Most of my friends on here know I am a cuddly granny , I had lost some weight and was watching an online shopping channel , They were selling what they call body stockings , go from the knee op to the chest has small thin straps and is stretchy , I thought " Hmmm could be good this" well they came in the post this morning , one flesh and one black , Hubby was lying down for his usual rest( heart problems) I thought I would try it , Now I am what you call cuddly ( polite for fat ). I took the flesh coloured one from the packet , OMG it was about 10 ins long and about6 inches wide , "me fit in that never " took of my trousers( slacks ) and top , balanced on the one foot and got that in Ok , tied to get the other foot in ( only a couple of inches to stretch here , landed on my bum on the floor . Got the 2 feet in pulled it up over the knees with a struggle got it up over the ample boobs lol and tried to put everything in the tight bandage, put my trousers back on and the top . I went to show hubby . ". "do I look slimmer pal " Iasked. you are doing well he said just keep up the good work , he never noticed the difference , I pulled up the shirt to show him and he asked " how do you go to the loo " I burst out laughing , there was a space to go for a pee but if I were desperate(I have IBS and always running ) I would have to strip down , we were both laughing so hard by now , by the time I got it of again I was exhausted ,I think that was a good exercise and I must have lost weight by just putting it on and taking it off again lol , Oh! well! it was worth a try , I might leave it for a wee while before I try the black one xxxx

Too funny..
And this is why we always find these interesting items on ebay ..discribed as tryed on but never worn!
You are who you are and no matter what you look like on the outside the important stuff is on the inside...and you my lovely Weemam are full of sweetness...And that's all that is important to me.Hugs

OMG...I was in pain just reading what you went through to get that thing on! I guess if you want a good aerobic exercise, just put on and take off one of those a couple of times a day. LOL. And leave it to your darling hubby to ask that question. I laughed by butt off when I read that. You made my day with that hon. (Now make sure you don't hurt yourself getting in and out of those, ok? LOL)

Stockings are not very common in this part of the world and I've seen the usual ones only in pictures. The type that you've mentioned, I've not seen them in pictures as well. However, I would comment, "how you go to the loo", as a first thing to ask before anything else, lol, completely normal working male brain.

I have seen these on the the telly and I thought everyone likes to look good when they go out with your special man but what happens if things get a little romantic I sort of think this sort of thing wouldn't exactly be a turn on for a fella....:) I guess you could use it as a contraceptive, meaning you will stop anything from happening just so he won't see what your wearing.....:O

HAHAHAHA God bless ya weehun for making me giggle so much just now! I've bought these monstrosities in the past and looked at myself in the mirror and nearly pee'd myself laughing at myself. I'm also quite a "2chunky bird" LOL! My hubby always says he prefers to have something to hold onto but I don't think I'll be trying these body stocking things in a hurry again!
LOL I'm still grinning at your discussion!

Okay so I read this discussion with tears of laughter streaming down my face. it reminded me of a conversation I had with my mother when she bought one LOL.
She told me she took it out and looked at it and thought she wouldn't even get one leg into it LOL.
Thanks for sharing and bringing back the memories :)

Wow.. I must say you did give a very interesting description putting on that stuff. Since you have already invested in it, use it. I guess there is real comfort with the stuff on.
At a friend's insistence, I did try out something like it. The feeling was nice after putting it on. It looks good and slim. Perhaps the salesgirl was good, she was very convincing and I nearly burnt a hole in my wallet. However, looking at the hole in the wallet was more agonising. I still think of the suit though.

Online shopping channels can be hazardous to your health, or at least to your dignity. Three cheers to you for giving it a try, though. I needed a good laugh, and it would be just as funny on me. Shall we make an exercise video based on this program?

Oh yes I know that you are a cuddly granny, I have heard of body stocking though. Oh dear Weemam you make me laugh how would you think you would fit into that. I think that it must of been a great exercise and it is so funny this discussion. I bet that you had best leave it for awhile before attempting the black one. LOL!!

Oh, that was really hilarious! Sorry about that, but I know it's a serious matter, too. I have also experienced buying on impulse (in the mall) a body girdle that goes from the chest down to the thighs. Well, I was in a hurry and the saleslady told me that it would surely fit me. When I got home, I couldn't get into it! Like you, I have lost lots of calories (or should I say water weight because I really sweat a lot at the time) just from trying to get in and out of the darned girdle! I never have worn it at all.
