Default Support pantyhose SOS

Being on my feet all day & having bad veins in my legs, support hose feels good. Does anyone out there have a brand or good source name that come in plus sizes? I have been in all the stores around this area and can't find any. I had some that I bought in CT and shrunk into, but they are shot and I need to get some more. Hanes used to make them but have been unable to find them, have seen only sheer. Berkshire used to also but no luck there either. Thanks.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Have you tried online stores?
Googled some, haven't checked into, but some links.
Support Hose, Support Stockings and Support Hosiery from Healthy LegsŪ
Supportsockshop your source for therapeutic support stockings & maternity needs at discount prices!
Walgreens | Shop | Beauty & Spa | Support Stockings

Incidentally, now that you are losing steadily, have you considered that your size has shrunk, so the size you need may be smaller than the size you think you need?

Good luck in your search.

Have you tried Assets? They are made by the same people that make Spanx. They are sold at Target. That is the only place that sells them. They are a little pricey but well worth every penny. I love mine. Here is the site to check them out......

Talking I was just gonna say....

....spanx!!!!
WOW...didn't know about ASSETS...very cool....

Do you think this is the "cheaper version" of Spanx...or different??
I know that Spanx is now at Lane Bryant - in big girl sizes...for those of you who are not under 14 yet! (and I mean YET!!)

I bought my first pair a couple weeks ago...and they are worth every penny...I'll have to check out the sizes on ASSETS!

Thanks Shelley....

I am getting to be in need of a new slimmer so I will have to check out the spanx. I am learning the art of begining your wardrobe with a quality foundation really does make a huge difference in the end result...and who needs breathing anyways...lol.
