"Cold Sculpting" My Way to 6-Pack Abs?!?
I put a little teaser on the dashboard today to see if people were more interested in my race report from Oceanside or the review of my Cold Sculpting from Thursday night before the Saturday race. It seemed people were interested in both, so I am here to accommodate. I actually wrote it as two blog posts on my silly little site because it made it easier for me to use and work with both topics. I hope to get the Race Report up tomorrow.
In the time, you can find my adventures in body modification here.
A side note, I was not sure where to place this in the forums. I thought medical and then I thought nutrition, but its too weird. So the Club House seemed the best. At the end of the day, for me, it was about body composition. A topic often discussed around here so perhaps a few will find it interesting reading.
Let me know your thoughts!

Be thankful you only had to read about it. I got the play-by-play in the front yard, complete with lifted shirt, description of robot sucking at your fat and freezing it...
@ Robert, ya got your face back
I formally and fully concede Dino. You really do love gadgets and crazy tech much more than I do.
Also I'm going to need you to adopt me.
I really don't deal well with suspense, btw. I think you should check back in with pics at least every two weeks. Proper documentation of progress and all... ;-)
I hear WADA is studying a possible ban on this procedure
Huh, interesting...
Must be those space boots squeezing all the fat upwards.

"No serious long-lasting side effects were encountered during follow-up time of 6 months.[7] Scarring, ulcerations, or changes in blood lipids or liver functions have not been reported."
However, this is apparently a relatively new technique so there is not a wealth of empirical data on the subject.
@ Ray - I am fearless! I saw in the materials they provided that yes, the fat does go elsewhere. Once those cells are gone, deposits then go to fill other fat cells. Yes, that fat brick was terrible!
In all seriousness, the procedure was no big deal. I had it done last March and I would say the change is very subtle. It's non-surgical and fairly well priced (mine was FREE), but I think good for the subtle result that I got. I would do it again.
My next move is radio sonic body sculpting. My dad just acquired that machine. I am told it is more invasive and hurts for a day or two, but I am game! The results are also supposed to be more pronounced. I just got find the time before the season gets going. My old man said he could do it any night after 7:00 PM. lol....
Or for his next bike...
