This thread made me curious so I stopped by Dick's
Sporting Goods today and looked at them not sure how much the shirt would push the lumps in. The sleeveless were 24.99 and the long sleeve were 34.99 they didn't have short sleeve. Cheaper than slimming shirts I've seen advertised on TV.

I had picked up one or two from TJ Maxx I think... spending $35 bucks on an undershirt just seems wrong to me. It fit snug for a week or two but I lost pretty fast so beyond that it fit like a regular undershirt.
I skipped it going forward... an now sort of at the maintence phase I am not sure it would have done anything anyway.
Plus wearing it I couldn't help but think of the Seinfield with the BRO. | |

I got this compression garment: Design Veronique -- Non-Zippered Abdominal Garment
I haven't used it yet since I just got banded, but I hope it helps.

It has an opening in the crotch so your junk does not get squished.

I just looked at the link as well... the junk section does look a little odd.
Also, clearly the model does not need to be wearing this garment. I would have been more inclined to order it if the picture showed a heavier guy without the garment on, and then the difference with it on.
I was luck and my skin retained its elasticity. I am down 119 pounds and just have some excess around the love handle section, but it seems like targeted exercise is helping that. | |

re: "your junk does not get squished. "
....can't be ALL bad HAR!!!!
I don't know....."targeted compression" at $160 doesn't seem like the answer I'm after...
I'm still "30# from goal"....

I have 3 shirts. I call them "manspanx" I got the website from this forum. They are GREAT. I'll do some digging...
Found it the site is www.underworks.com and I bought a crew neck, V neck and tank. over a year ago and I wear them almost daily and just machine wash and dry.
Still as compress-y as the day I bought them.
I actually came back to lok up where I got mine from because I need smaller sizes and coulf not remember the site.
