32 Year Old Mother of Two - San Jose, CA

I had my flanks, love handles and lower and bottom abdomen completed. I have always had problems with my tummy even before I became a mother so the idea that it would be flat had me sold in seconds! I am hoping that I am happy with the results and that I am not disappointed in spending money and the time.

I have compared and pre and post measurements and the only difference is 1inch on my hips that has gone down. Waist still 32, and hips 37. I have become discouraged from seeing other posts. Dr. took out close to 9lbs. I want to feel like myself again and not ache!

I went back to read my two other postings and boy do I sound like Debbie Downer.... sorry about that... but that is really how I felt at the time. I also took a fall down the stairs and went in the morning of the procedure with a huge bruise from the fall from last night... so, I'm dealing both with that injury as well as the procedure... talk about adding to the situation right? The fall was on the left side and I can definitely feel that pain more... ugh...

Yesterday we went to the bowling alley for a birthday party and I wore a long flowing dress over my garment. It felt sore at times but was glad that I was able to get out of the house for a bit with it on as the day before I had had a meeting at work and was in PAIN the entire day, in fact, I took it off during lunch...

I also noticed a difference this morning when I weighed myself, (I've found that every morning I lose ounces) I am excited to get back in the 130's! I weighed 136 before the holidays and then screwed myself over... and weighed in at 141 the day of the procedure. So much for timing it right, huh? :-)

I like to go without the garment in the morning for a little bit to breathe from the night before and I can certainly notice a difference when I put my sweats and a tank top on. It is a lot flatter.

So, I'm happy to report that I'm feeling better and look forward to the progress each day. Now if I could bend over that would be great.

Oh, husband and I also had sex last night. Talk about killing the romance of it all... he kept asking me if I was okay and if it hurt...

I will take pictures tomorrow and post.
