ROMANTASY would love to add more unique, healthy, corset- friendly recipes to our 'how to' waist-training "Corset Magic" book. We're considering preparing a full supplement of recipes and cooking techniques that save calories in healthy foods suitable for those in waist training, plus foods that don't cost much in order to eat nutritiously during these challenging economic times. Care to submit any ideas?
- "The corset, even or especially when tight-laced, has traditionally been and is still vilified as detrimental to health. Grogan shows how false in both theory and practice this assumption is. This is the first work to engage seriously the idea that corsets can actually improve health, especially the new scourge of the "advanced" countries, obesity. Quite apart from all its aesthetic advantages, the corset, as an incentive to eat less and eat better, and exercise more, should be hailed, per Grogan, as safer than all the chemical and surgical "remedies" for obesity. How right and tight she is. It is fun to read, as well." -- David Kunzle, Ph.D., Professor, Department of Art History, University of California, Los Angeles;
Author: Fashion & Fetishm: Corsets, Tight-Lacing, and Other Forms of Body-Sculpture
(Sutton, Los Angeles, April 10, 2005; expanded and published in paperback 2007)- "Perfect to a 'T' in terms of technical advice, Ann Grogan’s chapter on corset construction, how to find and choose a corset maker, and design a functional, comfortable garment provides many words to the wise for first-time corset consumers. Her writing is refreshing and full of personal experiences that show she knows of what she speaks. Choosing a quality waist-training corset will come easy to those who study her words." -- Dawn Marie Forsyth, Fashion Design Coordinator, Fashion Institute of Design and Technology(San Francisco)
(July 15, 2004)Consistent and devoted wearing of a well-fitted custom corset, coupled with moderate nutrition and exercise changes in habit, can, over time, permanently reshape your body. You can lose weight, lose inches, or both, and re-discover a healthy lifestyle while looking great. You can do these things -- contrary to what some website claim -- in three months! Our proof comes from actual, real-life experiences of our many corset clients since 1990, as well as that our Waist-Training Coaching Program students. Our detailed technical manual helps you set up a disciplined program to waist train by yourself! Learn the basics of health-conscious, non-extreme waist training before you set out on this magical mystery tour.
The manual contains specific information about how to find a reputable corset maker and order the perfect "training" corset, how to season or "break in" a new corset, how to comfortably dine while corseted, and how to target exercise and nutrition to reduce the waistline. It also covers how to find and take advantage of a training buddy, and how to maintain your new waistline after formal training has ended.
We believe we have been especially careful to alert you to the effects of doing one thing when it comes to nutrition; everything has consequences! We have also gone to lengths to avoid ambiguous or vague terms and be as fact-based as we can be.
You will be inspired by many real-life examples of success stories from ROMANTASY's Waist-Training Corset Program with graphics and photos. Approximately 300-plus double-spaced pages and numerous lovely corset and illustrative images are included. (You need not order any other monograph since monographs are reprints of chapers from the book.)
Please read Chapter One "Setting the Stage for Corset Magic", (absent images) and view the Table of Contents.We encourage you to consider ordering a suitable, custom waist-training corset from one of our fine team of superbly qualified, tight-lacing, senior corsetieres. We are happy to guide you personally through the design process to obtain the right sizing, fabric, and components of a corset to best serve your training needs.
- "Thank you so much for the wonderful book. I'm just devouring it! After a weight loss of 50 pounds and counting, I've been looking for a method to shed the last 10 and contain the saggy-baggy elephant skin left over from my 198 pound days." Robin (5/12/09)
- "Ann, Wow, I am really enjoying your book!!! It's wonderful, informative, inspiring, and is really getting me motivated (to waist train). Your style of writing is refreshing and often has me smiling. I love your approach and sense of humour. Soon I will be going into a moderate training program following the guidelines you outline in your book. I remember reading about you having to adjust one of your student's program in order to accommodate her life style schedule. It's pretty much the same with me, but... I'm enthusiastic. thanks to you, and of course, to the support of my husband. I hope you don't mind me keeping you posted on my progress? (Ed. note: please do! Before and after pictures also appreciated) Thanks again for your time...and the effort you put into the book, especially for those like me who are unable to take advantage of your coaching program but still can obtain the information and be able apply the knowledge you've so painstakingly prepared, along with your wit and encouragement. As you say.. *kudos*!!!! to you!" Edith (2/2003)
- "Sorry I haven't gotten back to you, but I've gotten a little discouraged. It seems I'm stuck with this this first corset I ordered from XYZ corsetiere. I had saved up to purchase it (but you pointed out it's too big to reach my training goals) and now I'm quite disappointed, since it seems I will have to buy another so soon. I wrote XYZ and told them of the problems I have with their corset. They said it would probably cost just as much to shrink this corset as make a new one! (Ed note: it should never cost as much to shrink a corset an inch or two as to make a new corset; this maker apparently does not want to bother with reasonably-priced followup customer service after closing a sale. Beware because even more corsetieres will simply never even entertain the notion of shrinking a corset at all, while ROMANTASY will). Let me know what I have to do to get things going on a new, properly-sized training corset with you. Will you still be sending me my specialized training schedule to start on January 1? I wish I had followed my intuition and stuck with ordering my corset from you! You are a great motivater and a wonderful business woman. You have forever earned a loyal client. You have reenergized my spirit in this area!!!!!! What do I do next?" CS (12/06)
