I know this is stupid but ones like this:  http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sweet-Nothings-Smoothing-Shapewear-Firm-Control-Unitard-Style-82556/14560110#Specifications

Do you have to pull the whole thing down when you go to the bathroom?  Those of you who've worn this type, is it a total pain in the ass? 

I need something to control the belly giggle.  My pants keep the lower belly controlled but the upper belly is wiggly and giggly all over the place.  I look like a waterbed ... I also have thunder thighs that wiggle and giggle.  I'm not sure how effective shapewear is on thighs.  Any thoughts??

Thanks!!

 i just posted something about this yest. My thight wiggle like theres no tomrrow and i HATE it. Today i just happend to fine a pair of assets shapewear leg wear at my consignment shop and LOVE IT! I think its almost a size to small but they were FREE so damn it i got em and sausaged myself into them tonight under a pari of jeans and theres a BIG difference! Still wiggles some but NOTHING like before! I say go for it. Now im not sure what im gonna do insummer when its 90 degrees outside because i sure wont want to wear something like that under my clothes, but for right now it works!

 Oh also, i have somethign similar to the link yougave altho it just comes to right under the girls. I like it under a dress and it might work under shorts, BUT i do not like it under pants because i can TOTALLY tell where it ends mid thigh, you can tell thru my jeans. There is like an indentation you can see thru the pants....and I dont dont like that. What I got today goes all the way to my ankle, so no lines anywhere.

If you wear underwear underneath, then yes you will need to pull down (take off shirt too if you have the full body one on to remove the straps).  If you go commando, they do have the crotch opening you can pee through - haven't personally tried that yet!  They are comfortable after you've put them on a few times and they do hold you in great and they are a good bargain.

THANK YOU!!  This is what I needed to know. 

I drink alot like we're all supposed to so I pee alot.  I just don't want to have to completely undress just to pee, kwim?  With as many layers as I'm wearing now, it would be a real pain in my ass.

I was just thinking about getting one of these today! I have been using high-waisted shaper shorts, which I am happy with, but sometimes the back rolls down and I like the idea of these being held up on the shoulder.

I havent tried the full bodied shapewear but I do love the sweet nothings upper-wear that snaps up the front and goes underneath the girls.  I use it to control my back fat.  I lost a lot of weight a few years ago and had a tummy tuck and even though I gained most of it back, my tummy tuck has held up very well.  My thighs are also jiggly but I figure I can keep them covered, but I have a roll of back fat that drives me absolutely crazy.  The sweet nothing really helps, but I its becoming too big and I need to find another.  If anybody knows of another back fat controller, please let me know!

A lot of shapewear has the snap crotch so you can to go the bathroom with it. That can be a plus. I rarely wear shapewear unless I am dressing up and going out, and trying to get shapewear down plus pantyhose or whatever is a pain.

Go here:

Their swimsuits are all $10 right now, too..and their shapewear is the best I've found.

I only use something for my thighs with a dress/skirt.  Otherwise I use the sweetnothings cami that has a different material over your breasts so it doesn't flatten everything, but it controls the belly giggle well and comes down to the top of my thighs but isn't a pain to pee in!
