I read recently that Oprah has an entire closet filled with shapewear. I own a few pieces that I rely on heavily to keep everything sucked in, at least between the hours of 9 and 5.
For the past couple of weeks, my back has really been bothering me. I think it's partly due to stress, partly due to lifting Daisy our new puppy, and now, I'm beginning to think, it is in part due to Spanx.
I mean if you think about it, wearing Spanx is no different than foot binding or corsets. Sure there's no whale bone involved in today's version. But you're applying pressure for long periods of time, a practice that could almost certainly lead to back pain. Or front pain. Name your poison.
Of course the alternative is unthinkable. A life without Spanx simply isn't worth living....
So THAT's the problem. I was beginning to wonder about you. Feel better. Don't forget to work on the PR for Spankles, as well as Broken Spirit. I think we've got something here.
