Stretch Marks

So yesterday was my 3rd session of laser treatment to get rid of my stretch marks. I have been getting this treatment done since October at Cork Laser Care Clinic. I feel as though the treatment is not working as best as I had imagined. There is a lot more smoothness to the areas with stretch marks but the over all appearance has only slightly improved. I was told by the lovely girl that does the treatment that she has noticed a huge improvement so it could just be myself being judgemental towards my own body as I want results yesterday!

The treatment was adjusted to a higher frequency - I suppose you could call it - which means that the sensation had been a bit more intense yesterday but it is never painful and still lasts a very short time.As the normal recommendation of sessions can go as far as 6 and I have only received 3 I will wait patiently for the next few weeks leading up to my next appointment to see if there are any changes to the areas treated today.

If any of you out there are receiving or have received this treatment it would be great to get your feed back.
P.S my next appointment is 12th March so I will keep you posted.


Kind Regards,
Naoimh

Weigh Day!!




I went for my weigh in this morning and I am happy to say that I have lost 1 lb this week which is a great result. I attended my 2 Zumba classes in which my friend also joined and really liked it. It's great when you have somebody to enjoy having fun working out with. It doesn't seem like such a task then - more like 2 mothers getting a break and exercising at the same time.

 On the days I didn't have class I still did my Zumba on the PlayStation which I feel is really helping me. Especially on the nights that are too cold or it's raining and I can't get out for a walk. This leaves me with no excuse not to work out!
