    every time I commit to this I get pregnant then it goes all out the door


    That definitely won't be an issue!

    I love corsets and I really want to waist train, but would like to lose a lot of weight first - like at least 40lbs or so

    I wouldn't mind to try it just for the posture help alone. I have horrid posture.

    I thought I had made my way to the wrong website. Corset/waist training sounds like bondage to me! haha

    Hey, you can be into fitness and still be into BDSM! lol

    Honestly most of mine came from the corsetry community on lj secondhand. There are also a lot of high quality gorgeous corsets on etsy.com

    Some sites to consider:
    http://www.starkers.com
    http://www.corsetmaker.net
    http://www.blooddrop.com/category_6/Corsetry.htm
    http://www.wildehunt.com
    http://www.electradesigns.net/
    http://bibianblue.com/shop/en/
    http://www.madamesher.com
    http://www.moruadesigns.com

    And I cannot vouch for their quality at all, but if you're on a budget this place seems okay.
    http://orchardcorsets.com

    Tagging this as the info will be useful for some of my friends. (NOTE: Saw that someone else said orchardcorsets are good for the price)
    Part of the reason I am working on losing the fat is I wear tights at the St. Louis Ren Faire...which has this and next week to go (Still hoping we get at least one rain free weekend out of the four)
    I don't mind people laughing at my antics, but have no desire to have them laughing at the funny fat guy in rainbow tights.

    Love, love, LOVE my corsets for ren faire/steampunk/pirate events, but never got into the waist training aspect. While I love wearing them, there is also something very satisfying about that "bodicegasm" one gets at the end of a long day...

    ETA: A lot of good info on this thread as well -- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/836507-tight-lacing-waist-training-corseting

    Bumping for later. Been wanting a good corset for a while (for fashion/foreplay :wink: not for waist training) but I want a *GOOD* corset, so it'll have to wait till I have some spare cash....that isn't being spent on a new tattoo instead... :laugh:

    Ah, I used to live in the STL area and frequented the faire there, does the guy draped in a whole cow hide/wearing a kilt still go every weekend? I always wanted to tell him how badass he is! Any faire I go to now I miss the criers yelling "friiiiiiiied piiiiickles!" lol apparently that is NOT a country wide staple.

    Yes to the first, as well as our resident pretty boy/elf who has been used as a model for a couple of romance novel covers.
    Fried pickles are still here, and the "OMG how can that be so good" fried pop tarts, oreos, strawberries dipped in chocolate, and all of the rest. I avoid their booths like the plague as they will give me anything I want for free which is so not the way to lose the tummy.

    Here's one of my corsets. pardon the fact that the sun seems to be dissolving my arm on the left, my webcam is really bad with bright lights and there was a window behind me.

    Wow! Never really seen one before...only heard about them.

    There is something really sexy about this pic. Really sexy. :wink:

    I'm on day one of waist training! I'm in my underbust from Corset Story, but omg I'm having trouble! Wow it's so hard to breathe. Any tips on how to adjust?

    I've seen such different advice on how long to wear, etc. so I'm trying for as long as I can handle... I'm also pretty limited on what work clothes I can wear over this thing...

    Rambling! Any advice would be hugely welcome!

    I'm a big fan and enthusiast but just can't fork over the money with my intentions to lose weight. One day I hope to work on training myself.
