    I wear Spanx sometimes when I want to make sure that I look "smooth" (no rolls or bulges), but they aren't very comfortable so I usually only do that on special occassions.

    Are you just needing something for a certain outfit or are you asking if it will help you lose weight/spot reduce your stomach? Because wearing a girdle/corset/etc to spot reduce your stomach won't work. You can't spot reduce like that. Your stomach will only decrease as you lose weight and body fat.

    I have a lot of extra skin and jiggle. Lol I guess im considered skinny fat. I bought a get the skinny on tummy tank at walmart on a whim. Ive since bought 4 more. They work like a charm! For me it smoothes out my tummy and muffin top. When I was heavier it actually made me look 10lbs smaller. And they are only 16 bucks! I highly recomend them.. They really help me keep things toghether.

    As I was losing I wore compression garments during high impact aerobics to prevent the loose skin and fat rolls from bouncing excessively, which could have caused mechanical damage to the connective tissue fibers in my skin and prevented it from shrinking as much as it could. I think that was probably worth doing from a health and fitness standpoint. Other than that I think it's primarily a cosmetic issue.
