Okay Id first like to note that these are SUPPOSED to be tight yall, otherwise its not going to suck in anything lol. That being said, this is one of the best fat girl products I own. Im 52 148 lbs, Ive had a baby, I like beer, so I have some mom pudge/beer pudge goin on and this sucks all that in. I had a romper that was a little bit too short and put this on and now it fits like a glove. Deff recommend going with your normal size, I wear a large/medium and this is perfect on the last set of hooks (Im hoping to lose a little weight lol)
