Ta Ta Tamer review

Here's a review I just posted on the lululemon site regarding their awesome but unfortunately named bra, the Ta Ta Tamer:

I bought the Ta Ta Tamer several months ago and have totally loved it -- mostly because it's the first sports bra I've ever had that controls bounce AND looks great under a tank top. But yesterday I put it to an entirely different kind of test and it exceeded my highest expectations. On Tuesday of this week, I had a biopsy on my breast. I'd never had one before, and wasn't prepared for how sore I'd be afterward. Per the instructions I received at the breast clinic, I didn't go out running for 24 hours after the procedure. And I wouldn't have wanted to anyway -- I was too sore to think about it. On Wednesday, I got the very happy news that my lump is benign. The next day was absolutely beautiful day -- and what better way to celebrate my result than with a run? I wasn't sure how it would go because I was still pretty sore. I strapped myself into the Ta Ta Tamer, hit the road -- and felt absolutely no pain at all, despite the fact that I was totally pounding the pavement. Thanks to the Ta Ta Tamer, I set a new PR for a 3-mile run while healing from a breast biopsy!

Love that bra, and love my good fortune.
