Leggings for exercise for the seriously flabby of tummy

Looking for a decent pair of leggings for exercise - running, circuits that involve jumping around etc... Issue I have is that I have a major apron tummy that flaps around the place so much it makes me want to stop exercising altogether. I've lost nearly 3 stone weight this year, but it doesn't look its going to shift, its just more... well, deflated

Anyway, I'm wondering would a decent pair of compression leggings help? Any recommendations? I would be a size 16 in M&S workout gear at the minute. Willing to spend a bit if they would stop the flap!

I just got a pair of CRZ ones as recommended here and you know, not bad at all. Fabric feels exactly the same as some Lululemons I have. Will see how they last but first impression is good value for money.

If you are on Instagram there is a woman there under Trisha'sTransformation who is a size 18 coming down from a size in the 20s. She posts workout videos and cooking as she is a trained chef.
It's not instructional, she doesn't give advice, just shows what she is doing.
Anyway she has good leggings as they hold her in while she does quite athletic workouts.

these from H&M are fab. I recently had abdo surgery and they have done a great job of holding me together!
They are described as tights but are leggings

I agree with Chatwoo- the M&S Go Move leggings for £25 are brilliant. I think they're just as good as my Sweaty Betty leggings.

Another (HUGE) vote for sweaty betty power leggings. I'm 5'5 and get the 7/8, perfect ankle length. They suck everything in!!!

Hermione - Fabletics power hold. I did the two for £24 and then cancelled the VIP membership/subscription

I've been recommended these on here before. Is phoning the only way to cancel your subscription, or is there a way to do it online (ie without having to talk to someone, who'll probably convince me to keep it)
