My progess with Zaggora Hot Pants: week 1 measurements

I actually wanted to get this posted yesterday night but I had no one around to man the camera. My hubby was able to do it today so here it goes.  It's been 1 wk and 1 day of my 2 wk trial with my Hot Pants.

Zaggora Hot Pants are supposed to help reduce cellulite and, with only 3 - 30 minutes workouts a week over two weeks they are supposed to help you lose 2 jean sizes.  You can look back at my post I did the day I received my Hot Pants (Click HERE to see that post)  it has my initial measurement proof pictures.  I made sure I took the pic with the same tap measure, the same thigh, everything.  Here are my week 1 (and a day) results:

You can see in the pic that I lost a little over an inch in my belly already.  Compare to initial post, where I was at 34 and 1/4".  I'm not not quite even to the 33" mark.

Then there's my bum.  I'm at 33 and 1/2" so I lost a half inch around my bum (initial measurement was 40")

This one is a bit harder to see but I am at just a little less than 23" around my right thigh.  Initial measurement was 24".

Wanna know the crazy part though?  I actually gained a pound.  That absolutely drives me nuts.  It's been suggested it's muscle. I hope that's so.  I already noticed a difference in the way my work scrubs fit.  They are definitely roomier in the thighs.


I really haven't put in any hard core workouts.  I took a walk with my kids (as they rode their bikes and I pushed my toddler in the stroller).  We purposely took on some steep hills just to make it more challenging.  I timed it to make sure we were out for at least 30 minutes.  That was day 1.

Day 2 I took a walk with the kids again and I did 50 crunches.  I has also wore them to work under my scrubs

Day 3 I took a break from wearing them and really was just a lazy slug. Though I did take the time to try hand washing them and hang them to dry.

Day 4 I wore them miniature golfing with the fam.  I also indulged in some frozen custard.

Day 5  I did 15 minutes of power walking on the treadmill and 100 crunches and some butt squeezes.

Day 6 I took a break from wearing them again and again a lazy slug

Day 7 I wore them under my scrubs to work again and made sure to take the stairs instead of the elevators when possible (hey I'll do 2 or 3 flights but 8 uh not ready for that)

Day 8 (today)  I only put them on for the measurements.

So really it was no grueling time in the gym and I still lost some inches.  I even tried on my bikini to check the work in progress.  Still have a little to trim away at the belly but so far, I'm happy.

Hot Pants by Zaggora size suggestion: What sizes should I get?

I have been visiting Hot Pants Facebook page frequently since I started my trial on Wed. July 13. One question I've seen come up a few times is if your on the fence about what size to buy, here's my suggestion:

The size conversion chart on www.gethotpants.com site has it broke into UK, US, and EU sizes. I'm going to go with US sizes here since that is what I'm familiar with.

As I mentioned in my initial Hot Pants test post I can wear anything from a 6-10 depending on the brand and style of the clothes though a 6 is a rarity for me. I ordered a small because the size conversion chart said a small fit between 6-10. When I got them in the mail, I tried them on immediately.  I had to pull each side of the zipper together in order to zipper that pants.  They were pretty snug.  I think if I would have been a solid size 10 or if my size was mostly due to my hip bones (which won't give of course) I don't know that I would have got them on.   My sister got the Large.  She would have been right in the middle with the sizing between 14-18 but she said she's tried everything to zipper them up and she's not able to. 

The pants are supposed to fit snug but my suggestion, if you're on the highest end of a size, you may want to order the next size up.  I've seen some say that they were able to get them on easier if they didn't unzipper them and just pulled them up.  They are a bit stretchy so that may work for some. 


I'm going to do a progress update post on Wednesday.  That will be exactly a week of wear.  If you want to see if they really work, you're going to want to read Wednesdays post.  I will be documenting my progress for 2 weeks so check back, if you're considering getting your own Hot Pants.  If you already know you want a pair, use this coupon code to save yourself 10%: ANGIEBEE
