4.5 months and feeling fab!
MachineNovember 12, 2014
It's now been 4.5 months since my surgery and I am totally back to normal. Back at the gym smashing it at kickboxing, spin and weights. I went on a cruise mid September and strutted my stuff, even wearing single tops and dresses with my arms on show - a little self conscious of my arm scars but in the end my arms were looking that damn good I wanted to show them off. I still have a little tightness under the right elbow area but I think that is more nerve pain and will take a little longer to heal. The only other soreness I have is if I hang, as in doing a pull-up/chin up its hurts my waist area with the pulling motion, as the waist area was tightened up a lot.
I did put on 4kg on the cruise, so my weight ballooned to 73kg. So for the past 6 weeks I have been on a cleansing/detoxing/wellness program and am down to 62kg, with my goals of 59kg now within my sights. Finally pretty happy with my body, my husband now calls me a bag of bones coz he thinks I've lost too much weight, but I have to be the one to make that call.
Have a review with my PS yesterday, he was thrilled to bits with the results and has emailed me today asking for permission to use my photos for publication. I was a bit chuffed about that, although my recent photos show a spray tan ( which I had done for a day at the races where I decided to go all out and get frocked up). I also mentioned an inner thigh leg lift to him, which I'm thinking of doing in another 12 months or so, really hating my legs (front view) the more weight I lose. Shall post again at goal weight. Hope everyone is just as pleased with their results as I am :))))

You look freaking gorgeous. I would say the scars are worth getting the definition as I didn't see any scars on your arms. You don't even look like you could be the woman in your preop photos! Well done! Beautiful!

Thank you so much for your lovely words. Didn't realise there was so much difference until I put the before and after photos side by side. Very happy ;)

You can tell you have really worked at sculpting yourself post op too! I love seeing stories like yours. You deserve all the "whoop whoops!' you can get.

Woop woop - love that. Yes, it's been bloody hard work and taken a lot of willpower diet wise - but certainly worth it.

I can see why your surgeon wants to use your photos as they are some of the very best I have seen...I remember that both of our surgeons do the internal stitching which leads to the very fine scar we both have...So happy for you!!!

Thanks AZDee. You're very generous in your comments. Yes the scars are healing beautifully. I don't know why other surgeons don't use this method, it certainly seems to produce the best result :)

You look fantastic. Your arm scar is well hidden and with your arms I would be proud to show them off - scar or no scar. A lot of hard work went into your body and you should show it off.

Yes I've been putting in extra time and effort to get some guns. Finally the definition is coming through. I'm starting to like the mirror a bit more now :)

Hi machine: You look amazing! You have a cute little figure and I, too, would be proud to "strut myself" with your excellent results. Congratulations...and thanks for your incredible support throughout my journey. Looking forward to keeping tabs on you! :-)

I may have been MIA lately but I have still been following your progress. You too are doing so well - still smashing it at the gym I see. We put those young ones to shame :)

Arm compression photo
MachineAugust 18, 2014
For my arm lift a wore a compression sleeve on each arm. Simply a matter of sliding it on an off. I only needed to wear the sleeves 4 weeks, but kept them on for 6-7, as it helped keep the silicone tape in place. Very comfy, no irritation. Most physiotherapists use this for knees, ankles etc. it comes in a roll and can be cut to the length to suit yourself. In Australia it's called Tubigrip, may go by another name in other countries...just an option :)
