Get this at least 2 sizes bigger.  For me, I endured it to an extent bc it does wonders.  The leg part wasn't easy to conceal.  I am "thick". Not fat & not slim. Under jeans I can see where the tights end. It's not a good look. And the edges dug into my skin like a bra that is too tight. I have since purchased another (2 sizes bigger) & it's a better fit, but still squeezes my legs. So now I. Working on slimming my body down rather than buying bigger clothes.

Worth a try
