Not many products live up to my expectations but this product is fantastic! I have been trying to lose the same pesky 15 pounds for years and couldn't. I took a chance and bought a Squeem in March 2012 and by June 2012 I had lost 15 lbs just by wearing it every single day and there is something about the rubber that draws extra water out of your body. It also makes you LOOK 1-2 sizes smaller. It is tight but not too tight to be uncomfortable if you buy the right size. Simply buy the size you normally wear in clothes.  I highly recommend the Squeem and it really helps you lose weight without the headache of dieting.
