I have had to make a few adjustments though, I have stopped wearing jeans and started wearing cords as they are a bit more forgiving and also I have bought some elasticated belts that have some give in them.

The elasticated belt has been excellent, I am able to eat loads and drink lots of beer without any restriction, think the belt must be shrinking though as I am sure it was longer to start with

Advantages; Easy for charger placement, can move about with charging coil in place and I think it will be easier and less painful should the IPG need replacing.

Disadvantages; Easy to knock the IPG and that hurts, grandson kicks me there whenever I pick him up (little sod), and I have heard that it can hinder lovemaking, I can't verify this as I have only had the unit in six months and I won't get to find out till Christmas

Thanks for the reply and the list of Pros & Cons. One reason I considered under the armpit was that it would be more protected, though having played with the grandkids this morning I'm less sure about that. I'm not sure about the behind the hip area due to the amount of driving I do.

I'm hoping not to need the expandable pants as I intend being good and doing a bit of walking once I'm up and about, as that seems to be the safest activity to fit within the BLAST guidelines. Not saying I'm gunna eat any less. But a bit of optimism never goes astray.

Maybe once I get off my meds I might be able to enjoy the occasional cider again. We have a 0.0 BAC limit at work so that stops me from over indulging.
