Finally Decided to Do It - Denver, CO

Day 17 pics I don't see much improvement although I know that I am really swollen today and I hope that is why :( I got my stage 2 garment and it hurt putting the thing on but feels so much better than stage 1 I slept so much better last night without the zippers and hooks digging into my thighs. I am a little scared of taking it on and off everday for a shower but guess Ill just suck it up!

Day 17 and the swelling is finally starting to go down, I can tell because the creases caused by my garment are way less! I am a little nervous since the right side of my lower ab is still bigger than the left and when I put my right leg up on my knee I see a crease to my inner thigh :( hoping that will go away. I am also very tender on my right hip and if I touch it wrong it feels like something is tearing... ugh I really just want to be healed already. On a good note bruising is really fading I can walk much better now although I feel really stiff and think maybe I should start streching? Did anyone strech after lipo? My stage 2 garment will be in today and I can't wait to not have the zippers digging into the side of my legs :) Sleeping is getting better and I now sleep about 6 hours straight. My PS told me not to remove the steri strips and let them fall off by themselves, how long does that usually take only a few have fallen off and some of the others are really starting to bug me. Will get the pics up and hope to see more improvement that way than I see in the mirror at this point.

Day 12 and I feel pretty good, still really sore on my thighs and still can't sleep right... My stomach looks kind of stranges where only the right side looks swollen and is hard?? I have started doing self massage and it feels so good!!! Not looking the way I want it to but I am still swollen even have kankles, so I am trying not to freak out yet! I will post 2 week pics this weekend :)
