Slack muscles & support clothing

[Guest guest]

>>When I quit wearing the darn thing then stuff

started slacking! <<

And I think that was just timing not anything to do with the support of the

girdle. Actually I am proof of that theory. I have a 44 inch bustline and am 50

years old. I have worn a bra about 2 weeks in my entire life. My breasts do not

sag! People seeing me do not know I am not wearing one! Doctors are amazed when

they find I haven't one on... LOL I also never wore girdles and till I was 23 my

abdomen was a flat as a pancake. It was weight from hypo and the following

muscle wasting then two abdominal surgeries that ruined my flat tummy, nothing

at all to do with clothing. Also when we are younger we are conscious of our

tummies bulging so we tend to USE those muscles to hold it in thus keeping them

in shape. As we age and stop worrying so much about what people think of us

(LOL) we tend to stop the muscle contractions that used to hold it in & lose

that muscle tone. I have had back trouble sine my early 20's which prevented me

doing sit ups or other abdominal exercises. THAT hurt my build alot too!

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and

cackling, telling me, " You're next. " They stopped after I started doing the

same thing to them at funerals
