Help! Horror with gym leggings!

I have decided to increase my fitness and went to the Nike store to buy some gym wear.

How is it that I tried on leggings and I could see every single bit of cellulite and fat on the back of my thighs! It was mortifying to think I’ve let myself get to this stage!

Can anyone recommend quality leggings for the gym? To have good wicking but not show all the crap that I’m trying to fix?!

Sweaty Betty Power Leggings. Lots of patterns too so very camouflaging if that's what you're after. Up to 50% off in the sales, but you've just missed them. They also have a resale ebay store.

I wear Lands' End Starfish slim leg jersey trousers to the gym. They last forever, don't roll or slip and aren't at all see through. My oldest pair are about 15 years old and the stitching on the waistband has started to go, apart from that they've all lasted really well (about 5 pairs). www.landsend.co.uk/Womens_Starfish_Slim_Leg_Stretch_Jersey_Trousers_/pp/P_29712.html?dwvar_P__29712_sizeVariation=59&dwvar_P__29712_color=BLA

M&S Good Move

Agreed. Lumps and bumps are smoothed, and they're good at holding everything still - minimal jiggle.
