My thoughts for the day: How are yoga pants SUPPOSED to fit,(panty line? or no panty line?) and is it a crime to wear them in public? I've been over weight for so long and would wear baggy clothes to hide my body. I'm in a size small now and still feel like I should hide my shape. I'm 44yrs. old, married, living in a small town and have 2 teenaged kids. Would love to be the "hot mom" with the rockin' bod. But maybe I should just steer clear of tight fitting clothes and save the hot bod for hubby?

    You should find a happy medium. Rock that hot bod but in a classy way! You earned it right?!

    I say no panty line..and it's ok to wear in public as long as they're in good condition and fit well. And I agree with pecoch...you earned it...why hide it under baggy clothes? You can be modest and still look great...

    I live in gym clothes and could care less if anyone else likes it. Granted I try to make myself look as put together as possible when wearing them --like prior posts said, as long as they fit & look good, it's fine!

    YOU EARNED that body, rock whatever makes you feel comfortable!!

    && ps. NO Panty lines - EVER- no matter what the attire ;)

    I love yoga pants! If you worried about not seeming 'modest' enough just pair them with a looser top. I think they only look scandalous when they are super tight and paired with a mid-drift halter or something, haha!

    Nothing should ever show a panty line. That is why God gave us thongs, ladies!

    Just go try a bunch on :)

    I've found some are thicker than others (so no panty line, or something way less noticeable), and there's definitely a range of how form-fitting they are

    Plus I've seen a few girls who look okay, but when they bend some and the material stretches... totally see-through.

    Definitely go for it, but just try them on!

    I have a less generous name for the inventor of thongs :)

    When I'm pushing myself to the limit, the last thing I want to worry about is a string getting wedged further and further up my backside. Just get something on the thicker side and you won't see the lines regardless. Or just deal with the lines. I'm working out, it's not a fashion show.

    Eh don't worry about it. Wear yoga pants that fit right and don't worry about panty lines. I NEVER wear thongs because I hate them (I just think they're gross and uncomfortable.) I wear boyshort underwear to cut down on VPL, but whatever, people can deal if they see anything. We all (or most) wear underwear after all.

    I wear yoga pants to the gym and for lounging around at home. I honestly find it to be tacky when I see women wearing them in public.. like people that shop at Walmart in their PJs.. that's just me though *shrug*

    Wearing yoga pants as casualwear is not acceptable for a grown woman. Lounging around the house on a lazy Saturday? Sure. Gardening? Go nuts. Actually doing yoga? Perfect. But if you plan to go out in public, dress like an adult.

    Thongs, strings or commando no reason to suffer with panty lines.

    As for yoga pants in public it's not for me. For working out or lounging around the house they are great.

    Do what makes you feel good about yourself.
