41year old mother of 3. Lost approx 88 pounds and my skin was just hanging and I was embarrassed to wear fitted clothing.

I am only 4 days out. I am very sore but I expected that and the swelling. I had the q pain pump which I totally recommend.

The best thing I did was rent a walker for a few weeks. My back hurts very little. Unlike my abdomen. Again I am 4 days out. But I wish my binder was tighter. When I get up or sit down I place a hand on my stomach for support. I feel very swollen but do feel better after finally having a bm today. I do think the garment given to me is correct size and a good one, I just feel like my muscles r going to come out.

I have been very happy with my tt. I feel so comfortable in my clothes. I am down to a size 12. Running is so nice to not have to hold my pants up, as before tt I use to hold dog leash with 1 hand and other would pull up my pants. Now running is a breeze with just holding the dog leash.
Today I got coolsculpting done on my love handles or hips. It did not hurt, can't wait to see if this works. I did not have any lipo done with the tt. Not that I had not wanted to. I will try to update if it begins hurting from the coolsculpting. But even tonight 7 hrs later I have no pain, butI do have 2 huge hickeys on both my hips/love handles.

Grosso, that is crazy that u got urs done here. I did almost go to Bozeman, but I believe n fait and that everything happens for a reason and everything fell n place to get it done here. We so should get a coffee sometime.

That is so funny. Dr. Muskett did mine. They work together. That is so awesome. Such a small world:). When did you have your done. I'm 4 weeks today. We totally should get together some time.
