Default belly...ugh!

My problem is my belly is disproportianate to the rest of my body..it sticks out everywhere! I would like to get a corset or cincher or something to wear under my clothes to have a smoother line...without the belly sticking out further than the boobies!

Can anyone help me with a SUPER DUPER INSANE control for the belly product? I'd love to wear my tighter shirts...because I end up wearing baggy ones that make me look even bigger! Spanx are not enough control for me. It has to be something you wear under everyday clothes..so no "fancy" corset!

I went to Macy's and got these underwear that basically go up to under my boobs. They have almost no stretch at all and they suck everything in. Since the cover my torso up to my bra there's no "spillage" over or under.

honestly? crunches.

i started just a little bit higher then where you are now, and i am about 5'8.5 no matter what you get, (im also in canada) - lots of stuff at the bay and sears, i think the brand is "trumphet" or something like that, they also have girdles and stuff- but in reality, nothing will hide it. no matter what.

the reality is, give it time.

my belly was very much like that for a long time, but you've lost a substantial amount of weight, and it will only get better from now on. why spend money on girdles when you can save it for better fitting clothes as your shrinking process continues?

honestly, in the last 100 lbs, i've bought 3 new wardrobes. IT ADDS UP. especially once you clear the 210s- to the 180s or so, the size drop was substantial.

I don't use mine as much to suck everything in at this point. I use them to flatten out my lumps and bumps from the excess skin. My high weight was 320 and between that and two pregnancies in two years my stomach is destroyed

My belly is proportionate with the rest of my body no matter what I do..even at a low weight. I've recently decided to start weight training, I hope that helps. I tend to try and find clothes that minimize the look of my large belly. I find that that the girdle type garments give me a rather "sausage" look lol.

I am a apple with a huge gut, I wonīt even use the pretty word belly, gotta call it what it is. I have tried so many girdles and undy things, but they all hurt and I feel like I canīt breathe in them.

I think in time with your weight loss, your body will change and your belly will reduce. My vote is the same as a previous person, save your money for your new wardrobe, or treats for yourself once you hit your mini goals! You can do it!
