Very happy
WORTH IT$5,500
It's been almost a month and I'm very happy with my results. I lost inches off my stomach and I feel amazing in my clothes. I've gone down one complete size. I could even get away with wearing two sizes smaller in certain clothing lines. My stomach finally matches the rest of my petite body and I feel amazing. Naturally the swelling and having to wear the Garment is frustrating but that has nothing to do with my doctor. I'm so happy I decided to do this.

Back to work - help!
I'm feeling discouraged. With that said I completely understand the importance of the garment. I had a very short four hour day yesterday and I came home swollen and in pain. My belly blew up so much that the darment was digging in to me. My stomach looks crazy with deep lines, bumps and swelling just from 4 hours. I know I have to keep wearing the garment to prevent this but the garment became very painful as the hours went on. I'm wearing it with padding which I never really wanted because it's going to be hot as hell. I'm sweating so much because of all this stuff on. I don't mind sacrificing if it's going to work but I feel like it's almost making me look worse and I really don't know what to do. I was extremely happy with my results when I was home. I can't imagine going anywhere and doing anything like this. I'm feeling really discouraged :(

What type are you wearing? Sit up straight helps and wearing the garment that looks like a bathing suit but braless, and get an abdominal board. I wore just a waist wrap to work and had creases so i stick to the type with shoulder straps, they keep the garmeny straight, i drive alot for work so that was my main concern, sutting and creating lines in my stomach.

I have several different ones including the one they gave me from the hospital with the Deep lines and the velcro. How long did you do that for?

I been wearing the same type for 3 weeks i got one that compresses more than the other so when taking break i wear the less tight one, i tried wearing spanks last week. The shorts with high waist line, but it seemed to create a crease between bra and flank line and not stay up so i figured i wait another 2 weeks.

For me it seems the garments that hold me in the most leave the craziest lines. Lol. Scary when you look at your stomach and see it with lumps and lines. I'm going to try and be patient. :)

My goal outfit
I have never been able to wear a one-piece anything because of my Buddha belly. I would be so very happy to pull off something like this picture. I'm going to continue to work very hard to maintain my weight so I could buy things like this.

Too funny. The belly struggle is real. Lol
I'm so happy I did this. Even if I do look a little crazy for a few weeks. Lol
You will rock your one piece rompa soon! We both will! Woohoo!
