It's been 2 weeks and 1 day since I was sleeved. Is it to soon to wear my spanx????

I don't know the answer but it is a really good question.  I rarely go without my Spanx so I would love to see the responses.  I am scheduled for surgery on 7/29 and had not even considered that I may not be able to wear my spanx for awhile.

Thanks for asking the question and best wishes on your WL journey.

I say try it on -  I would think it might irritate your incision sites, but if not, go for it!

i went back to work at 2 weeks and found that the extra support helped out. I felt I was "pushing" out on my incision when sitting and loved the counterbalance spanx offered.
