The 7 Stages of Putting on Spanx

Before you squeeze yourself into the torture device, it’s important to know these seven stages.

Published

on

#1 – SHOCK & DENIAL

Am I really going to put myself through this modern-day torture device? I don’t need to succumb to societal pressure to look thinner, do I?

#2 – PAIN & GUILT

Oh god, I can’t get it over my shoulders. Now I can’t get it off. It’s stuck. I knew I shouldn’t have done this. Dear god, it’s SQUEEZING THE LIFE OUT OF ME.

#3 – ANGER & BARGAINING

I’ll be damned if I get stuck here in a Nordstrom’s dressing room for the rest of my life! That’s it — I’m gonna show this SPANX Higher Power who REALLY has the power in this relationship. If I just tug here, pull there, and do the downward dog over there, maybe I can roll it off…

#4 – DEPRESSION, REFLECTION, LONELINESS

OMG, I really am going to die alone in a Nordstrom’s dressing room. Ironic thing is, by the time they find the remains of my body, I won’t even need the Spanx anymore.

#5 – THE UPWARD TURN

Wait! I think I’ve got it.

#6 – RECONSTRUCTION & WORKING THROUGH

Just need to suck in my gut a little more. Yes! Now keep rolling it down over my muffin top…

#7 – ACCEPTANCE & HOPE

IT’S. ON. I may not be able to ever get it off, but at least I’m going to ROCK my high school reunion, baby!

2. “Wow. Your kids have given you a LOT of grey hairs, huh?”

3. “I’ve seen straw with more moisture than your hair.”

4. “SURPRISE! I gave you the Donald Trump ‘do!”

5. “These highlights will detract from the dark circles under your eyes.”

6. “Is this YOUR chunk of burning hair in the curling iron?”

7. “I have to warn you — I like to talk A LOT…”

8. “Before I turn you around to look in the mirror, you may want to take a deep breath.”

9. “This is my first day out of the training academy!”

10. “Oops.”
