Now that I have a lot of loose skin I have to wear a slimmer to help keep sores at bay. What are some of your favorite under the bust daily wear slimmers?

Ruby Ribbon are great. I had the same issue then had skin removal but still wear one even 6 months later.

@aureaaureate I’m looking into skin removal but I’m scared and it’s so expensive. Thanks I’ll check them out.

@aureaaureate I’m struggling with the loose skin issue. I’ve maintained my weight loss for 2 years. Would you mind sharing more about your removal? Mine is bad in the tummy, legs and arms.

@implosive467 i waited about the same time frame then started seeing a surgeon. The loose tummy skin was causing open sores and rashes - yuck and ouch. Surgery was so much better than what i had anticipated - not saying it's wasn't an easy process but better than what i thought it was going to be. Loose thigh skin is the only other real issue i have but my surgeon said that's a very difficult and painful surgery, I'm choosing to avoid that.

Wacaol. Buy a size down to really maximize tightness. My legs rub together in the most painful way so I wear the tights. It slims all the lumps and bumps and the chafing sores are kept at bay. Expensive. You can find this brand in a high end department store in the US like Nordstrom, maybe Macy’s and if in Canada, at Hudson’s Bay. Once you try your size and make a decision, order other colours and styles online. No shape wear is perfect because it too is fighting gravity but if you want something that really helps, Wacaol.

Go to the doctor for the sores. if you have health insurance, they sometimes pay for skin removal due to these types of problems.
