I’m wearing it right now!
By DynomiteWins
I purchased this vest because I was tired of sentiment lumpy in my daily work clothing. I’m not obese or overweight, but I don’t have a body to die for and have always been shaped more like a boy (no curves.)
I’m 5’9, 135lbs with most of my fat carried in my belly area, so I purchased a medium. At initial I could hardly squeeze my chubby tubby into the basi set of hooks. I wore it for regarding an hour and it was a tight feel, but not uncomfortable at all. After regarding 2 hours, I thought I’d undertake and go down to the next level hook and it genuinely wasn’t too difficult to do. Now I wear it each day for at least 8 hours while I am at work (it also helps the back – I haven’t had pain from sitting in my desk chair the entire time I’ve been wearing it.)
At first, after 8 hours of wearing it, I would find that my body maintains the shape this vest gives me for regarding an hour when I took it off. Now I’ve been wearing the vest for a week and my shape is already altering ( I haven’t lost dramatic inches, but I’ve got a curve!!!!) I don’t like wearing it right versus my skin because I do sweat a lot – I got a ton of thin tank tops and wear that under and I still sweat, but it doesn’t feel as slimy.
After a week, my body has become used to this shape that wearing this vest is no longer feels very tight and in truth seems finelooking natural. The only downside is that the vest doesn’t go underneath some sleeveless tops – the straps are huge and if you don’t have them adjusted right, they may dig into your armpits (I have mine at the longest length and they are comfortable.) This vest also does wonders for the breasts – I have an intermediate chest B-C cup, but they perk right up (my theory is that all the jigglies have been squished from my stomach area and into my [...] – tee hee)
I also ordered the Squeem waist cincher in a little so I could undertake and transition to an even littler waist. That one is good as well, but the vest does a better occupation of all over smoothness. You won’t have back fat popping out the top or bottom. The vest goes down a long ways so you won’t have it rolling up at all. I use the waist cincher when I want to wear a sleeveless top and it gives a nice shape.
I haven’t modified diet or exercise yet, but I plan to do that to get more dramatic results.

My 3rd one!
By T. Yewell
I have been enjoying this product for years. I had weight loss surgery 5 years ago and applied it when I initial had surgery. It helped with protecting the incision and my self selfassurance (from the sagging skin). Now 5 years later I find myself using it again because I’ve opted out of plastic surgery (at least for now) and I do take delight in how shapely it makes me look.
Only complaints are – it have a tendancy to roll up at the bottom (if you tend to be more pear-shaped) and occasionally the fasteners show through your blouse (if you wear clingy material). But besides that – I love it!

Couldn’t Love It More
By C. White
I’ve tried so a lot of girdles and shapeware with little effect and much disappointment over the years. Though I’m “only” 15 lbs. overweight, I’ve never had much of a waist to speak of and it was wide – always around 30″, presently around 34″. After 4 children and a body type that stores weight in my middle, I have had difficultness looking good in gorgeous much everything. The newer jean styles just heighten my problem (the old muffin-top syndrome), and in skirts and dresses, I just looked frumpy and dumpy. Past items have just squeezed the fat up over the top or out the bottom, with negligible tummy flattening – very unattractive and uncomfortable to boot. So it was with trepidation and uttermost skepticism that I ordered this product.
I’m so happy to report that this vest has given me the figure I never had even before I had children! The vest style held the fat from spilling over the top, and the length keeps it from spilling out the bottom. It veritably COMPRESSES and without doubt or question gives rise to a waist. I can’t adequately express how wondrous it feels to have a waist that looks realistic and sexy. And these modern jeans now look FANTASTIC on me.
It is very tight, but not uncomfortably so. I was used to mine within minutes, and altho conscious I was wearing it, it wasn’t uncomfortable at all. Just make sure you get the right size – keep YOUR measurements and your noesis of your body in mind when you look at sizes. On the height/weight measurement chart, my size was supposedly Medium, but that chart didn’t speak to my strange proportions and predominantly abdominal weight problem. According to the bust/waist/hip proportionality chart, I was supposedly a 1X. I am 5’7″, 145 lbs., wear size 9, have a 40D bust, a 34″ waist, and 38″ hips – not rather a 1x. I chose the LARGE, which I was capable to firmly attach on the second set of fasteners (with effort), it fit me utterly and without any delay gave the desired effect.
You will want to have numerous strength in your hands to firmly attach this, or the support of an individual who does. As others have said, this product isn’t for very clingy, see-through, or downright tight tops or dress bodices – though you may get away with it in dark, solid colors and shirred fabrics. Spaghetti straps also will not work with the vest, so for outfits like that you may just want the cincher – though that may cause the “back-fat” thing for some women. Sitting may be a little weird looking in pants or tight dress (it unquestionably inspires good sitting posture), but looser costume (remember “loose” does not equivalent “shapeless” – you may wear tapered costume and your good figure shows through), darker colors, or a sweater/vest/shawl…strategically placed purse, solves that. 
I don’t count any of these as a negatives versus the product even though – there is only so much an outer garment may do. For me, I’m more than willing to make wardrobe adjustments (slightly looser tops, wider straps on sleeveless tops, solid/dark colors for tighter tops/bodices, shirred fabrics, wearing a camisole to hide fasteners) to receive pleasure from this extraordinary product. You may compensate for looser tops/bodices, with a lower neckline (this product lifts the boobs great!), and tops that are tapered without being form-fitting.
I wholeheartedly commend this product – it is worth each cent, and when you figure in renewed self-esteem, so much more!
UPDATE: I in the long run got back to this review, lol. I didn’t lose any weight, but that in all likelihood has more to do with my thyroid issues than the product. As with some things, it’s all individual. I purchased the 1x for my daughter who had her baby a year ago, and she HAS lost weight – she wears a Large like me now.
I wanted to offer galore counsel concerning the use of lotions and the rubber smell that may get on your skin – wear a light tank top amongst your skin and the vest and only implement lotions to areas the vest does not cover.
If you buy some snug, full size panty briefs (or Spanx, or something along those lines), they may go over the bottom edge of the vest and keep it more securely in your pants. I prefer high waist pants in general, but when that’s not what’s going on, I do the snug brief thing. You could likewise just buy a ‘spandexy’ cheap tube girdle and wear it a little lower to hold the bottom in place better as well if you’re more of a thong kind of girl.
And lastly, if you occasionally feel that your breasts are just a little too perky while wearing this product, you may put on a sports bra to tone it down a bit. With a black sports bra OVER the vest AND your normal bra (also in black), you have the bottom “layer” for that layered tank-top look. Trust me, it looks great.
In short, play around a bit find the tricks and tips to accentuate your squeem experience!
