By that, i mean the knickers that supposedly suck you in, in all the right places.

Does anyone recommend any ?

Basically, i have bought a dress that i wish to wear in Jan, but it does make me look slightly pregnant. I want something that will keep my tummy in.

BUT - what i dont want it for the fatty bits to become a roll over the top of the pants - and give me a muffin top through my dress.

If you don't want a 'muffin top' I would get some that come all the way up to just below your boobs! You'll look super slim!!

Cor - they look fantastic. I will have to buy some.

In all my years ive never felt ashamed of my bod, and my imperfections - but im seeing my sister (who i havent seen in 5 years) and she is HUGELY critical of everyone. I dont want her looking me up and down and seeing 'fat bird'. I want to look and feel confident.

Well, i just ordered some. Struggled a little with the sizing chart. I was just on the line between a C and a D. But, I read the reviews, and everyone (nearly everyone) seemed to recommend buying them slightly smaller if poss so I bought the C.

I bought the ones that go right up to your bra, and a lot of reviewers recommended tucking it slightly under your bra as the back can roll .... but not the front.

I cant wait. I have a couple of functions to go to in Jan, and i hope to feel a million dollars ..... and hopefully i can eat one or two extra mince pies and STILL look slim

I hope they fit & you look fab in them

Don't worry about your imperfections - every one has them! I don't think anyone is 100% happy with themselves.

The best ones are the Marks and Sparks- firm hold stomach ones. They are amazing and much cheaper than the alternatives.

Hi Porcupine!

Please report back when you have got them, I am thinking of getting some myself, but like you I don't want the 'muffin top' effect, so I guess control pants up to the bra is the right way to go, I hope they work and are comfy.

As for having one or two extra mince pies than you normally do, go for it, unless your normal consumption is 10 pies and you are hoping to eat 11 or 12 in one sitting! heehee

I got some Trinny and Susannah ones... they do the trick! They are the ones that go right up under your bra... so no muffin top!
