i'm 5'6 and weighted around 136 before and now is 132. I've been wearing my compression garment 24/7, and i'm not sure if i'm still swollen or this is my final result.Still feel hardness in my stomach, and when i wear my CG for a long time my waist is 24,5 in (without the CG), but after i stop wearing it for several hours my waist is like 26,5 in.
