So I'm 27 years old and have to beautiful children. After my son was born (1st pregnancy) I bounced back to my normal weight and size, but after my daughter (2nd) pregnancy) I was about 20 pounds overweight and was tough to get rid of it. Over the years I was able to loose the weight and just up until the last year I gained the whole 20 back plus 10 so I'm currently about 30 pounds over weight and exercise and diet don't seem to help so I decided to try coolsculpting to help with the buldging. I had my procedure done on August 4th, 2015 so today is officially day 7 they used 4 of the small applicators for each region of my stomach (2 for the top flanks and 2 for the bottom buldge ) so I spent a total of 4 hours getting the procedure done since they can only do one applicator at a time. The procedure itself wasn't horrible I watched some tv and read a book, but it's crazy how no one really speaks about the after pain! They claim no down time and only 7% actually get pain, but I call BS. After my procedure I felt extremely uncomfortable, but tolerable by day 2-7 I've been in excruciating pain. I tried a heating pad and that was worst! (Try and ice pack) but I have read by day 11 the pain will go away so I'm praying that it does. So far I'm very swollen and haven't seen any changes but it's only been a week and they advised me I would see results on week 3 so I'll definitely will be updating you guys then!

Please do, I got a consultation and they wanted to charge me $4500 and that was with the 25% off for a one time sculpting. I felt that was a little too much.

Well coolsculpting has a universal prices of $750 per applicator, but I went to ideal image and they also had a 25% off so I really paid about $600 per applicator.The original cost they gave me was $4800 but that was including a full 2nd treatment and I didn't do that because I didn't want to commit to doing a second treatment if I wasn't happy with the first one...I'll deffinately keep posting my progress and hope it helps you in your journey :)

Okay so I can officially say I'm pain free yay!!!!! I'm still a bit tender to the touch on my stomach but nothing that's not tolerable....and I've noticed the swelling has also gone down I mean I'm not any slimmer and I still have the buldge, but after the coolsculpting I was somewhat swollen and now that has gone away I feel more comfortable. I'm not really expecting results yet anyways since it take at least 3 weeks to see a difference, but like I said the swelling has gone away so I'm at least happy about that!

Today is day 14 (2weeks) and I feel great! My stomach still feels a bit numb to the touch, but absolutely no pain! Now as far as results nothing yet but it's still very early and I'm very optimistic that I will see some results soon. I will try and post some pics from all angles on my week 3 update.

I had the mine done 8/12 at Ideal Image in North Haven and the only thing I have found very painful to the point I wanted to walk out was the 2 minute massages. 10 minutes later the pain was gone. Days 6 & 7 I was uncomfortable as the nerves we waking up. But that is pretty much gone today on day 8. I had 2 applicators on my lower ab and 2 and the back bra line. I swear at 1 week everyone I show a comparison picture of see a reduction to my lower ab on the sides. Wish I knew how to post a pic here to show you. I'm excited about what the next months bring.

I'm posting my 2 week pics now. It's 2 weeks today. And I feel like I see a good I change. I watch what I eat but definately don't diet. I am doing the Jillian Michaels Beginner Shred video almost everyday. It's only 20 minute workouts but they are effective. Check out my pics on my profile and let me know what you see.
