I go to the gym 3 times a week. I'm 5'4 and currently 160lbs after losing 30lbs since October last year. The weight has come off slowly and evenly everywhere else except my back. I put on all my weight in the last 3 years just because of laziness and a bad diet. Before that I was always 125lbs. Even at 125 I STILL had back fat. I've never worn a bikini because I've been conscious of it right through my teen years and 20's, I don't want to spend my 30's in the same boat. I know I can lose on my stomach as I keep losing weight because my stomach was always flat before my weight gain, but I know I won't lose on my back so that's why I'm doing this. I just really hope it works and I'm not in the minority of people that get no results. I'm just anxious and excited. I will post photos as I progress. I plan on combining this with my current excercise regime, so I will be exercising after the procedure. My results may be affected slightly by excercise, but like I said, I've always had back fat even in my skinny days (since puberty). So I will take this as a testament on whether coolsculpting works or not. I can't afford liposuction, this is my maximum budget so it's just one shot for me.

New pictures and bodyfat BEFORE procedure
I have less than 24 hours to go to get my back fat coolsculpted, I cannot wait! I've gone to the gym everyday since my last post and in that time (as predicted) I've lost weight on my stomach, but my back remains with the prominent fat bulge (updated photo attached).
I want to document my body measurements now, I'll do it tomorrow evening again after the procedure, and again as I start seeing a difference:
I am currently 37% body fat, I don't know if I'll get an immediate change tomorrow but I should definitely see a different reading in the next few days.

Wow! So excited for you to do the coolsculpting - but what are you doing to get such impressive results in the gym??

Thanks, notgen! I do weightlifting for about 30 minutes with reps, then 30-45 minutes of cardio. Someone told me that you get better results with weightlifting and I see it too. I only used to just do the cardio before that. Unfortunately, I've been on vacation so I've only done cardio for the last week and a half, but I cannot wait to get back to weights :-)

Day of treatment
D Day
I had the procedure done just two hours ago. It felt like what i would epoxy a suction to feel like, at first is uncomfortable but then after a few minutes you don't even notice it. I had it done at Idea Image by a nurse. I had lots of pillows and a blanket on my bed to make me comfortable, and I had my phone to listen to music so the hour went by very quickly. The only pain was when she massaged the area for 2 minutes after the procedure. I would place the pain of the massage at 6/10 and the pain of the suction at 1/10.
Results will tell, let's wait and see...
