dive skin under drysuit?

[SubMariner]

We are going on our very first dive in two weeks! Our instructor said to bring Lycra suits for under our wet suits because they are so hard to get into. I was reading this site though and noticed quite a few recommendations to just wear t-shirts etc. Can anyone tell me what we should take with us just to make the process of getting the suit on? We are not supposed to need and added warmth so that is not a factor.

A leeetle late posting to this thread.... like maybe about 3 years after it started?

Pssst...julie... this thread is about DRY SUITS, not wet suits.

For putting on a wetsuit I find that pantyhose or lycra tights do the job nicely at a fraction of the cost of a lycra skin. And yes, I've seen MEN wear them too!

How'd the dives turn out, BTW?
