Make my belly dissapear!

[hollybabe08]

I am getting married in April. Chose my dress but my problem is my huge tummy. I had cysts removed years ago and its left this huge belly. I look pregnant (i am definately not). I am doing exercise, gym, healthy eating etc but i want some advice. What to buy and where to go for pull in knickers. Anything that will pull my tummy in. I dont have a big bust either so that makes my belly look even bigger. I am not bothered how unsexy it looks as long as its practical. Help!

[ummmm]

Where have you tried. M&S and places like that usually do them.

Woods of Morecambe do industrial-strength girdles:

They are lovely to deal with as well.

On that programme how to look good naked, they do them big knicker things (sorry dont know what they are called) and they pull up to under your bust, they all say how comfy they are and they are avaiilable from a site called figleaves!

Why not pop into a local department store, somewhere like M&S or Debenhams and go for a fitting and just try a load on to get a feel for them.

M&S sell Magic Knickers, they were about £13 per pair, and said to be good, My SiL wanted to buy some last year, Don;t know how effective they are. Have you considered going to your GP and ask him if he can help in any way. Even physiotherapy can tone your stomach muscles up on go to a gym.

Gok does his own range for a catalogue.. no idea where though, sorry!

[askyourgran]

Sorry Holly didn;t read through your thread properly.I see you go to a gym etc.

maybe you need to tone your tummy muscles, try doing some walking to start, build up the distance, and also swim, all helps!...........

This is the sort of thing Gok Wan uses on his TV prog http://cgi.ebay.co.uk...=&hash=item826300098f

Try cutting out the carbs i did this for a few months surprised how much my tummy went down, problem is once you start eating carbs again it ballons out.

I & 4 other ladies of various ages did a test for a magazine of control /figure shaping underwear. M & S got the lowest score. The one I tried out was a one piece, like a peticoat, which shaped the boobs & held in everything else.It was from Figleaves. Another good company is Le Dea they do fab stuff.

Google Spanx. Brilliant. Expensive but well worth it.
