So, it is now approaching the 5 month mark. I have continued to follow and read posts here on lipo. Here is my take on it at this point. I STILL have very mild soreness on my flanks, and still swell a little bit after being on my feet too long, or working out too much. So it is not in my opinion, a easy fix. I have also, since my lipo been hitting the gym extra hard, and doing cardio and eating very healthy. I was doing a lot of this before, but the surgery has inspired me to do more. So what you see is a combo of both. Now, many would say, well, why not just do that and forgo the surgery? Well, over the years I did do that, and stomach fat was still there and over the years was getting worse. So I don't think lipo is a magic pill, and expectations need to be checked, but I think it is an amazing tool, to be implemented along with other life changes.

I am a few days shy of 10 weeks. I am still happy I did this, but I have to say that the recovery is not nearly as rapid and smooth as one might believe from tv shows such as extreme makeover. My obliques are still pretty hard and a little tender to the touch. I have to put my girdle on for short periods of time after working out because I swell. I can see alot of flattening and improvement from the side, front on not as much, but I suspect there is still some residual mild swelling and shrinking that needs to go on.
