How often do people wear magic knickers??

I'm not big/not small size 10 but have a bit of a tummy which looks so much better when I get the old spanx on!

Depends on what I'm wearing, but if I have a little knitted dress or tunic, for example, I always think this would look better with magic knickers as I would have a more streamlined shape. I have never yet though worn magic knickers for day time!

Is it a slippery slope?
Do many people actually wear magic underwear during the day?

You will probably quite rightly tell me to do something about my tummy, but at the end of the day I'm shattered and it's all I can do to walk the dog - so sit ups etc don't happen!

The fact that I was wearing them every time I went to my p/t job just so my trousers would fit was a large factor in me deciding to lose weight and join the gym 3 weeks ago Blush.

I've now lost 8lbs and plan on losing another stone and haven't worn the magic nags since starting Smile.

I wear magic knickers if the outift demands it - yes, during the daytime also! But my spanx are a bit superpowered for daytime use so I wear a different brand, that have been through the wash a lot, are more forgiving and allow me to go to the loo more easily!

Some of my tights have enough smoothing power to do the job without the magic knickers.

I have been wearing mine in the daytime but have lost weight and they are starting to slide. I don't want the superpowered effect but find dresses hang better over them as mine are highwaisted. I think I need a slip instead.

When I start wearing them regularly, I know I need to lose weight. Generally just wear them under occasion wear and on the odd night out if not wearing tights that hold me in

Only when going out - although could do with the help on a daily basis
