It can weaken your core muscles, it can mess up your spine, it can push around your internal organs... Not good and not worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1956049 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:20:07 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1956049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Synchronicity: a bunch of internal organ before &amp; after diagrams and x rays pop up, but who knows if the diagrams are actually real. Dr. Oz said prolonged Spanx &amp; the like is bad, so I can only imagine these super tight corsets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1956047 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:17:58 +0000 pinkcupcake 1956047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That does not look healthy... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1956043 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:13:49 +0000 Synchronicity 1956043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: Ouch! I'm sure their organs are loving that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1956041 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:12:01 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1956041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's the thing Kim K and Blac Chyna do. </p> [attach=3033/14/nfgag1.458x320.kl3g1_Gp9FaJ613jui_6Rz07QaczhpSUeHOG-24NsIInFA-w459-h320-nc.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1956035 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:04:34 +0000 Snowdrop 1956035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know that it doesn't redistribute fat and can only work by damaging organs (displacing them and eventually changing their shape). PP girdles are different though, they just provide support for your muscles whilst they recover. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955997 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 11:23:48 +0000 snowjewelz 1955997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only know Kim K is obsessed with this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955993 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 11:20:28 +0000 Mrs. Train 1955993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with @blackbird: I thought waist training was using a tight laced corset to squeeze your waist in. It is completely different from a pp wrap. It can cause all kinds of internal organ issues since it squeezes everything into a small hour glass shape. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955860 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 09:00:08 +0000 blackbird 1955860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Actual waist training is done with a lace up corset, it's not post partum wraps....Im assuming that's what OP meant...postpartum wraps aren't dangerous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955781 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 06:03:30 +0000 Orchid 1955781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>TMI, but I get really gassy if I wear anything too tight. I hate anything squeezing me about the waist. I agree with @blackbird: I don't think it's a really healthy thing to do. I'm not talking about a belly band postpartum though. I tried to use one of those but even that was too much for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955775 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 04:14:49 +0000 rachiecakes 1955775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used a wrap postpartum. It helped my posture and because I had diastasis recti it made me feel like my internal organs weren't just flopping around. I could probably use it again as I sit all day for work and my core isn't strong like it was pre-pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955733 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:53:59 +0000 littleblessings 1955733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used a girdle type thing for a bit. Kinda help get my figure back faster. I mainly used it for back pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955731 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:46:09 +0000 blackbird 1955731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seems kinda crazy and potentially dangerous to me. And hella uncomfortable </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/waist-training#post-1955638 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 22:38:49 +0000 stiletto_mom 1955638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just heard about this the other day. Do any of you ladies waist train (pre or even post pregnancy)? What does it entail? What kind of results do you see? What resources and information is there? Why do you do it? </p>
