TESTIMONIAL FROM A BELLY BANDIT USER I gained 3 stone whilst pregnant (a baby and a lot of chocolate hob nobs) and after having my little boy by emergency C-section I was left with a very swollen mummy tummy. For the past 6 weeks I have been testing the belly bandit. At first I was a bit skeptical but willing to try anything. They say: “The Belly Bandit is an abdominal compression binder designed to help you get your body back to its former fabulousness post childbirth.” Sounds good to me. So I got it out the box and after a bit of help from the other half I was all wrapped up and good to go. The people at Belly Bandit recommend that you wear it day and night for 6 – 8 weeks post-delivery only taking it off to shower. I found that at first I couldn’t wear it all day but as I got used to it I was wearing it for longer and longer periods though I’ve never worn it at night. For the first week I didn’t look that different and I was a bit disappointed but I could tell that it was doing some good because when I took it off I could feel my belly loosen and flob over the top of my leggings. After persevering I began to see a result every week, to the point where you can clearly see (from my before and after pics) that there has been a huge change. The more I wore it the less flob effect I got hoorah!! Though there is still work to do my belly feels tighter and less like a mummy tummy. Also not only has the Belly bandit made a difference to my waistline it has improved my posture immensely. I hadn’t realised quite how bad my posture was whilst breast feeding until I started wearing it but now I sit up straight eliminating back and shoulder ache. My only complaint is the Belly Bandit comes in 5 sizes and I must admit I found the sizing a bit confusing which is a shame as I think it is very important to get the right one to ensure maximum results. So I have to say I agree with their claim: “The Belly Bandit will aid in getting you back to your pre pregnancy hotness faster than ever!” It has certainly made a difference for me. Now I just need to get a smaller size so I can continue to use it!!! Him: The Belly Bandit eh? Ok then, what I can say will be limited and my personal brand of pseudo-scepticism probably wont be well-received in a world of will-do-anything-to-get-thin-again-mothers will it?! Wouldn’t she be thinner after 6 weeks of normal life without it? It did definitely do wonders for posture and if I leave my cynicism to one side the facts, numbers and pictures don’t lie – she’s ‘thinner’. However, remember this – it’s a girdle – a stretchy piece of Velcro and elastic (and it costs how much?!). William Shatner wears girdles. Enough said. I am very much looking forwards to the follow up to this product and if they don’t make it perhaps I will – wait for it… you guessed it…. The ‘arse bandit’. Or do they exist already?! Overall: 9/10 We would definitely recommend!! Get the right size and you are on the road to post pregnancy hotness!! thebabybubbleblog.blogspot.co.uk/2010/11/review-belly-bandit.html
