It's funny how the position for boot-licking is so close to the one used for curb-stomping.

IIRC yeah they suppress your appetite and encourage you to eat less.  Since they're, you know, squeezing your insides out.

I can't wear anything like that for an extended period of time due to my phlebitis.  :(  Blood clots bad.

Yes.

When I've tight-laced before if I ate too much it made me want to throw up. It's like a lap-band, only surgery not required!

Bah .. I've been doing this crap since I was knee high to an acorn. It's how I keep my lovely squirrelish figure.

starving+feeling faint because you can't breathe=awesome

I too like to pretend I'm an Ethiopian villager at very very high altitude.

Yesterday I wore the sucker for 6 hours. I'm going to put it on today as well. I already can't eat as much as I typically would without it on and I think it's starting to push my floaty ribs in more. I can now close the top of it after I've been wearing it for a while and the fabric warms up/my body adjusts, but my hips are too big for the bottom, which is fine. I can't wear it closed all day, because that would be really uncomfortable, so I leave about a 2" gap in the laces. Just enough to feel compressed, but nothing that is really putting pressure on my lungs or my ability to function normally.

Once I can get up to 8 hours of wear (6 hours was pushing it yesterday, I wasn't quite ready for it.) I'm going to try to wear it at work.

I have to admit, the back support is AWESOME. Not slouching is a big plus.
