Trying the Waist Training Challenge

Waist training is definitely one of the latest slimming fads today and with celebrities, like Kim and Khloe Kardashian promoting it, you'd bet people all over the globe will give it a try. And yes, that includes me.

9-Boned Jacquard Waist Training Corset from icahonline.com

I recently purchased a nude, 9-boned Jacquard waist training corset from the online shop, icahonline.com. I was inspired by the feedback on their Instagram account, especially by IG user mhoyperez who became my instant fitspiration.



I am truly thankful for Mhoy because she helped be decide to give the waist training corset a try. For my first day, I have decided to wear it for three hours on the third hook. It was a little bit uncomfortable especially after / while eating. I asked Mhoy about it and she suggested that I wear the corset for two hours before eating to avoid difficulty in breathing.

So tomorrow, that will be my goal - two hours before eating.

By the way, if you are also interested or curious about waist training, I suggest that you visit this site first. It helped me prepare myself today hence the reason why I wore it for three hours muna.

In the "7 Day Waist Training Beginners Guide & Checklist," a beginner is encouraged to do a trial run first to see if waist training is for her. So, I will try this for a week first then we'll see from there.

If you are wondering what size to get, icahonlineshop has a size chart to assist you. I'll be honest; after giving birth to Z, my tummy ballooned to a size 40" waistline (yes, I am embarrassed to admit it). The key to checking if you have the right size is when the corset does not bulge in front and does not roll up.

For the type of corset, Mhoy advised me to try something that has a spandex feel hence my choice of the Jacquard waist training corset. According to her, it's more comfortable for beginners like me.

So let's see where this will take me. I'll try to take a photo or update my blog about my progress. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
