WORTH IT$9,000
If anyone hated that compression suit as much as I did.. Walmart actually saved me, I switched over to just a spanx cami however kept having to adjust it to ensure it covered my hips. Well yesterday I went to walmart & they had granny panties (they come all the way up to my breast) with hooks between your legs as well as from your FACA (fat above couchie area) to your breasts its sooo KOOL and it was only wait for it $11.00

You looked like me when you were on the procedure table, completely out of it. You look l I or you are mal I my good strides in recovery. I have bought those granny pants with the hook and eye also. I still wear the second stage CG but hate it. How quickly did your scabs come off? I am 3weeks out and still have the front lower scabs. Did you get hard lumps? When did yours start to go away? Asking because you posting s round s so much like Mine. Many of the postings are twenty-something. Keep us posted on your great results.

I have died and gone to have a flat stomach heaven. I am out of the CG wearing a medium spanx top with the foam and a added wrap for tighter compression however I only wear it doing the day(at night I wear nothing and sleep on my stomach). My doctor suggested that I stay compressed as long as possible for the best results. My flanks are still pretty sore (no pain no gain) but its so worth it. I bought an elliptical with the intentions of starting my much needed change of habits (wish me luck). TTFN

When did the numbness go away? I'm about a week post op and I'm very swollen during the day but still feels numb

My numbness is JUST starting to go away and I'm 6 weeks in. I itch like mad crazy.

Hello McM88, I am 4 weeks post opt and still have numbness in some areas. From what I have read you will get most feeling back within 6 weeks, but it could take up to 6 months. Try to continue to massage/rub the areas that you need to come back. From what my Doctor explained...there is sometimes scar tissue and the blood has to learn to flow back though that area again, you know like your arm a leg "falling asleep"...so it is the same with the numbness. Hope this information helps. Lashun69

Knewt, I am laughing about the itching because I just told my Husband that I wanted to scratch myself with a brush tonight...LOL. The itching a GREAT sign of healing...but it is driving me crazy too...so I feel your pain. LOL. I am only 4 weeks post opt...so I guess I still have a ways to go. Take care, Lashun69
