Never did the towel, at least not once I got dressed. I did used to dry off twice though. The first dry off right after the shower, and then another right before deodorant & undies went on. I used to used some Mexsana medicated powder, but this stuff can really burn sometimes. I've also heard of using the blowdryer.

I'm finally to the point where I don't have to lift my stomach up to dry under it. Man, having to do that sucked.

Oh yeah another sort of tip thing I do - I buy "granny panties" from LB. They have a high cut in the leg, which I like, but the tops go up really far. Usually above my belly button. And I like their quality. I consider these underwear to by me everyday girdle, because the height & fabric of the underwear is enough to help hold in the jigglies.

i can so relate to the lifting .. specially with my really large pannus. i hear you about that Mexsana! OMG that's caused a few tear-y episodes when i didnt know i was raw and put that on. oh dear!!

i used to get those too, i guess i never got them tight enough to help with the jigglies. have to wear a sucker-inner every day now to stop them. the 'strength' of them depends on my outfit for the day. it sucks, i have all these pretty new panties that are covered up by major spandex.
