrink
back on my stomach. I am 62 but my largest scar was 2-3/4" and is
just 7/8" wide now. Something is shrinking it, and I credit wearing
their garments all the time. People think I have had a tummy tuck. Best
of success to you.

I wore a binder my first year or more...I lost 150 lbs and I got really
lucky that eventually my skin tightened up (mostly) ...But WOW!!! You lost
over 200 lbs! That is just fabulous! Give yourself giant kudos! You will
feel better wearing one of the body shapers from one of the sites the
others gave you...The site from Dawn Vickers has a binder similar to one
that I personally wore and loved it...But there are some really great
things on those sites! I might have to get one for jiggles and ripples,
myself!
Congrats...You are awesome!

I agree with Dr. Reys shapewear, I bought the full body one at Sears, I
think for $40.. I dont remember it was last year and I ended up taking it
back because it didnt fit with the dress I bought it for. But it did hold
everything in..... I couldnt wear it without straps though because it kept
falling down, if I buy another it will be to hold in my belly.

Kymaro,they are a little spendy but they are worth every penny.The bottoms
are not good,just the top it holds it in and comfortable.Hard to figure out
how to put on and take off untill u figure it out.Its cut out in the boob
are so it does not smush them actually lifts them.

I like the body shaper that Oprah was talking about: Yummie Tummie. The
website is (surprisingly) http://www.yummietummie.com/
Dr. Rey's has good stuff too.

Hi Jennifer,
I'm SOOOOO proud of you! You go, girl!!! 200 lb loss is awesome!
I use a Kymaro body shaper. I love the fact that it's two pieces so I can
choose to wear only the upper body shaper with skirts, etc, but have the
bottom shaper for use with slacks/capris if desired. I wear my own
undergarments with this item covering the area where I need the control.
Check out the website www.ubuyez.com
If you purchase the nude top body shaper then you can get the bottom for
$9.95 shipping charge. You can also get another one in black for shipping
charges of $9.95 each too! I think I paid around $80 bucks or so and got
all 4 pieces. The garment is so easy to use and clean....machine wash -
line dry. I absolutely love it!
I'm in sales so I needed something that would be comfortable to wear all
day long - and this is!
Best of all, it comes with a 30 day full money-back guarantee. (geesh, I
sound like a sales rep for them, don't I...lol).
Anyway, congrats on your wonderful weight-loss journey and best wishes in
the continuation of LIFE!
