Has anybody tried this? I'm thinking of trying it, but I have no idea if it works, AND how much it costs. I lost over 40 pounds a couple of years ago, but I simply can't get rid of my belly and love handles. I'm actually below my target weight, but I still have excess around my middle. Thoughts?

God has a crazy sense of humor is my response to myself and those who have bodies that don't match up with our desired specs. I just thank Him I do not have cankles. But I don't like my calves and I fear I will always have an abdominal pooch, because my very thin mom did.


Congrats on losing 40 lbs., that is hard work.

Thanks! I did it with cutting out seconds and the biggest difference I think was I started biking.
It's funny you mention cankles, ALL my sisters-in-law have them, and admire my skinny legs. I used to have huge calves, but still no cankles. I lost the big calves when I had to stop running due to my knees.
One drawback to the big weight loss is the wrinkly skin. But, still better than having all that skin filled out with fat!

I've not tried it, but I've heard it's really expensive and takes a lot of treatments to see any results.


Look into cold thermogenesis as another option, IMO.

Haha - you are so funny! I too give thanks I do not have cankles. I have nice calves, small ankles and a decent set of knockers, but yeah, no matter how thin I have been in my life I got the belly pooch. And I work out a lot! I always say God spent too much time on my boobs and then got tired and forgot my butt.....

My friend did it back in August (love handles). Paid a lot of money. They told her to wait 3-4 month. After 4 month there was zero improvement. Love handles stayed the same. They tried to argue she gained weight (What?). They told her she needs more cool sculpting procedures (more money). I think she is still trying to get her money back. Total bs.

Thanks for sharing! I see those commercials and let my mind dream that dream. I needed a wake up call!
