I want flabuless arms

I want flabuless arms
Beauty Cred on Oct 28, 2008

It's my 1 year anniversary of yoga practice -- the downward dogs are paying off.  Yoga does tighten up loose body parts but I still don't love my arms.  The back of my arms have decided (convinced they have a mind of their own) to stay loose and large. 

Tempted to try a new undergarment called FLABuLESS that slims, conceals and re-shapes the arms - think Spanx shapewear for the arms.

FLABuLESS founder, Lee Ann Stevenson, clearly understands that I'm not the only woman who has Madonna arm envy.

Stevenson states:  “I noticed that many shapewear companies have developed products that focus on providing a slimming effect to the lower and mid-region of the body, while not even acknowledging the arms, an area that more than half of women are most self-conscious about. How can we ignore this group of women that collectively make up such a large demographic of the shoppers in today’s retail stores?”

Slimpressions makes a much more comfortable slimming shapewear for the arms, back and midriff. After you try them, my guess is you will want to buy them over the competitors. I know I did!

You might want to try Nouveau Cosmeceuticals "Slimming and Sculpting Body Solution". I also had that extra Flab that I had a hard time getting rid of and with this product along with exercise(light weights)I can wear sleeveless with confidence.:)

How about lifting weights that are 20-30 pounds for 3 sets of repetitions every other day? Buying slimming clothes that "hold in" your fat and actually cause your muscles to be that much lazier and limper (because they are not being utilized) is a shallow trend. The statement: "How can we ignore this group of women that collectively make up such a large demographic of the shoppers in today’s retail stores?” clearly states that manufacturers and even designers are more worried about playing to women's insecurities than promoting a healthy body image. Why would you endorse someone who wants you to remain weak so that they can sucker you in to buying their products? Ladies, please realize that you are wasting your time and money investing in these types of garments and that flabby arms will never bring about negative attention from others; only from yourself. Accentuate your positive features and forget there were any negative ones in the first place!
