I have decided to go ahead and get the cool sculpting procedure done. I am getting one large one in my lower abs. I am 44 years old. I am 5'9. I have weighed bw 135-140 my whole life. Within last 5 years I have begun going through perimenopause and I have gained almost 10 pounds- and it seems like it's all in my lower tummy. I am hoping that this helps take away that lower tummy bulge so my clothes fit right again! I know there is no weight loss with the procedure, which is fine. I just want the bulge gone! I've attached my before photos. I will add afters on Friday!

Well today went fine. I was worried about the pain of the machine being put on- really fine. Some initial discomfort but then after a minute it was nothing. I worked on my laptop the whole time. Second I was worried about the massage part- that was really not painful at all. In fact- I hope she did it right bc it kind if felt good- like it was thawing out. I went to work after- no problems all day. Here are my day 1 photos.

Make sure they prescribe you Neurontin & take it at the 1st tinge of pain. Defrosting nerve pain starts in the 4-6 day post time.

I had very minimal pain. I'm on day 6 and still minimal pain. I have swelling and numbness but that's it. It's also tender to the touch but nothing bad. No results yet bc it's too soon. I will keep you posted!

So far so good. No problems. Still somewhat numb, which feels kind of strange, but no discomfort. I think I'm a little swollen but hard to tell. I went zip lining today- so now problems at all being active. I will update again around 6 days out- since that's the time people say they get pain if they are going to get it. Or if anything changes before then- I will post sooner.
