Workout Clothes

How many of you all bought compression tops or bottoms for working out? I am wondering where I can get some at my size- about a woman's 24 (plus). I have always had a bigger midsection that anything else and could use some help from compression clothing- and could use some warmth since surgery left me so cold natured!!! Any source suggestions appreciated.

I'm vain when it comes to my stomach. I don't want to lift or reach for something and you can see my belly (not pretty!!). I wear a one piece swim suit under my workout clothes. Tummy doesn't show, I don't jiggle as much, don't even have to wear a bra. Then if I decide to swim, I'm ready.0

I don't know specifically about compression tops and bottoms, but Junonia is an online catalog specifically for plus size women's workout clothes. Also, Just My Size has a selection of workout clothes. It isn't as extensive as Junonia's, but it is cheaper.0

Athleta and Nordstrom both have a small but decent selection of plus size workout clothes. I like the Zella line at Nordstrom a lot.0

Is there a difference between work out compression garments and spanx?!?0

I was trying to find some compression sleeves because I have so much loose skin on my arms now. I found a small selection online when I googled them, but I will have to measure my arms to make sure they fit! The other thing I have been looking for that could work in place of the compression sleeves are workout shirts with elbow length or 3/4 sleeves to cover up my arms, but I mostly find either short or long sleeves.0

This is one area where it helps being tall, the mens Underarmor longsleeve tops work well for me... for holding in arms and belly. Of course I only buy when way on sale at Marshalls or Nordstrom Rack! Women's tops are always too short in the sleeves and trunk. But... a decent price on compression type camisoles was at Costco, I think about $12 each. I wear these under some lightweight dress shirts and sometimes for workouts. These don't come in bigger sizes though, I got them after I'd already lost over 50lbs.0
