Well I have completed week 5 and I will tell you I am ready to throw the garment in the garbage. UGH. I have attached week 5 pictures, but I dread taking the week 6 pictures. I have been traveling this week and have ate terribly with no exercise. I know I will get back on track next week. Although prior to me leaving for my business trip I took a pair of black dress pants that prior I was unable to wear. I put them on to see if I should pack them. I was very pleased with how they fit and felt. It really boosted my confidence. Since I have been traveling this week I don't have alot to write about. It was a hectic week and a test on my will power towards eating out, which I failed. So now I need to go home and dig deep into why I did not succeed during the travel period.

Well I have ended week 4. I will tell you wearing this garment is starting to bother me. There are days that it rides up my butt so much that I try not to bend over but then other days it is fine. So weird. I did buy a new garment that was a "boy short" cut thinking that it wouldn't give me the undeserved "creepers". I bought Leonisa Body short compresion body shaper for $66.00 on the Leonisa website. It also allows me to wear my own bra, where the two that I got from the doctors office is from contour md and does not allow me to wear my own bra (and really doesn't have any support in that area. The Leonisa is very comfortable and actually was tighter, which I understand is good for the tightening of the skin. Although because my thighs are still their original size I got a rash from the boy short cut. So basically I solved one problem but gained another. All in all I do like the Leonisa and will wear it but just for shorter periods of time.
I have posted the week 4 pictures. I know one comment was made the possibility of my partial dissatisfaction was the placement of my underwear on my belly. So I took an extra shot with the underwear below my belly button and across my belly button, which is where the underwear naturally sits. I will say that in the pre procedure picture where my underwear is below my belly button that the underwear would be forced to ROLL down due to the size of my belly. I look at that picture and laugh and remember having to constantly adjust my underwear because it ROLLED.
I have come to realize that my slight dissatisaction is with my hips. I have always been a hippy (not the one from the 60's...lol) kind of person. And the pictures do show a redution in that area. I truely was expecting a bigger reduction of fat and to be more proportionate to my back side. I still have to wear my pants with a big gap in the back and if I try to puch them down on my hips they just ride back up to sit on my hips and reside around my waist. Which is what was happening before my procedure. I look at the week 1 side pic and the week 4 side pic and I think my hips look smaller at week 1. Anyone else think that?
My stomache area seems a little lopsided now. It isn't something that you can tell in these pictures. Hopefully with more time and wearing of these darn garments it will improve.
I have gone back to the gym, just doing the treadmill at this point per the doctor. But if feels good to be back at the gym no matter what I am doing.

I am now heading into week 4 and as I look back at each picture I think that week 1 is when I looked my best (thinnest). Is it my imagination? I am not sure I am totally satisfied with the hip area. I guess I will have to mention it at my 6 week follow up, although I am not sure what can be done. I am getting a little frustrated and discouraged.
