Have to admit they ...Girlie is nice now and then. <br />Have to admit they just seem to uncomfortable to me whatever their name. All about comfort in moving and breathing ;-). My swimsuit is as close to a girdle as I'll get. <br />Sorry about your knee. Hope it heals up quickly. I have learned to really like the stationary bike. Always go to the one by the window (pretend traveling outside), set it for random hills and race on.*https://www.blogger.com/profile/03088241266939073133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392357741520882617.post-11860910762241372492009-09-03T09:25:19.702-05:002009-09-03T09:25:19.702-05:00It's NOT a girdle!

I'm not old enough to wear a girdle! :)<br /><br />Okay, I am, but still...<br /><br />I tried the spanx short pants thing and it ended up somewhere across the room. I haven't tried it on in a long time. I do wear the assets camisole and lovelovelove it. Apparently my upper happy is more shape-wear friendly. :)Cammy@TippyToeDiethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547787031318303521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392357741520882617.post-69378602551492961962009-09-02T11:44:16.879-05:002009-09-02T11:44:16.879-05:00I cannot wear those things either....it makes me g...I cannot wear those things either....it makes me get a sick stomach. lol And holy wow on your weight loss!

You might give it a try if you haven't yet.<br /><br />I wouldn't have been able to get into my dress for hub's reunion if I hadn't had my spanx. And I was pretty comfortable even though I was "sausaged" in. :)Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595663688605330722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392357741520882617.post-74847108023122806152009-09-01T23:10:15.129-05:002009-09-01T23:10:15.129-05:00I've never worn a girdle.

I have recently started wearing 'shapewear' not so much to hold me in but to stop the jiggle (from firm but fat, to leaner but loose... talk about jiggly loose bits.. ick!) so yes, from experience, get the next size up! lol it may not hold you in as tight, but it will still get the job done :)Lil Miss D (105in365)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03936410895092604041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392357741520882617.post-23038025026838330572009-09-01T10:44:40.790-05:002009-09-01T10:44:40.790-05:00About those knees...before my one knee replacement...About those knees...before my one knee replacement, and then after, my Dr. and PT both told me that any exercise that puts weight on the knees by lifting up is not good. So when you tuck the front of your ankle under the weight bar and lift the leg up, it can be harmful to already tender knee joints. They told me that lying on my stomach and putting the weight bars on my heels and lifting up to touch my butt was a much safer way to use the knee and strengthen it. Don't know if that will help, but I thought I'd pass that along. Good luck. <br /><br />P.S. Any garment that squeezes anything, doesn't not get my vote.VRaz60https://www.blogger.com/profile/02458018758313863664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392357741520882617.post-83811051844530932652009-09-01T10:26:49.098-05:002009-09-01T10:26:49.098-05:00Heh.

Makes no sense to me.<br />Sorry to hear about your knee. Do you find it bad while riding too? <br />Glad to hear you are wearing different things. A real sign of improved self esteem! Yay for you.<br />XO<br />AndreaAndreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459603047206643624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392357741520882617.post-87327978406471923552009-09-01T09:54:41.199-05:002009-09-01T09:54:41.199-05:00Oh man, I totally know what you mean. "Girdl...Oh man, I totally know what you mean. "Girdles" or whatever people want to call them, are so uncomfortable. They are hot, sweaty, and tight. I feel fatter with one on because I feel like I have another layer on my body. On the rare occasion that I wear a dress, I wear control-top panty hose with the legs cut off. That smoothes the old hiney!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
