Don’t get disheartened -I know its hard – I’m the same but as we learnt from @dan it does take a long time with thighs… I just cant wait till they start shrinking every day! The way dr hamlet tells if its swelling or not is to push in and if it is very soft and spongy, there is still swelling . I thought…[Read more]

I tried to massage it out thinking its just hardened tissue or swelling but that just made me feel sick when I touched it, it is spongy if pushed and quite…[Read more]

@Dan – oh no how annoying! No I haven’t had any issues with mine, although not sure how long that is going to last….. 4 weeks wow! Are you happy with your results now or do you think you still need to give it more time to see them get even better? What’s your new…[Read more]

When it arrives you want to have the IR setting, as well as the ultrasonc on high. And just do smal circles towards the body using a gel or ky jelly or any lubricating gel really.. Ah ok that’s good to kne about the legs – I’ve been doing it religiously but wondered how long I should continue for.

@Dan – hun its hard to not be able to see the results, and the uncertainty of what they will match up to your expectations is killing! But we all have to be patient – it is def the hardest bit!

@Lianne – Im glad your surgery went well! Its such a nice feeling being able to shower – finally! Youre being very brave nt taking any peels – Ive been looking at mine and like to see the bruising and how it will hopefully improve 🙂 Im also self-massaging, so kinda need to look at them!

I can’t really see massive results yet, they said my legs are still very swollen and will take a while to calm down.

I was first to be admitted which was lucky. Was out completely and didn’t feel a thing, and definitely didn’t tell Grant any secrets, which is what I’ve heard some girls do! Hehe.

I read your other post and did the nurses say there was a reason for your tummy swelling?
