I bought this to help hide my freshman-fifteen lovehandles in tighter clothing. After reading the rave reviews I was excited to get it. I immediately put it on and could barely breathe. Not that I was expecting this to feel like a t-shirt, but there's no way I could have worn that for any period of time. Maybe it would have relaxed in the wash, but I wasn't willing to find out. I got the black color in medium size and I'm 5'4" about 130 pounds. I wear a C cup bra, which is a little big for my body size so maybe that's why it was so uncomfortable. In the five minutes I had it on, I was disappointed to see my lovehandles were still very visible. I've been working out and dieting, this was just an in-between kind of fix, so I guess it's back to my workouts!
