So it's been a while since I updated my post. After 2 months, I went for my follow up. I saw absolutely no difference but the technicians swore then could. Unfortunately my before pictures were taken differently than my 2nd pictures.
But they also agreed that I needed a 2nd treatment and offered to give me double treatment on my upper belly. Instead of just the small one on both sides, they crisscrossed the larger paddle (and only charged me for the small ones). I really hoping to see some results.
And she made a comment that she was starting to see some results in the lower ones (this is 10+ weeks from original treatment).
Another thing I noticed, I gained 7 or 8 lbs after my first treatment and haven't been able to lose it. This time I immediately started working out, took my dog for a walk that night (I worked out earlier) and ran/walked plus strength training the next day.
No bruising, no real pain - a few twinges every once in a while but I have been staying ahead of the pain - sleeping on ice pack, taking pain medicine, etc.

ABSOLUTELY NO CHANGE!
jamiam923April 30, 2016
Absolutely no change after almost 6 weeks. I am totally frustrated. My clothes don't fit better, my weight hasn't changed, my measurements are the same. I work out at least 5 times a week doing interval training or run/walk treadmill work out. Yes, I have a job that requires me to sit all day but I try to get up every hour to walk.
I'm suppose to go back for follow-up next week but due to a hit and run accident, I won't have transportation so I will have to push it back to the following week.
I was told I would need two procedures but I'm not sure if I am willing to go through it again. At least, not in the near future.
I actually have another review from day 1 and updated every few days.

RESULTS OR WISHFUL THINKING??
jamiam923April 19, 2016
I think I'm seeing results. I noticed this morning the pants I was wearing seemed to fit a little looser in the tummy area. I also noticed in my workout pants - instead of having to hike up my pants they stayed plus my stomach just looked smaller. Yea!!!
