Feel better babe. I'm sure you're looking good.
I don't know how people deal with this. This is a serious struggle!
We are all rooting for you!! I'm now 3 weeks post but I think the second day was the worst. It will get better by the day! Get lots of rest, move slow...just take it easy. You're body is officially in recovery mode. Wishing you all the best! :)
Are you eating plenty of greens or taking over the counter stool softener?. Are you taking narcotics? Drinking plenty of fluid? Prune juice also works for my patients but tastes nasty.
I'm 3 Days post.... for me the hardest thing is getting up out of bed back into bed and by the far the worst.... taking off and on my compression garment is murder. I also need to stop reading all the negative comments about people having this done and not getting good results it's really starting to get to me... I mean don't get me wrong people are welcome to post anything they want its just me, I need to stop reading them. I just can't imagine spending all this money all this recovery time and not getting any results.
Everyone's results are different! This is a real challenge I didn't expect all this. But I'm sure we can make it through the storm
How's it going babe?
actually doing pretty good today! getting in and out of bed has become pretty easy its still sore but much better. like everybody else I want to look in the mirror and see results and of course there's not much of anything because of the swelling. my right Thigh is still way more swollen and way more bruised then my left its weird. how's everything going with you? thank you very much for checking up on me!!

Procedure

This is NOT a easy procedure. But I'm sure after all the swelling goes down I will see a lot of change. I enjoyed the hospital and everyone the procedure was a success but tomorrow I get a new garment thank God! Because the hospital garment has my skin looking bad..I'm still happy I went with Cortez everyone is professional. I have Lipo burns but I'm sure they will give me medicine for it. I'm not ready to post pictures but I will after the drain is out.

Crazy weekend before surgery

We have not been able to get ready for my surgery Friday because of his issue...he needs to get well so that he can take care of my ass

Can't wait to see after pics, I'm trying to find a good ps I'm the states that can handle someone umm thicker so I can kinda get a idea of what my results could be
Today is your day. You are in my prayer. Can't wait to see your rocking new body.
my surgery is in 5 days I'm going to pick up my prescriptions here in a little bit plus my arnica.... good luck to those that are coming up. for those who have had it what was your pain level like I am so nervous about this whole thing. I have waited years to be able to do this and I'm also getting a tummy tuck and a month I want so much to be able to look into the mirror and feel good about myself. my self esteem is in the sewer right now. I have been with my man for 3 years and he has never even seen me in a bra and panties that's how horrible I feel about myself. I would love to be able to talk to someone who understands what I'm going through or has a similar story
You will be just fine! I'm sure of it I will keep you posted on my results
