Your waist trainer should fit tight enough to pull your waist in on the 3rd hook closure.
It should have enough structure to not roll over the waist (this is a sign the waist shaper is too small).
-Your waist trainer should not interfere with your breathing and you should not experience any pain.
-The garment is going to feel uncomfortable until you get used to it. This is why you gradually build up to wearing the trainer for longer periods of time.
-The shaper should close properly with no bulging.
-Always break in your waist trainer for a more comfortable fit.
-Measure your natural waist - often the smallest part of your waist. This is the waist measurement you need to deduct to get the right size for your needs and waist training goals.
-If you are a plus sized woman, with a natural waist of 38'' or more, choose a waist trainer size that's anywhere from seven to 10 inches smaller, because your body will have more weight to safely redistribute as your waist shrinks.
