7 months PO

I went back in 2 weeks ago for some revisions on my belly button and on my sides (small dog ears). Very easy procedure about an hour long in office. i have to go back near my 1 year and get the small vertical line from where my old belly button was pulled down. that line really bothers me, as you can see in my 2 week pictures it sticks out of panties and bathing suits. I love my results. At 7 months, I still have numbness around middle of scar and near belly button, swelling/bloating that feels as though I could split my incision (mostly with intake of bad foods). I will say I love my lipo results and after my one year I may look into having a little more. I am still down about 10lbs from surgery and am still hoping to lose a bit more. Cannot believe it has been 7 months....I would so do it all over again:) Love the changes it has made in my apperance and my confidence!

7 weeks PO: Wow time has really seemed to fly by! Everything is moving along very nicely. I am back to all normal activities and walking up to 5 miles 3 times a week, ready to get back to personal trainer and spin class November 1! I feel great and have had a great recovery! I have been actually asked if I had a boob job:) I wear a spanx most everyday and sometimes sleep in my CG. I also wear my CG when I do my long walks and maybe when I get home after a long days work ( hair dresser, so on my feet a lot). The CG also helps with the lipo areas. They still feel like pins and needles are in them. But yet I want to itch the stew out of them and it doesn't hurt! Sometimes if someone puts there arm around me I want to punch them in the face:) I can go with out spanx for short times but I feel very heavy at my incision when I do. My swelling can still be very bad but nothing a lot of water and getting off my feet won't fix. I have purchased new clothes, gone down in a size or 2 so that feels great! I love the way I look in my clothes now and I will say it has been a long time since I was able to just put something on and not have to think about if it was going to hide my stomach! That right there makes it all worth it for me:) I have had a great recovery so far slow but good. My PS told me it would be Jan. Feb. when I would really be good. I cannot imagine I'll be any smaller but no more swelling and pins and needles will be awesome! I really need to post some new pictures.... I'll get on that. My hubby and I always have an adult Halloween party and for the first time I am going slutty:) I'll post a few of those! Happy Flat Tummys!

7 weeks post I just copied and pasted it from comments.


12 weeks PO: Happy Thanksgiving! Been about 5 weeks since I've checked in. Busy working and getting back to life. My progress is pretty much the same. I have been running, lifting weights, and doing ab work. Wow, does it feel different when I do ab work now! I am hoping for some kind of a pack of something by summer:) I still have swelling in the afternoon and some heaviness under my incision at times, my lipo areas itch at times and are sometimes tender and tingly. It is a fact when people say this process is long! I love the way my body looks and feels in clothes. I think my stomach at times could be flatter but my husband says its in my head:) We are are worst critics:) I get tons of compliments and people that don't know I have had the surgery ask if I've lost weight.
All in all.....happy, happy, happy! Very thankful this holiday season!
