l bought this product because I had a baby recently and havesome extra baby fat that has yet to tighten back up. Initially lthought the shaping product was really tight while putting iton but, I was very pleased once I wiggled my way in! I foundthat it's nicely tight enough to squeeze in my love handles but,it was comfortablc and stretchy at the bottom like underwearfeels. Im happy that I can breathe and wear this comfortablyall day. lt does just what it's meant to do without feeling likeI'm at loss for air or comfort. I forget that it's even on! lt'sdefinitely not meant to make you look slimmer but, insteadmeant to smooth the appearance of your body underclothing.
