    the only thing that helps you lose weight is diet and exercise. Spanx can make your jiggly bits look smaller though :laugh:

    No, has nothing to do with weight loss. It's a body control. It just sucks you in or smoothes you out (especially if you're wearing a tight dress).

    It might help with the psychological part (if it makes you look better are you more likely to eat/exercise better?), but it does nothing for you physically.

    I hear that they can help with the loose skin problem if you wear them during a workout. Not sure how true that is though, but they do not help you lose weight.

    The only thing spandex does is push all the fat up, making you look like you have a muffintop.

    ^ this!

    If it works as a psychological tool then yes.

    Arnold Schwarzenegger used to hate his legs. They were small and they didn't compliment the rest of his body. He said that he started wearing really short shots so that he'd see them in the mirrors in the gym so he'd be motivated to go train his legs so that they'd be in proportion.

    I have a theory about pants: If you wear pants with elastic waist bands then you'll "eat into" them.

    If you wear a belt or pants that don't expand then you'll notice when you're getting fatter and you'll be motivated to start losing weight.

    Um no but the 1 time I wore one under a mermaid style formal dress it helped me breath slower and harder. I couldn't sit right either. Then I had to pee out of that dreaded hole in the crotch area. Ew.
