“I participated in a campaign on behalf of Dad Central Consulting for Depend. I received products samples and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.”

Here’s another one of those taboo conversations.
Many people have had that moment after they sneeze or just can’t hold it. The panic sets in…. wondering….. can anyone see anything? You may have a feeling of being ashamed or just bummed because you are getting older.
I’m here to tell you. You are not alone. Millions of people suffer from incontinence. No need to be embarrassed or ashamed. Depend’s new Fit-Flex is here to help.
Many people expressed concerns to the Depend brand about being bulky and not being able to live life to the fullest. Depend revamped their design and with Depend Fit Flex there’s no need to slow down your active life. Depend Fit Flex is so discreet you are able to wear your regular favorite attire and it goes unnoticed. Making you feel more confident and able to take back your active life style!
On the Depend site there are 3 inspiring stories. My favorite is Paul’s, he is living with incontinence. When Paul first experienced bladder issues he became embarrassed. Being unable to cope with this condition, Paul’s marriage fell apart. Then he began gaining weight in his 40’s and on his 50th Birthday he made a decision. He was going to turn his life around. He began running and his life changed after marrying his 2nd wife. She helped him cope with his incontinence and get on with his life. Paul now uses Depend Fit Flex regularly and has lost his weight gain. This is such an inspirational story in many ways.
Get on with your life! Enjoy running, bike riding, hiking, and vacations!
Mar Jennings is known as a top lifestyles expert. Here are a few active lifestyle tips from him.
* “Staying active is easier when you love what you do, be it hiking, horseback riding, tennis, or taking a brisk walk. Find what calls to you and get moving!”
* “Have a clear vision of what you want “you” and your life to look like in six or 12 months. Start small and think big; the results over time will be impressive.”
Don’t stop living because of bladder issues. Depend offers underwear, briefs, guards, and shields for men and women. Click here to request a free sample.
It’s really nice that things have been created to help people out of embarrassing situations. I am fortunate that I don’t need Depends at this time – unless I should dare jump on a trampoline.
I love that there are options like this for people who want to get on with life and not let a small problem hold them back.
My husband and I were just joking about Depends for men and then we saw someone walking by with a box of it in his cart. Hey, whatever you need to do to carry on with activities you enjoy people should do!
Just because you have problems with going to the bathroom doesn’t mean you can’t live an active lifestyle.
I had some problems like that after having my first daughter, but it eventually went away. The OB told me that I’ll almost definitely have problems again later in life though. I’m glad these products are available for people who need them.
I think it is nice for products like this to be on the market. We all grow older and who knows if we will need them later. So instead of making fun, lol be thankful cause you might need them!!!
This is a fact of life problem & I appreciate the feedback. We never know when any of us may need a product like this.
That’s sad that Paul’s marriage fell apart because of this, because it can happen to the best of us. I’m happy to hear that he found someone who can understand his issue much better and that he doesn’t let it hinder him from living a happy, active life.
I love to see that there are products are there that are discreet and can help people not feel bad about themselves. People don’t realize that many people suffer from incontinence when you get older. It’s just one of those parts about getting older.
I imagine more people than will admit really need products like this.
It’s good that there are these types of products available — I am glad they are discreet for those who need them.
