What are you hoping to achieve if you were to do it?4

No. I like my organs where they are.22

I sure am using copy/paste a lot today. WTH is going on?7 -
A waist trainer is an ugly corset. Not meant for working out. Doesn't do much other than rearrange your innards.6

No- I'd rather strengthen my core than weaken it and possibly damage my organs.9

Right? This keeps up, I'm going to end up with a concussion.
OP, waist trainers do nothing. What little effect you might see is all temporary illusion.3 -
No need to rude. Just asked.9

Sometimes people forget that not everyone has been around to see all the threads like this. For people who have been here a few months or more there seems to be someone asking about waist training, corsets, or something similar every day.
The reality is that they're not effective for slimming your waist/stomach and when used during exercise they're potentially dangerous. Sadly celebrities get paid well to pretend they work and people buy into it.21 -
Love it. I work in a warehouse so I wear it 10 hours a day it helps me sweat the belly and back fat and gives me curves for days without the trainer26

Nope. Looks terribly painful and unnecessary since any after effects will be temporary.0

If I get two & wrap them around my thighs, can I finally get rid of my thigh fat? I swear I'm going to look like Skeletor from the waist up by the time my thighs aren't jiggly.9

Plastic surgeons swear by them.. they call them compression garments. It doesn't help with weight loss. Only aesthetic shape. Same with plastic surgery. The reason I know this is that I lost 130 lbs and had a lot of skin I had to get removed. So I got an abdominoplasty. The doc had me use a compression garment for months to acquire a better shape, (and it's a comfort from some pain and swelling as well) that said, I'm not sure how it effects someone who needs to lose weight. I used one in the very beginning while I worked out to keep my belly from jiggling right when I was trying to go left while doing aerobics. Very helpful. I avoided a lot of sprains that way8

I'm with you on that! I'm looking great on top since my skin surgery but my thighs are still looking like a melted candle. The surgery was so tough that I decided I am just going to live with my thighs the way they are.. so hopefully swimsuits with skirts will stay in style for a long time5 -

IMO you are better off keeping/improving the core strength & ab muscles you have, rather than losing it for lack of use.3

I wear an abdominal binder but not for weightblose purposes but rather to help protect myself from developing a hernia and to conceal my ileostomy. It sucks that everyone assumes if you are wearing a belly band or binder that you have fallen for the pseudoscientific weight loss claims.5

Fat may not sweat out, but water and toxins do. That can leave a person feeling much more energetic and that can lead to more activity which leads to...,.
Yes.. weight loss!!
Sometimes we need to stop and look at the BIGGER picture. The idea is to feel better in order to do more with our lives.. not just get skinny.
I think if something is working, even psychosomatically, go at it!!!
