You all know that I ordered my Cool Shapes shorts last week and they came in the mail today! My investment was $173 but shipping was free! The package came with 6 gel packs (only 4 are included in the $150 offer) and a mesh case to help them freeze correctly while in the freezer, 1 pair of compression shorts with 8 pockets, and a carrying/storing case for the shorts.
I think they're pretty neat. You place the gel packs in the mesh case and place them in the freezer for 2 hours before putting on your shorts and placing the gel packs in the appropriate pockets.
I had to wear a sweatshirt while wearing them because it was kind of cold (I wasn't about to make my husband and kids suffer in the 90 degree weather with no air conditioning--but if you're home alone, you could probably save on your electric bill!). However, it really wasn't uncomfortable (especially since you only wear them for 30 minutes), it's just like wearing compression shorts when you work out except there's no slimy sweat dripping down them! Now, there's no immediate results of course, but I took my measurements, so we'll see where I am in a week or two.

Can you really freeze away fat?
Edited Wednesday, July 17, 2014, at 5:30 p.m.
All this new research has come up in the last few years that freezing fat can be an invasive (non-surgical) way to minimize those "problem areas, and until recently, it could only be done by professionals, but now it can be done at home with compression shorts and ice packs!?
"Scientists around the world have discovered that fat cells are highly sensitive to cold. Brown fat cells, the kind we want, react to cold by becoming more active and burning more calories. White fat cells, the stubborn fat we want less of, react to cold by withering and dying." according to the FreezeAwayFat website. So that means the fat is PERMANENTLY gone!? Sounds good to me!
This product is meant for people, like me, who have reached their ideal weight and are pretty close to their ideal shape, they just have a few stubborn problem areas. I eat right, I exercise hard, but I still have belly fat on my lower abdominal area that I have spent my whole life trying to get rid of...my hips will shrink by my belly won't budge! (It'll just bulge...blah!) I'm a sucker to try anything with a money-back guarantee so I ordered my pair with an extra set of gel packs (for a total of 6).
There are 8 pockets to place the freezer packs in that focus on a woman's main problem areas (I'll focus on stomach, love handles, and inner thighs and buttocks). The product is to be worn for only 30 minutes but every day, and the website claims that if you follow the rules, one can lose about an inch (in each area) in 5 weeks. (The catch is that the money-back guarantee is only for 30 days after your purchase.) So I'm going to give it a shot and see how my pants feel after a few weeks of wearing them to determine whether or not I like them, but the research seems to suggest that this is a legitimate idea...now, we just need a real life guinea pig to see if it works! (Guess that's me!)
Go to http://www.freezeawayfat.com/ to check out more information and maybe even try your own pair...just remember, it's not a miracle, you will always need diet and exercise to lose weight and burn off fat, this just might help you get those final results you've been waiting for.

Tip #3: Did you know...
You can flatten your stomach and strengthen your abs just be constantly sucking in your stomach while doing every day things!
I have been standing/sitting up straight and sucking my stomach in 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year (despite when I'm sleeping and it's out of my control) since I was 14 and I've always looked like I have a flat stomach underneath my clothes! If you slouch and stick your stomach out, your muscles slowly start to form that way--sticking out--which you'll regret later. So work on your posture first, then work on constantly thinking about sucking your belly button in and DO IT!
It's so awesome...just the most simple tricks can make you look and feel your best!
