Whilst I have my new lease of life with the new medication, I have been looking at some new shapewear - I found these particularly interesting. Being on the bigger side, I need something like these to hold everything in, but also they will also work as a good "Tucker" if you get my drift?

Anyway girls, I was thinking what is your experience of using shapewear, if your fortunate enough to have to use it?

I guess they would do the job...as the very pleasant peasant pheasant tucker? Though in my view you are better getting shapewear with legs - that way the "pheasant" doesn't fall out.

Best of all is in all one without a bra (BYOB), which smooths out your tum. Some of those you can buy with legs, though a normal panty bottom is OK for the tucker. I have attached a link to a US site to illustrate the BYOB.

The other thing is just get an old fashioned panty girdle - Playtex do them and if you check out E Bay you can find very firm control (55% lycra) for between £15 and £20.

I love wearing shapewear when wearing a form fitting dress - one of those clingy ones which needs my lumps and bumps to be smoothed out.

As to what to wear in the boudoir...well that is another topic.
