i have a common problem like everybody does who is struggling how to stay fit and slim. well, i wore some girdle before to minimize my waistline but i stopped. i do not know it it really works. i did the same thing now, but i have a question: "using girdle or binder will help you tighten you tummy or at least minimize your actual waist size somehow?

hello missjahn, to be frank i have never used girdle for myself. they only help you to look slim by compressing down the loose body fat. but i don't think it can help you to have a flatter tummy. moreover, it alters blood circulation to the tissue and thus is not advisable to be worn for longer duration.

hello there. i am not so sure of what is the function of girdle. all i know is that it helps pressing down your fats. i guess it has a good effect because the fats will be press down and when you move burning it will be possibly happened. but you are right that when you use, it is limited of time for it will suppress the circulation of your blood and such. thanks

Yeah it does, it creates an illusion of a slimmer waist and flatter tummy depending on the fitting of the clothes. I also wear this sometimes when I wear a dress that is "shapeless", but that is very rare. It's really not good for the circulation if used for a long time.

i hope it will really works. i am using it at house to flatten my tummy and to have a narrow waist. but i will remove it when i will go to sleep because you are right, maybe blood cannot circulate well into our body. and i cannot breath too, it is not comfy if worn during sleeping times. scared that it might caused worst more than not breathing. gee... thanks
