it was a waste of money

It's been four months now and I can say that I see little to no difference. I even lost a few pounds, but I still have the same stomach pooch. I had such high hopes. :-(

Its also been over 4 months since I had cool sculpting, just like you ..NO RESULT. But I only had one treatment with small sucyion on my lower abdomen. I only paid $450.00. I had $200.00 discount.

A large applicator sucks in a stick of butter, as CololSculpting calls it, which is 118 ml and a total of 23% of the fat treated goes away - This equals 1/4 stick of butter. A small applicator is less than half of that size so that's an 1/8th of a stick of butter. That's about 12 ml of fat. Just as a reference there are 354 ml in a 12 oz Can of Coke. ....Sorry but it seems to make sense. That is an imperceptible amount of fat loss.

No pain yesterday or today. I hope I'm in the clear. The numbness is subsiding.

It's been several months now. Have the results been good?

Sorry for the delay. I have been out of town for the past month and a half. I see no results at all. It was a total waste of my money.

Day 4

down by the bay
Yesterday and this morning I still had to hold my stomach with both hands when I did my 5 minute morning routine. Other than that things are going well. I am expecting pain either today or tomorrow, but so far so good. There is not much swelling at all, if any. My stomach still feels numb.

It's been a week and a day now. I'm still a bit numb. How strange to pay money and go through this and have to wait so long to see any results! At least there was no pain as I read some people have had.
