I find that the best pants for me are the ones that are snug enough to remind me that maintaining my weight is a priority for me, but not so tight that they induce a muffin top or camel toe. Since I have a relatively loose tummy, I will often wear shapeware as assurance since it's hard for me to wear snug pants that won't induce a muffin top in any position. It also helps with the reminder factor.
Oh, and the pretend/role playing thing? I have *so* done that (and I'm 50!)! But it was usually when I was very actively exercising. Now that I use a treadmill desk, I'm just browsing the web as I exercise and I haven't really been pushing myself very often.
