Has anyone tried cool sculpting? I saw a commercial and was a bit curious since the only issue I have is a small muffin top :/

Thanks for any reply!

Following... Been curious about this myself!

I've seen the commercial a few times. At first, of course, it makes the procedure seem great. Then the questions come flooding in. As I'm typing this, more questions are coming to mind. I'll limit myself to two for now. Where does that fat go/how does it exit the body? Is the banishment of the fat permanent? That's the thing I don't trust.

If you're talking about a muffin top, are you doing exercises to tighten the underlying muscles? Exercise is a chore for some while it becomes a love of others. In either case, it's a non-cockamamie, non-creepy process, it's free and there are no nasty surprises down the road.

I looked at a few videos on this. It seems to me like it is a frozen mammogram for your belly fat. The fatty part of your body is mashed between two chilled plates. People have a tendency to bruise really bad from it. That's not for me. I would be better off just laying down with some ice packs on me.

@@Miss Mac, and then what? You can't possibly mean that you have no faith in the latest au courant process which will revolutionize the road to beauty and perfection?

Maybe bariatric surgery for chubby toddlers is the solution. At such a tender age, a kid still has the ideal body -- that of an 18ish-year old -- to look forward to.

I would try realself.com. There should be people that have had it on there that have posted their experience.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
