Exercise clothes

I haven't been a good exerciser on this journey, but now that I'm close to goal I know I need to get my butt moving.  I can't go to a gym so I'm working out at home.  But, I've found that some of the exercises I'm doing make my belly flop (is it fat? is it skin? a combination? I don't know).  And it is uncomfortable, embarrassing (with this problem I wouldn't go to a gym even if I could).  I'm thinking, short of plastic surgery, which isn't a possibility now, I'm guessing I need different workout clothes.  Does anyone have a solution or a suggestion?  Has anyone else had this problem?

Oh yes. I use a compression top from Yummie Tummie under my regular workout shirt, and compression pants from Nike over my regular tights. I find this keeps everything in place and comfy, even for high impact workouts. There are other brands as well of course! Just Google something like "compression clothing women" or "compression shirt women" and you'll see. I find EBay is a good place to get discount stuff btw.

Compression tanks underneath t-shirts work wonders.

I got some pants from a company called The Girls at Ross for cheap a couple years ago that I love. They have a strong built in tummy panel that really helps keep things a little less floppy.
