Cheapest Squeem Rubber High Back Waist Cincher Girdle Style 26J

I was excited to get this and for the most part I like it.

Just a couple of issues.

The straps dig into the front side of my arms (on the side of the bra straps) and they leave welts. I thought maybe I had them too tight, so I loosened them... no luck. Maybe my b00bs are too big and it pulls (or push) on them... I don't know :o) but no matter the adjustment, they really dig into my skin and it leaves marks.

Second issue I have is that when I put it on, I can't breathe. Maybe this is a good thing, but I literally feel like someone is sitting on my chest; it even hurts a little. This is a somewhat "small" issue and I can live with it.

Another reviewer mentioned that it makes the "rolls" show on your back. Well, yeah!!! If you happen to be a little big, like I am (I'm still trying to lose my "baby" fat - I got a size xxl), of course it doesn't take them away. You will not look like you have a nice, smooth "skinny" back. There's only so much this garment can do... and it doesn't perform miracles. It does take away your belly, so you can wear tops and it looks like you have a waist. It will not make you wear a smaller size pant though. It does make you walk straight and your gait and posture is improved.

I got one for my mom in a size large and she absolutely loves it. She won't take it off except at night. I only use it when I go out.

All in all, a great product. If only those straps didn't bother me so much, and if it didn't hurt to breathe, it would get another star from me.

U P D A T E: I ended up selling this after about two months of having it. My chest hurt more and more, I couldn't breathe (no I didn't get a size too small - I got the correct size) and the welts it was leaving on my arms were a bit too much. Awesome product but not for me. I switched to the Maidenform Women's Firm Control Back Slimming Camisole and I like it better. It's not as firm as the Squeem, but it doesn't hurt when I breathe or when I wear it and it still shows I have a waist.Get more detail about Squeem Rubber High Back Waist Cincher Girdle Style 26J.
