Thanks for the update. Wow any learned lessons for those about to have lipo?

You look great! What did you have done?
Thanks lipo of the upper and lower abs as well as flanks and back
Thanks! Do your results still look good? I ask because I am (seriously) considering a similar procedure but with lots of research done i hear you gain the weight back in odd areas( back, arms, cheeks) . I just wanted to see if someone who has had the procedure is happy
Hi he charged 15gs just for lipo alone?
How are you now?

Hi Deeva, judging by the pre/post pictures your surgery certainly paid off;-) I am scheduled for a lipo with Dr. Schulman and was wondering how even did your lipo turn out.. I am overall of a slender shape, but with the same problem areas as so many of us (flanks and tummy). Again, in the pic above your stomach looks very even.. Would love to hear from you soon!
Thanks have you done your surgery yet ?
How soon after surgery did you go back to work?
I took off 2 weeks before going back to work. I actually did my surgery the week before hurricane sandy so I used that time to recooperate
2 weeks later
If u need to lose more weight use isagenix
I am looking to have my surgery performed in either November or March and wouldn't mind buddying up with someone for the journey! If anyone might be interested let me know!
You should do November

Now 18 weeks post op trying to eat and stay healthy. Also during the winter months I use my wii fit a lot when I can't make it to the gym. I don't regret my surgery. Any weight I have gained is now going to my butt (which is not a bad thing lol) hope you ladies (and gents) are healing well. It definitely is a journey that will get better with time.

Yes I saw your pics before. Thanking you again for these encouraging words
Your welcome Its always good to have a great support system. You will be fine in time for graduation :)
Hello did you lose all your tummy fat?
Yes take a look at my pre-op and post op pics.
I am asking all: what kind of exercise do you do and how often? Be honest...
I do excercises on the wii fit and also a lot of abdominal excercises (crunches) also if I am at the gym I utilize the elliptical. I try for 2-3 times a week but there's some weeks where I have fallen off not going to lie. Lol definitely need to be more consistent. I think I need to make better food choices lol sometimes that's my weakness. Happy healing. Takes a lot to maintain.
Hi Deeva... how many liters or CC's did they remove and when did you start to notice the swelling decreasing and when did u really start to see a change in your figure... you look awesome:)
Thanks sorry for the lAte response he took out about 13 lbs by 12 weeks you will notice a significant difference. But even after 2 weeks my stomach was going down just have to maintain it.
