Oh yeah. Second baby, then unemployment, then a death in the family. I went for the ice cream therapy, Big Time. I’m working on getting BACK to a muffin top. I can’t wait to look good in clothes again – solidarity with all of you

I wish I would have had this for my high school prom! I cringe looking back at the pictures…the lines from the boning on my undergarments show right through the dress! Talk about embarrassing!

I wish I had been wearing shapewear when I was out shopping and a little girl asked me if I had a baby in my tummy. I was embarrassed and told her that I didn’t, but then she continued to insist that I had a baby in there. You can always count on little ones to tell you the truth about how you look. But seriously, where were her parents to stop her from badgering me?! That was two babies ago (I’m 6 weeks postpartum now), so imagine how much more I must need some shapewear now.

I happened to be wearing some shaping shorts to a wedding this last summer. They were “skin-toned,” but lets just say they were a little yellow-y. The dress I was wearing went just below the knee, but each time I sat down, the shorts happened to peek out the bottom. So much so that I pulled the strapless dress down further from the top that my breasts were almost falling out. While I was in the food line, I guess the shapewear got a little cling-y and just happened to cling up my butt. My friends husband was in line behind me and was too embarrassed to tell me that these “shorts” I was wearing were showing (my butt was exposed all the way to my upper back…don’t ask how I didn’t notice!), so he just stood close to me so other people wouldn’t notice. I was wondering what he was doing until I was walking over to sit down and his wife ran up to me, pulled my dress skirt down and said, “those Spanks just want to keep showing themselves today!” I will never wear them again- so embarrassing! I just bought some yummie tummie shorter leggings and am obsessed! They work so much better and are super cute. I get lots of compliments like, “You have lost weight!”, “Cute leggings! Where did you get them?” It’s amazing. Wish I didn’t spend so much on leggings that don’t support at all!

I wish I had shapewear every day – I’ve gained about 20 pounds in the last year (moving, new job, stress, kids, etc.) I don’t even want to see people I know!!

I’m quite camera-shy, and was so proud to get through eight full months of my pregnancy without having a single belly photo taken of me. One day in my ninth month, I had a big meeting at work, and put on a new maternity dress that I thought looked fabulous on me. I felt so great that whole day! My husband also thought I looked fantastic, and wanted to get a picture of me when I came home that evening. I was in a good enough mood that I agreed.
It was probably all the hormones, but I bawled my eyes out when I saw the photo. I looked horrible! I was so huge in all the wrong places. My husband laughed, which he quickly learned was not the right thing to do!
I know pregnancy is such a beautiful thing, but next time around, there will be NO photos!

I have two stories for you that go right along with one another. I wish I would have had shapewear on when I was at work one day. Most shapewear is so uncomfortable that I never wear it on a work day. (And that’s one of the reasons I have been wanting to try Yummie Tummie because I heard it does the job and you can actually wear all day!) I went to get lunch and it was right before Christmas, and I usually eat at this place a lot but haven’t been in for a month or so because I was so busy. Since I’ve been in I gained a few pounds more than usual from eating all the Christmas cookie and candy, and I gain weight in my stomach first. So the guy I always see there who makes my sandwich was striking up a conversation while someone ran to the back to get more buns. And obviously he noticed I gained weight and he said ahh, you’re expecting a baby! How exciting. I was so embarassed since I obviously wasn’t pregnant yet and didn’t think I looked that bad but apparently I did. I didn’t even go back there to eat again, I just went to the same sandwhich shop that was a block down. So I didn’t have to see him again and would hopefully lose some of that Christmas weight! I sure wish I had Yummie Tummie then! So this leads into my other story…. a couple weeks after, I had a holiday party to go to. So I made sure I worse Spanx this time! So i wasn’t mistaken for being pregnant again! We had mainly appetizers and cocktails. Well by the end of the night I had to go pee soo bad after having so many drink and having my inhibitions lowered. Of course, there’s always a line for the ladies room, so I had to weight and I made it into the stall in enough time. But this shapewear was such contraption, that it went all the way up to my bra and hooked onto it, so I was just going to move the bottom over and go but started to get a little pee on it. So I had to basically take off my entire dress and unhook each loop from my bra. In the meantime, since I already started going to the bathroom a little more came out! So once I finally got the shapewear off and finished my business. I couldn’t even put it back on since it was now wet. So had to stuff it in my purse. Once again so embrassing! I left the party right away in fear someone would see my shapewear or notice I suddenly have a “baby bump” again! So I couldn’t win either way, with or without shape wear! If I don’t wear it I look pregnant, and if I do, it’s uncomfortable and I pee myself. Oh my! That’s why Yummie Tummie would solve all these problems! It’s comfortable, not a one piece garment and I could wear it to work and parties and smooth everything out!

I haven’t worn shapewear…. yet! We’re trying for our second, and each month that I find I’m not pregnant again, I wonder what’s happening with my belly and why it’s growing when nothing in there!

In the past year, I’ve lost 50 pounds (I still have another 50 to go), but for some reason, it never occurred to me to wear shapewear before I lost the weight. I guess I always thought that shapewear wouldn’t make a difference when you’re 100 pounds overweight! About 40 pounds into my weight loss, I tried on a YT tank. I’d been hearing about them for a while, but had never tried them! I couldn’t believe what a difference it made. During the 1st day I wore my YT tank, I had 5 different people comment on how flat my stomach was! So I guess my answer to when I wish I was wearing shapewear and wasn’t….let’s say from 2000 til 2010. So glad I discovered Yummie Tummie and would love to win. I don’t have any YT leggings…yet!

I wish I had one of the tanks it’s would really help me so I could have confidence about going out

I wish I had the shapewear the other day when my husband made me laugh and my belly LITERALLY shook like a bowl full of jelly. I’m only 5 weeks postpartum, but it put a quick stop to the laughter

I wish I had shapewear pretty much the first year after my daughter was born! At a party about a month after she was born, she was being held by somebody else, and a stranger did ask me when I was due. It was awful.
